Fried S’mores Bombs Recipe
Ingredients:
12 large marshmallows
6 graham crackers, finely crushed
12 squares of chocolate or a handful of chocolate chips
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup breadcrumbs
Vegetable oil for frying
Optional for garnish: powdered sugar, chocolate sauce, or whipped cream
Instructions:
Begin by flattening each marshmallow with the palm of your hand. This creates a better surface for building your s’mores bomb.
Assemble the S’mores:
Place a chocolate square or a sprinkle of chocolate chips in the center of each flattened marshmallow.
Carefully roll the marshmallow in crushed graham cracker crumbs until well coated.
Freezing:
Place the marshmallow treats on a tray and freeze for about 30 minutes. This step helps them maintain their shape during the frying process.
Set Up for Frying:
Prepare for frying by setting up three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.
Coating:
Dip each chilled marshmallow first in flour, then in beaten egg, and finally coat thoroughly with breadcrumbs.
Frying:
Heat the oil in a deep fryer or a large pot to 350°F (175°C).
Fry the marshmallows in batches until each one is golden brown and crispy, typically about 1-2 minutes.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the bombs from the oil and let them drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Serving:
Serve your Fried S’mores Bombs warm, sprinkled with powdered sugar and drizzled with chocolate sauce for added decadence.
Serving Tips:
Immediate Enjoyment: These treats are best enjoyed warm, when the chocolate and marshmallow inside are deliciously gooey.
Sweet Garnish: Enhance their sweetness and visual appeal with a dusting of powdered sugar.
Extra Indulgence: Drizzle with warm chocolate or caramel sauce to elevate the flavor.
Ice Cream Pairing: Accompany with a scoop of vanilla ice cream to balance the warmth of the bombs with cool creaminess, creating a delightful texture and temperature contrast.
Fried S’mores Bombs are more than just a dessert; they are an experience, combining the joy of s’mores with the thrill of a fried treat. Dive into this recipe and delight in the explosion of flavors
