Introduction

Fried S’mores Bombs are a fun and indulgent twist on the classic campfire treat. Crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside, these bite-sized delights combine marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crackers for an irresistible dessert. Perfect for sharing or enjoying as a special snack.

Ingredients

• 1 package of large marshmallows
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips
• 1 package graham crackers, crushed into crumbs
• 1 cup pancake batter, prepared according to package instructions
• Oil for frying
• Powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

1. Step 1: Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 375°F (190°C).
2. Step 2: Insert a chocolate chip into the center of each marshmallow by gently pressing it in.
3. Step 3: Dip the stuffed marshmallows into the prepared pancake batter, making sure they are completely coated.
4. Step 4: Roll the batter-coated marshmallows in the crushed graham cracker crumbs until fully covered.
5. Step 5: Carefully drop the marshmallows into the hot oil and fry for about 2 minutes or until golden brown.
6. Step 6: Remove the fried bombs from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
7. Step 7: Dust with powdered sugar and serve while still warm for the best gooey texture.

Tips & Variations

• Use flavored chocolate chips like mint or peanut butter for a unique twist.
• Make sure the oil is hot enough to prevent soggy coating—use a thermometer for accuracy.
• Try adding a small piece of fruit like a strawberry slice inside for extra flavor.
• For a healthier option, bake instead of frying, but expect less crispiness.

Storage

Fried S’mores Bombs are best enjoyed fresh and warm. If you need to store leftovers, keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 day. Reheat briefly in a warm oven to restore some crispness, but avoid microwaving as the coating may become soggy.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I use mini marshmallows instead of large ones?

Large marshmallows work best because they hold the chocolate and coating well. Mini marshmallows may melt too quickly and are harder to stuff.

Is it possible to bake these instead of frying?

Yes, you can bake them at 375°F (190°C) for about 10-12 minutes on a greased baking sheet. However, the texture will be less crispy compared to frying.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

Ingredients

• 1 package of large marshmallows
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips
• 1 package graham crackers, crushed into crumbs
• 1 cup pancake batter, prepared according to package instructions
• Oil for frying (vegetable or canola oil recommended)
• Powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

1. Heat the oil: In a deep fryer or a large heavy-bottomed pot, heat oil to 375°F (190°C) ensuring there is enough oil to fully submerge the marshmallows.
2. Prepare marshmallows: Insert a single chocolate chip into the center of each large marshmallow carefully, sealing it inside to create a gooey surprise.
3. Coat marshmallows: Dip each stuffed marshmallow into the prepared pancake batter, making sure it is evenly and completely coated for a crispy exterior when fried.
4. Roll in graham cracker crumbs: Immediately roll the batter-dipped marshmallows in the crushed graham cracker crumbs, pressing lightly to adhere the crumbs well.
5. Fry the marshmallows: Carefully and gently drop the coated marshmallows into the hot oil, frying for approximately 2 minutes or until they turn a beautiful golden brown, turning if needed for even frying.
6. Drain excess oil: Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried s’mores bombs from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain any excess oil.
7. Serve warm: Dust the warm fried s’mores bombs generously with powdered sugar and serve immediately for the best gooey, crunchy experience.

Notes

• Be cautious when frying to avoid oil splatters and never overcrowd the pot to maintain the oil temperature.
• Use fresh oil for frying to keep the flavor clean and crisp.
• If you don’t have a deep fryer, a heavy-bottomed pot works just as well for frying.
• These treats are best enjoyed immediately while still warm and gooey inside.
• For a fun twist, try different types of chocolate or add a small piece of peanut butter inside the marshmallows before frying.
