Use a cake pan and add a layer of sand place the alcohol burner to the outside of the pan to leave an open area for the marshmallows, chocolate and graham crackers. Place your stones in a pleasing way.

Add Fuel--Safety First

Add Alcohol to burner and light. WARNING---WARNING---Never ever add fuel to a flaming burner. Always ensure the flame is out and cool before adding alcohol. A square of folded aluminum foil can be kept near by to snuff the flame.

The alcohol burner is a simple container made from an aluminum bottle but any fire proof container that will hold one oz. of fuel will work. A 97% isopropyl alcohol works best.

Skewer your marshmallow and toast it to a golden brown or burnt if you like it that way. Then build your chocolate treat.

Store for Next Time

Indoor S'mores Hearth can be used outside for a small charming fire. Place the hearth in an open area away from combustible material. Remove burner and fill pan with alcohol enough to cover sand. Light--fire starts slow but once going it will last for ten minutes. Remember--Insure there is no flame and stones have cooled before refueling.
