How do you make parflesnarfs (campfire treat)?
According to USA Today this is a gooey concoction of melted chocolate, marshmallows and popcorn made by campers. I need more details - quantities, etc. Do you toast the marshmallows over the campfire? What kind of chocolate - Hershey bars, chocolate chips, etc.? Is it done in a pan over the campfire? Thanks. This question has been asked several times and we are anxiously awaiting the answer--hope someone out there has the answer....

The way me make it (alhough we don't call it parflesnarfs)
is melt the chocolate and marshmallows together in a pan over the fire and then add popcorn.
You can shape them into balls or put them into a cake pan and cut into squares. It's kind of like popcorn balls or rice krispy treats.
We use chocolate chips and mini marshmallows because they melt faster.
