Ingredients
- 4 slices of bread (white or brioche works best)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 4 slices of milk or dark chocolate (or ½ cup chocolate chips)
- ½ cup mini marshmallows or marshmallow fluff
- 4 graham crackers, crushed into small pieces
- Optional: 1 teaspoon cinnamon sugar for sprinkling
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Bread
- Butter one side of each slice of bread.
- Place the bread butter-side down on a plate or cutting board.
Step 2: Assemble the Sandwich
- On the unbuttered side of two bread slices, layer the chocolate slices or chocolate chips evenly.
- Add a layer of mini marshmallows or spread marshmallow fluff over the chocolate.
- Sprinkle crushed graham crackers on top for that signature crunch.
- Place the remaining slices of bread on top, buttered side facing up.
Step 3: Cook the Sandwich
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula.
- Flip carefully and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the bread is golden brown and the filling is melted and gooey.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy
- Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them cool slightly before slicing in half.
- Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar for an extra sweet touch, if desired.
Notes
- Use Brioche or Challah Bread: These breads add a rich, sweet flavor that complements the s’mores filling.
- Don’t Overfill: Too much filling can make it messy to flip; a balanced layer works best.
- Cook on Low Heat: This allows the chocolate and marshmallows to melt fully without burning the bread.
