Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 10 full-size graham crackers
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
Binding Ingredients:
- 1 cup (2 sticks / 226 grams) salted butter
- 1 cup (220 grams) packed light brown sugar
Instructions
- Arrange a single layer of graham crackers on a parchment-lined baking sheet, carefully fitting them to cover the entire surface.
- Craft a rich caramel sauce by melting butter in a saucepan, then incorporate brown sugar and simmer until the mixture transforms into a smooth, glossy liquid.
- Generously drench the graham cracker base with the molten caramel, ensuring complete and even coverage using a flexible spatula.
- Transfer the caramel-coated crackers to a preheated 350F (175C) oven, allowing the toffee to bubble and develop a golden hue for 5-7 minutes.
- Immediately scatter chocolate chips across the hot toffee surface, returning the pan to the oven briefly to encourage complete chocolate melting.
- Distribute mini marshmallows over the now-melted chocolate layer, returning to the oven to achieve a delicate golden-brown toast on the marshmallows.
- Allow the dessert to cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes to solidify the layers.
- Once thoroughly chilled, fragment the creation into rustic, bite-sized pieces ready for indulgence.
Notes
- Adjust graham cracker base by using gluten-free crackers for a celiac-friendly version, ensuring everyone can enjoy this sweet treat.
- Control caramel’s consistency by stirring constantly and watching the temperature to prevent burning, which can create a bitter taste.
- Experiment with chocolate varieties like dark, milk, or white chocolate to customize flavor profiles and match personal preferences.
- Use a silicone baking mat instead of parchment paper for easier cleanup and more even heat distribution during the baking process.
