Description
Fried S’mores Bombs are a playful twist on the classic campfire treat, featuring gooey marshmallow and chocolate wrapped in biscuit dough, deep-fried to golden perfection. These bite-sized desserts are quick, easy, and perfect for parties or family nights.
Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (about 8 biscuits, 12 oz)
- 8 regular marshmallows (or mini marshmallows stacked)
- 8 small chocolate pieces (milk, dark, or caramel-filled; about 4 oz total)
- 8 graham cracker squares (or 1/2 cup crushed graham crackers)
- Vegetable oil for deep frying (about 3 cups)
- Powdered sugar for dusting (2–3 tbsp, optional)
- Melted chocolate or chocolate sauce for drizzling (2 oz, optional)
- Extra crushed graham crackers for garnish (2 tbsp, optional)
Instructions
- Break chocolate bars into 8 small squares (about 0.5 oz each). Crush graham crackers into coarse crumbs or leave whole for extra crunch. Set aside with marshmallows.
- Open biscuit dough and separate into 8 pieces. Flatten each piece into a 3-inch circle using your hands or a rolling pin.
- Place one marshmallow, a piece of chocolate, and a spoonful of graham cracker crumbs in the center of each dough circle. Gather the edges and pinch to seal, forming a ball.
- Pour vegetable oil into a deep fryer or heavy-bottomed pot to a depth of at least 2 inches. Heat to 350°F.
- Using a slotted spoon or spider strainer, carefully lower 2–3 bombs into the hot oil. Fry for 2–3 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown.
- Transfer fried bombs to a plate lined with paper towels or a wire rack. Let cool for 2–3 minutes before serving.
- Dust with powdered sugar, drizzle with melted chocolate, and sprinkle extra graham cracker crumbs if desired.
Notes
Seal the dough tightly to prevent leaks. Fry in small batches to keep oil hot and bombs crispy. Let bombs cool slightly before serving to avoid burns from molten marshmallow. You can prep ahead and fry just before serving. For gluten-free or vegan versions, substitute appropriate dough, chocolate, and marshmallows. Air fryer adaptation: brush bombs with oil and air fry at 375°F for 8 minutes, turning halfway.
