Tired of the same old smore's around the campfire? Well, I can't say that this dessert is any healthier but having apples sure doesn't help. The spicy cinnamon flavor coupled with sweet apples and dried cranberries will make this campfire dessert your go to!

Camp Hero Notes
- Using any kind of sweet apple for this recipe will blend well with the cinnamon candies. However, feel free to use tart apples as well like a granny smith.
- If you don't like dried cranberries you can also use raisins or golden raisins.
- You really don't need any sugar for this recipe. It will likely burn as well. So picking a sweet apple will help!
- It may seem like a lot of butter but when the butter mixes with the apple's juices and the melting candy it will make a great sauce.
- If you want to make this at home away from the campsite, which I highly recommend, make sure to pick up some vanilla ice cream to eat it with!
