Marshmallow Filling
- 1 package large marshmallows
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Batter and Coating
- 1 cup pancake batter, prepared according to package instructions
- 1 package graham crackers, crushed into crumbs
Frying and Finishing
- Oil for frying (vegetable or canola oil recommended)
- Powdered sugar for dusting
- Prepare the Oil: Heat oil in a deep fryer or a large, heavy-bottomed pot to 375°F (190°C). Use enough oil to fully submerge the marshmallows for even frying.
- Stuff the Marshmallows: Carefully insert a chocolate chip into the center of each large marshmallow, creating a gooey chocolate core.
- Coat with Batter: Dip each stuffed marshmallow into the prepared pancake batter, ensuring it’s fully and evenly coated to help the crumbs stick and create a crispy exterior.
- Roll in Graham Cracker Crumbs: Immediately roll the batter-coated marshmallows in the crushed graham cracker crumbs until well covered.
- Deep Fry: Gently drop the coated marshmallows into the hot oil and fry for about 2 minutes or until they turn golden brown and crispy on the outside.
- Drain Excess Oil: Remove the fried s’mores bombs using a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain any excess oil.
- Dust and Serve: While still warm, dust the fried s’mores bombs with powdered sugar and serve immediately for best gooey flavor and texture.
Notes
- Be careful when frying as the marshmallows can expand and bubble up in the hot oil.
- Use a candy or deep-fry thermometer to keep the oil temperature steady at 375°F (190°C) for optimal crispiness.
- Serve these treats warm for the best melted chocolate and soft marshmallow experience.
- Can be made ahead to the batter-coating step and fried fresh before serving.
