The Story:
Last week I made S’mores Puppy Chow, but on the same day I made that I wanted really badly to make those S’mores treats with the melted marshmallow (like rice crispy treats without rice crisps…). But I couldn’t bring myself to make a treat that everyone has done before. I needed a different take on it, or else why would any of you come to my little ‘ole blog, right? So I started googling and then I just totally went to town. Or I guess I went to the kitchen…
I’m calling this “fudge” though I’m sure there’s some definition for fudge that I didn’t quite fulfill but it’s great because my problem with s’mores is that there is too much marshmallow and not enough chocolate. This combo is perfect. The chocolate is soft, the marshmallows aren’t sticking all over your face and the golden grahams are way better than graham crackers. You can even cut this up in smaller pieces and serve them in mini cupcake liners!
S’mores Fudge
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 C. chocolate chips or melts
- 3/4 C. peanut butter creamy
- 1 Tbsp. butter
- 1 1/3 C. cocoa rice krispies
- 1 1/3 C. marshmallows
- 1 1/2-2 C. Golden Grahams
Instructions
-
1. Line a 9X9 or an 8X8 inch pan with foil (let it hang over the sides so you can easily pull up on the flaps to bring out your finished treats) and butter the foil.
-
2. In a large bowl, melt chocolate, peanut butter and butter together in the microwave. Microwave for 45 seconds, then remove and stir. Continue to microwave in 10 second increments until smooth.
-
3. Take a 1/4 C. measuring cup and use it to remove that much meted chocolate. Set aside.
-
4. Add in cocoa rice krispies and marshmallows to your large bowl of melted chocolate and stir until combined.
-
5. Dump into prepared pan and spread out evenly.
-
6. The fudge will look lumpy, so help "smooth" it out and give it an even top, pour your extra 1/4 cup of melted chocolate over the layer. This will help to fill in around the marshmallows sticking up.
-
7. Sprinkle over enough Golden Grahams to cover the top and gently press them down so they get stuck in the chocolate.
-
8. Place in freezer for 1 few minutes to set. Cut with a warm knife and serve!
These look really good Lizzy! I agree with you wanting more chocolate than marshmallow. Your version looks just right.
Sounds good to me- chocolate & marshmallow anything is good in my book.
This looks SO good. I love smokes, but I think I would love this even more!
These look so much better with Golden Grahams on top and I bet they taste so good! 🙂
Hi Lizzy, do you have a seriously decadent chocolate cupcake receipe you would like to share? I have joined your site and just love it!
My go-to chocolate cupcake is “My Favorite Chocolate Cupcake” recipe. Just flip through the cupcake recipe pages to find it or search for it off on the right hand side in the search bar!
Dear Lizzy,
I made the “My Favorite Chocolate Cupcake” receipe for a backyard cookout and everyone loved it! The hint of cinnamon, with the ganache and exceptionally decadent chocolate frosting was amazing!! My husband’s absolute favorite is dark chocolate. Is there anything I can add to the dough receipe to make the cake portion a deeper chocolate flavor?
You can add a few ounces of melted baking chocolate!
S’mores Fudge was fun to make & my hubby enjoyed them!
As a 50 year Insulin dependent diabetic whose favorite thing is to bake
for fun, I just love your blog & recipes & cookbook!! TY
Aw thanks so much! Glad you and your man enjoyed it!
My question is do you have to use peanut butter? We are a house of nut allergies but also happen to be s’more lovers and would love to know if I could just remove the peanut butter if it would still turn out right?
Thanks!
I know how the nut allergies can go, my brother is terribly allergic. The peanut butter is there to keep the chocolate from getting too hard. So add some butter instead! A few tablespoons should do the trick, not a full 3/4 cup but just under a half cup should be fine. I hope that helps!
I also love eating traditional s’mores due to the perfect balance of chocolate and marshmallows. They highlight the soft texture of the chocolate and the fact that the marshmallows aren’t too sticky, making for a more enjoyable eating experience.
The fancy alligator strap and modern goedkope omega horloge steel folding clasp do feel a bit too luxe and contemporary on the Carrera 160 Years Silver Limited Edition. At its launch in 1963 the 2447 cost less than 100. If there is a disconnect between the strap and watch it’s surely an easy fix though. How cool would it be to put this guy on something with a bit more of a vintage vibe like say the racing strap seen on the above 2447SD toward the top of this article
