S&#8217;mores<\/h3>\n<p>A campfire classic, s&#8217;mores are warm, gooey, and chocolaty! Just put a marshmallow or two on a skewer and roast them over your the fire&nbsp;until they are golden brown. Then split a graham cracker in half and put a piece of chocolate and the warm marshmallow in the middle. For an extra kick, replace the chocolate with a piece of your favorite candy bar (I like Snickers!). It&#8217;s delicious!<\/p>\n<h3>2. Hot Chocolate<a href=\"https:\/\/movinginsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/hot-cocoa.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-25474\" src=\"https:\/\/movinginsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/hot-cocoa-300x198.jpg\" alt=\"Campfire drinks and snacks\" width=\"300\" height=\"198\"><\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Also an easy recipe to make, fill a large pan with milk and heat over your campfire. When the milk gets hot, add several packets of instant hot chocolate mix and stir for several minutes. Give the liquid a minute to cool, and serve in insulated cups (this doubles as a hand warmer, too!). Add peppermint flavor and top with whipped cream.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>3.&nbsp;Pigs in a Blanket<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/movinginsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/pigs.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-25497\" src=\"https:\/\/movinginsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/pigs-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"pigs in a blanket\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/pigs-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/pigs.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>A little less traditional, but grilling pigs in a blanket over a campfire is easier than it sounds! Take a roll of biscuit dough and wrap it over a sausage or mini hot dog on a skewer. Set over the campfire for about 10 minutes and turn occasionally until the biscuit is golden brown on the edges. Be careful not to burn it, and enjoy while warm.<\/p>\n<p>For more holiday treat ideas, check out this <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/uhaul\/diy-holiday-d%C3%A9cor-and-recipes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pinterest page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>What&#8217;s your favorite campfire drink or snack?
