Deep Fried S'Mores Treat (Ready-to-Print Version)

Golden, crispy shells with molten marshmallow and chocolate—perfect sweet treat for gatherings and cozy nights.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Main Elements

01 - 8 whole graham cracker sheets
02 - 8 large marshmallows
03 - 4 Hershey's milk chocolate bars, broken into 8 pieces

→ Batter

04 - 1 cup prepared pancake mix
05 - 1 large egg
06 - 2/3 cup whole milk
07 - 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

→ For Frying

08 - 4 cups vegetable oil

# Step-by-Step Guide:

01 - Combine pancake mix, egg, whole milk, and vegetable oil in a medium mixing bowl. Stir until just blended with a few lumps remaining. Let rest 5 minutes for optimal consistency.
02 - Break each graham cracker sheet in half to create squares. Layer a marshmallow and half a chocolate bar between two graham cracker squares and press gently to adhere.
03 - Using tongs, dip each assembled s'more in prepared batter, turning to coat all sides evenly. Allow excess batter to drip off.
04 - Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot to 375°F (190°C). Carefully lower each battered s'more into the oil, holding with tongs for a few seconds to set the batter. Fry in batches for 3–4 minutes until golden brown and crisp.
05 - Remove fried s'mores with a slotted spoon and transfer to paper towels to drain excess oil. Let cool for 5–10 minutes before serving.

# Handy Tips:

01 - Always monitor oil temperature to ensure a consistent fry—use a thermometer if possible. Resting the batter helps it adhere for a crisp shell. Serve immediately for the best contrast of crispy coating and molten center.
02 - Store leftover s'mores in the refrigerator and reheat in an oven at 350°F (177°C) to restore some crispness. Avoid microwaving as it can make the outer shell soggy.
03 - For a less sweet profile, substitute dark chocolate in place of milk chocolate.
