Ingredients
Scale
S’more Components
- Large marshmallows (enough for desired servings)
- Chocolate bars or chocolate chips (enough for desired servings)
- Graham cracker squares (enough for desired servings, 2 per s’more)
Batter
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup milk
For Frying
- Vegetable oil (canola or peanut oil preferred, for deep frying)
Optional Coating and Garnishes
- Cinnamon or sugar for dusting
- Powdered sugar for serving
- Caramel or chocolate sauce for drizzling
Instructions
- Assemble the S’mores: Sandwich a piece of chocolate and a marshmallow between two graham cracker squares. Ensure the marshmallow is slightly larger than the crackers to create a gooey center once fried.
- Prepare the Batter: In a bowl, whisk together eggs, flour, and milk until smooth and of pancake batter consistency — thick enough to cling to the s’mores but not too heavy.
- Heat the Oil: Pour vegetable oil into a deep pan or fryer and heat to 350°F (175°C). Maintain oil temperature carefully to ensure crispy, evenly cooked treats without excessive oil absorption.
- Coat and Fry: Dip each assembled s’more fully into the batter, then gently lower it into the hot oil. Fry for 1-2 minutes on each side, turning once, until golden brown and crispy.
- Drain and Serve: Remove the deep-fried s’mores with a slotted spoon and place on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve warm immediately for the best gooey and crunchy contrast.
Notes
- Keep s’mores uniformly sized to ensure even cooking and melting.
- Use a thermometer to monitor the oil temperature closely for perfect results.
- Do not overcrowd the frying pan; fry in small batches to maintain oil temperature and prevent sogginess.
- Prepare your workspace in advance as these treats are best enjoyed fresh and warm.
- Experiment with cinnamon sugar or powdered sugar coatings for extra flavor after frying.
