This gooey chocolate delight comes together quickly with layers of dark and white chocolate hugging a soft marshmallow center and coated in a buttery graham crunch. It is my go to when I need a treat that feels fancy but takes almost no time at all. These double dipped bites bring s’mores magic indoors year round.

I first whipped up a batch on a whim before a weekend bonfire and now they have become a standing request for every family get together

  • Dark chocolate: delivers that deep cocoa punch and contrasts the sweet marshmallow
  • White chocolate: adds visual flair and a second creamy layer

  • Coconut oil optional: makes the melted chocolate smoother and easier to dip
  • Tip: For best results use high quality chocolate and fresh graham crumbs for crunch
