Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 9 sheets graham crackers
- 2 bars chocolate (Hersheys Dark, 4.25 ounces / 120 grams)
- 20–24 large marshmallows (rectangular Stackers preferred)
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Batter Ingredients:
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon oil
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 cup + 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
Frying Ingredients:
- 1 quart frying oil
- 1 candy thermometer
Instructions
- Meticulously construct a layered graham cracker base within a prepared pan, creating a foundation for the decadent treat.
- Carefully drizzle melted chocolate across the graham cracker layer, strategically placing chocolate bars and marshmallows to create a rich, indulgent filling.
- Seal the layers with additional graham crackers, then refrigerate until the entire composition becomes firm and cohesive.
- Craft a silky batter by whisking together egg, milk, and oil, then gently incorporating flour, sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt until smooth and lump-free.
- Extract the chilled s’mores creation and slice into precise, bite-sized squares, maintaining their structural integrity.
- Heat oil to a precise 375°F, creating a perfect frying environment for transforming the assembled squares.
- Delicately dunk each square into the prepared batter, ensuring a complete and even coating that will crisp beautifully.
- Immerse the batter-covered squares into the hot oil, frying in small batches until they achieve a golden, crispy exterior, approximately two minutes.
- Transfer the fried delicacies to paper towels, allowing excess oil to drain and maintaining their delicate crunch.
- Serve immediately while the exterior remains crisp and the interior maintains a molten, gooey consistency for maximum sensory delight.
Notes
- Chill the s’mores completely before battering to prevent falling apart during frying.
- Use cold ingredients for the batter to achieve a crispier, lighter coating that doesn’t absorb too much oil.
- Keep oil temperature consistent at 375°F to ensure even golden-brown exterior without burning or undercooking.
- Experiment with alternative graham cracker flavors like cinnamon or chocolate for unique taste variations.
