How to Make Fried S’mores Bombs
Quick Overview
Making Fried S’mores Bombs is surprisingly easy and incredibly satisfying. Your taste buds will thank you as you bite into that crisp shell, meeting the warm symphony of chocolate and marshmallow inside. It takes just 20 minutes of preparation and 5 minutes of cooking to create this darling treat that is both fun and delicious.
Before diving into the recipe, here’s what you’ll need:
Ingredients
- Key Ingredients:
- 1 cup of mini marshmallows
- 4 bars of chocolate (preferably milk chocolate or semi-sweet)
- 1 cup of graham cracker crumbs
- 10 spring roll wrappers (or substitute with dough)
- Oil (for frying)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: Start by breaking the chocolate bars into small pieces. In a mixing bowl, combine chocolate pieces with a handful of mini marshmallows. Remember, you want that gooey, melty goodness inside!
- Fill the Wrappers: Lay the spring roll wrapper on a clean surface, and place a tablespoon of the chocolate-marshmallow filling in the center. Fold the wrapper over to create a pocket. Seal the edges tightly with a bit of water to avoid any spills during frying.
- Heat the Oil: In a deep frying pan, heat about two inches of oil over medium heat. You’ll know it’s ready when a small drop of water sizzles on contact with the oil.
- Fry the Bombs: Carefully drop your prepared bombs into the hot oil. Fry them in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook for about 3-5 minutes or until golden brown.
- Cool and Dust: Once they reach that perfect golden color, remove them and place them on a paper towel to drain excess oil. Dust with powdered sugar while still warm.
And voila! Your Fried S’mores Bombs are ready to be devoured!
Top Tips for Perfecting Fried S’mores Bombs
- Substitutions: You can use different types of chocolate or even Nutella to mix things up a bit!
- Timing: Make sure the oil is hot enough before adding the bombs; otherwise, they’ll soak up too much oil and become greasy.
- Common Mistakes: Be careful not to overfill the wrappers, as it can cause them to burst while frying. Seal them properly by pressing the edges firmly—this will help keep all that delightful filling inside.
Storing and Reheating Tips
If you happen to have leftovers (which is unlikely because they’re so delicious!), you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For longer storage, consider freezing them. Just remember to double-wrap them to prevent freezer burn.
To reheat, the best method is to place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes to restore their crispness. Enjoy these treats as fresh as when you first made them!
Now that you know all about Fried S’mores Bombs, why not take the plunge and surprise your family with this delightful recipe? Get ready for a tasty adventure in your kitchen! Happy cooking!
