Ingredients You’ll Need

12 regular-size marshmallows: These fluffy gems form the base of our pops, lending that signature marshmallow flavor.
12 lollipop sticks: Wooden sticks work best to stabilize the marshmallows and provide easy handling.
2 (1.55 ounce) Hershey’s milk chocolate bars: The rich and creamy flavor of classic Hershey’s chocolate is unbeatable. Feel free to substitute with dark chocolate for a slightly richer taste!
⅓ cup graham cracker crumbs: This adds the iconic crunch and flavor of s’mores. Crushed digestive biscuits can work too if you don’t have graham crackers.

How to Make Smores Marshmallow Pops

Prepare Your Work Area: Line a plate or baking sheet with parchment paper. This prevents the marshmallow pops from sticking once they’re set.
Stick the Marshmallows: Carefully push one lollipop stick into the center of each marshmallow. Be cautious not to go through the top, as you want them to stay intact.
Melt the Chocolate: Break the Hershey’s chocolate bars into pieces and place them in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave the chocolate in 15-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until melted and smooth. This method prevents the chocolate from overheating.
Get the Graham Cracker Ready: While your chocolate melts, pour the graham cracker crumbs into a small bowl. This will be your coating.
Dip the Marshmallows: Take each marshmallow and dip it into the melted chocolate, turning it gently to coat the sides thoroughly.
Coat with Graham Cracker Crumbs: Immediately roll the chocolate-covered marshmallow in the graham cracker crumbs, ensuring an even layer sticks to the chocolate.
Set Them Down: Place each finished marshmallow pop back on the parchment-lined plate.
Repeat the Process: Continue dipping and coating the remaining marshmallows until they’re all finished.
Firm Them Up: Refrigerate the pops for 5 to 10 minutes, just until the chocolate has set. They’ll become ready to nibble as soon as the chocolate feels firm to the touch.

Storing & Reheating

To store your S’mores Marshmallow Pops, keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. If you need to keep them longer, refrigerate them for better freshness—just ensure the container is sealed tightly, as refrigeration can slightly affect texture. If you want to savor them even longer, you can freeze them for up to three months. To refresh them, simply let them sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes before indulging!

Chef’s Helpful Tips

Ensure your chocolate is fully melted and smooth to avoid clumping when coating the marshmallows.
Use room-temperature marshmallows for easier dipping; they’ll adhere better to the chocolate.
If you’re adding toppings like sprinkles or nuts, do it immediately after rolling in the graham cracker crumbs.
Keep an eye on the microwave while melting chocolate; it can go from melted to burnt quickly.
Consider using flavored chocolates, such as caramel or white chocolate, for a fun twist!

S’mores Marshmallow Pops are just a delight waiting to happen in your kitchen. Not only do they encapsulate the delicious taste of classic s’mores, but they’re also incredibly easy to whip up and share. What you create can easily be personalized with toppings or flavor variations that resonate with your personal taste.

Recipe FAQs

Can I use different types of chocolate?

Absolutely! While the classic Hershey’s milk chocolate is a fan favorite, you can experiment with various types such as dark chocolate, white chocolate, or even flavored chocolates like caramel for a unique spin on the recipe.

How can I make these gluten-free?

To make gluten-free S’mores Marshmallow Pops, simply substitute graham cracker crumbs with any gluten-free cookie or gluten-free graham crackers. Just ensure your chocolate is also gluten-free.

Can I store these marshmallow pops for later?

Yes! You can store them in an airtight container at room temperature for two days or refrigerate them for about a week. If you need to keep them longer, freezing them for up to three months works well, too!

What can I use instead of graham cracker crumbs?

If you’re out of graham crackers, crushed digestive biscuits, vanilla wafers, or even upcycled cookies can serve as great alternatives to add that sought-after crunch and flavor to your marshmallow pops!

With their gooey center and crunchy exterior, S’mores Marshmallow Pops offer an easy way to treat yourself and your loved ones. Don’t hesitate to experiment with toppings and flavors, and let your creativity shine through! Enjoy creating these delightful sweets!
