Smores Dessert

Last year for my birthday, Chris took me to 91 in North Canton for dinner.  I ordered this dessert and it was fabulous!

It was simple to replicate and tastes just as good as the real thing, especially when it's cold outside and there is no way you're going to be able to toast marshmallows!

The recipe is listed for one individual dessert -- multiply as needed.  You could easily make this in a casserole dish for a crowd.

Make adjustments if you like more or less chocolate or marshmallows.  The first time I tried this I didn't make the graham cracker crumbs into a crust, and it was like eating sand!  The butter will create a nice texture -- it should be looser, lighter and fluffier than a graham cracker crust though.

Smores Dessert

1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 to 2 Tbsp butter, melted
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips
1/2 cup mini marshmallows

1.  Preheat oven or toaster oven to 350.  Combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until the consistency is moist but not soggy, adding more or less butter and crumbs as necessary.  Do not pack down into a crust -- leave it fluffy.  Bake for about 6-8 minutes or until crumbs are lightly browned.

2. Add chocolate chips and top with marshmallows.  Turn oven or toaster oven to broil.  Heat until marshmallows begin to turn brown, approximately 2 minutes or so.  WATCH CLOSELY because once they start to brown they can burn very easily.

  1. Not sure if you will see this since your post is from 2011, but.... I love this dessert and I tried to recreate it before as well. I put a layer of peanut butter on after the graham crust then the chocolate and then marshmallows.
