Fried S’mores Bombs Delight

Fried S’mores Bombs bring together everything you love about the campfire treat in crispy golden bites The oozy center contrasts perfectly with the crunchy graham coating and the chocolate is more melty and satisfying than any packaged bar Whenever I crave something playful and nostalgic I whip up a batch for friends Movie nights and sleepovers will never be the same

When I first made these for a weekend party they disappeared before dinner even started Now my nephew tries to sneak one before I finish the batch

Ingredients

• Marshmallow creme: brings instant gooeyness and perfectly binds the centers Try to pick a fresh tub with the fluffiest texture
• Chocolate spread: creates velvety richness and classic flavor Look for one with real cocoa and minimal palm oil
• Crushed graham crackers: offer that sweet toasty crunch If using whole crackers crush gently for some texture instead of a fine powder
• Oil for frying: ensures a crisp exterior Choose a neutral highheat oil such as peanut or canola for best results

Instructions

Preparation:

Mix marshmallow creme and chocolate spread thoroughly in a small bowl until no streaks remain The result should look glossy and smooth

Forming the Bombs:

Scoop out a tablespoon of your mixture Roll between your hands into a uniform ball If it gets sticky chill your hands with cold water

Coating:

Pour crushed graham crackers into a shallow bowl Roll each marshmallow chocolate ball until fully coated Press gently so the crumbs adhere well

Repeat:

Continue scooping rolling and coating until you use every bit of mixture You should have neat rounds about 1 inch wide

Frying:

Heat oil in a deep fryer or heavy pan Set temperature to three hundred seventy five degrees Fahrenheit or one hundred ninety degrees Celsius Test oil with a tiny crumb which should sizzle on contact Carefully add coated balls in batches Do not crowd the pan

Fry Time:

Cook each ball for one to two minutes turning if needed for even browning Look for a rich golden color on all sides

Draining:

Use a slotted spoon to lift bombs from oil Set them on paper towels to catch excess oil Let them cool slightly

Serving:

Drizzle extra chocolate spread over each bomb while still warm Serve them right away for the best gooey bite

My favorite part is the first bite when molten chocolate marshmallow spills out These instantly bring everyone back to laughter around a summer bonfire

Storage Tips

If you are lucky enough to have extras place them in an airtight container Once cooled store in the fridge They keep best for about two days For crispy results reheat in a hot oven instead of the microwave so the outside stays crunchy

Ingredient Substitutions

Swap marshmallow creme for mini marshmallows but melt and cool before using If you run out of graham crackers try digestive biscuits or vanilla wafers for coating For a nutty twist add a spoonful of peanut butter or hazelnut spread to the filling

Serving Suggestions

Pile Fried S’mores Bombs high on a platter and dust lightly with confectioners sugar Try serving with fresh berries for a dessert platter at parties These also pair incredibly well with a scoop of vanilla ice cream when you want that next level treat

Cultural and Historical Context

Classic American s’mores date all the way back to early twentieth century camping guides This fried version keeps those flavors but adds carnival energy and year round accessibility They are a reminder that fun food can be as memorable as formal meals

Seasonal Adaptations

Success Stories

The first time I made these with my niece she proudly declared them better than campfire s’mores Her friends now request these for every sleepover Adults are just as smitten especially when you pass these around at a backyard BBQ

Freezer Meal Conversion
