Marshmallow Filling
- 1 package of 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 Garnish
- Oil for frying (vegetable or canola oil works well)
- Powdered sugar for dusting
- Heat Oil: In a deep fryer or a large, heavy-bottomed pot, heat oil to 375°F (190°C). Use a thermometer to maintain consistent temperature for even frying.
- Prepare Marshmallows: Insert a chocolate chip into the center of each large marshmallow, gently pushing it in to create a gooey center when fried.
- Batter Coating: Dip each chocolate-stuffed marshmallow into the prepared pancake batter, ensuring a full and even coat around the marshmallow to help the crumbs stick and create a crisp exterior.
- Apply Graham Cracker Crumbs: Roll the batter-coated marshmallows thoroughly in the crushed graham cracker crumbs to form an additional crunchy layer.
- Fry Bombs: Carefully drop the coated marshmallows into the hot oil. Fry for about 2 minutes or until the exterior is golden brown and crispy. Turn them gently if needed for even cooking.
- Drain: Use a slotted spoon to remove the fried s’mores bombs from the oil. Place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Serve: While still warm, dust the fried s’mores bombs with powdered sugar to add a touch of sweetness and an elegant finish. Serve immediately for best gooey results.
Notes
- Maintain the oil temperature at 375°F for perfect frying without soggy or greasy bombs.
- If pancake batter is too thin, the coating may not stick well; thicken slightly if necessary.
- Use large marshmallows for ease of stuffing and less melting mess.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the warm, gooey center before it cools and hardens.
- Be cautious when frying; hot oil can splatter. Use long tongs or a slotted spoon.
