Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (8-count)
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 8 large marshmallows
- 8 squares of milk chocolate (or about 8 chocolate chips per bomb)
- Oil for frying (vegetable or canola oil work well)
- Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)
Instructions : How to Make Fried S’mores Bombs
1. Prepare the Dough
Start by rolling each biscuit dough piece into a flat, round shape. You’ll want each one to be large enough to fully wrap around the marshmallow and chocolate filling.
2. Assemble the Bombs
Place one marshmallow and one square of chocolate in the center of each flattened dough round. Fold the dough over the filling, pressing and pinching the edges to seal tightly – this keeps all the gooey goodness locked inside!
3. Coat in Graham Crumbs
Roll each assembled bomb in graham cracker crumbs until completely coated. This gives them that extra s’mores flavor in every bite.
4. Fry the Bombs
Heat your oil in a deep pan or fryer to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add 2-3 bombs at a time to the hot oil. Fry for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown on all sides. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and let them drain on a paper towel.
5. Serve and Enjoy
Dust with powdered sugar if you’d like an extra touch of sweetness and serve while warm! Each bite is a crispy, gooey delight.
Helpful Tips
- Seal Well: Make sure to pinch the dough tightly around the edges. Any gaps could lead to marshmallow or chocolate leaking out while frying.
- Monitor Oil Temperature: Keeping the oil around 350°F (175°C) will give the bombs a perfect golden-brown exterior without burning. A thermometer is helpful if you have one on hand.
- Serve Fresh: These Fried S’mores Bombs are best served warm, so plan to make them just before enjoying for maximum gooey goodness!
Substitutions & Variations
- Baking Option: Prefer a non-fried version? Bake the assembled bombs on a parchment-lined baking sheet at 375°F (190°C) for about 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Chocolate Choices: Swap the milk chocolate for dark or white chocolate to add a different flavor twist! Peanut butter cups are also a delicious swap if you’re a peanut butter lover.
- Cinnamon Sugar: Add a sprinkle of cinnamon to your graham cracker crumbs for a little warm spice that pairs perfectly with the marshmallow and chocolate.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make these ahead of time?
Fried S’mores Bombs are best enjoyed fresh, as they’re crispiest right after frying. However, you can prepare them ahead, fry when ready, or reheat them in the oven for a few minutes if needed.
How do I prevent them from bursting while frying?
The key is to seal the dough well around the edges and avoid overfilling. Make sure your oil is hot enough (around 350°F) to fry them quickly and evenly.
Can I use homemade dough?
Absolutely! Homemade biscuit or even pizza dough will work well. Just be sure to roll it to the right thickness so it cooks through.
Storage Instructions
If you have leftovers (which is rare!), store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat them in the oven at 350°F for about 5 minutes, or in an air fryer to restore some of that crispy texture.
Enjoy your Fried S’mores Bombs – a sweet, fun twist on a campfire classic!
