Tips and Tricks for Perfect Fried S’mores

  • Freeze Before Frying: Freezing helps the marshmallows hold their shape and prevents premature melting during frying.

  • Maintain Oil Temperature: Keep the oil between 340°F–350°F for even frying without burning the outside.

  • Use a Thermometer: An instant-read thermometer ensures consistent oil temperature for best results.

Variations and Customizations

  • Nutella S’mores Bombs: Add a tiny dollop of Nutella inside the marshmallow before coating.

  • Peanut Butter Chocolate S’mores: Dip the marshmallow in a peanut butter and chocolate mixture before adding graham cracker crumbs.

  • Cinnamon Twist: Mix cinnamon into your graham crackers for a warm, spicy flavor!

Pairing Suggestions

  • Coffee or Hot Cocoa: A rich mocha or hot chocolate perfectly complements these gooey bites.

  • Vanilla Ice Cream: Serve bombs alongside a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream for a killer dessert combo.

  • Fresh Fruit: Strawberries or banana slices pair beautifully with the chocolatey richness.

Storage Instructions

  • Best Served Fresh: These bombs are at their best when freshly fried.

  • Short-Term Storage: Keep leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 day. Reheat in an air fryer or oven to re-crisp.

  • Freezing Not Recommended: The marshmallows may get too hard when frozen and reheated.

Popular Questions

Can I air fry these s’mores bombs instead of deep frying?

Yes! Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C), spray the bombs with cooking oil, and air fry for 5–7 minutes, turning once halfway through.

What type of chocolate works best?

Semi-sweet chocolate is ideal because it balances sweetness and richness. However, milk chocolate works great for an even sweeter treat!

Can I use mini marshmallows?

It’s better to stick with large marshmallows to create that dramatic molten center. Mini marshmallows can melt too quickly and make frying tricky.

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

  • 1 cup crushed graham crackers (68 graham cracker sheets)

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 1 cup milk

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • Vegetable oil (for deep frying)

  • Additional melted chocolate for drizzling

  • Extra crushed graham crackers for sprinkling


Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Chocolate Filling

  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and butter.

  2. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring in between, until fully melted and smooth.

  3. Let the chocolate cool slightly to thicken.

Step 2: Assemble the S’mores Bombs

  1. Dip each marshmallow halfway into the melted chocolate.

  2. Immediately roll the chocolate-coated side in crushed graham crackers.

  3. Place the coated marshmallows onto a parchment-lined tray.

  4. Freeze for 15 minutes to firm up.

Step 3: Make the Batter

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

  2. In a separate bowl, combine the milk, egg, and vanilla extract.

  3. Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking until a smooth, lump-free batter forms.

Step 4: Fry the S’mores Bombs

  1. Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a heavy skillet or pot to 350°F (175°C).

  2. Dip each frozen marshmallow bomb into the batter, fully coating it.

  3. Carefully lower each bomb into the hot oil with tongs or a slotted spoon.

  4. Fry for 1–2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.

  5. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

  • Drizzle extra melted chocolate over the fried bombs for added decadence.

  • Sprinkle with more crushed graham crackers.

  • Serve warm for the ultimate gooey, melt-in-your-mouth experience!

Notes

  • Double-coating the marshmallows in chocolate and graham crackers can make an even more indulgent crust.

  • Always monitor oil temperature carefully to avoid burnt outsides and undercooked insides.
