Whenever my husband and I take the kids camping, we always have to bring a batch of Rice Krispies Treats along. I'm not really sure how the tradition started, but it's become such a huge part of our yearly trip that we actually prefer them to s'mores. Sometimes I make them a little more s'more-like -- with melted chocolate and crumbled graham crackers on top. We eat them by the fire, tell crazy jokes and fall asleep under the stars.
