Servings and timing
This recipe makes 8 to 10 fried s’mores bites and takes about 20 minutes total — 10 minutes to prep and 10 minutes to fry.
Variations
Sometimes I use Nutella or cookie butter instead of chocolate for a different flavor. I’ve also added a dash of cinnamon to the graham crumbs or topped the finished bites with a drizzle of caramel. For a frozen twist, I freeze the filled dough for 10 minutes before frying — this helps control the melt for a more molten center.
storage/reheating
These are best eaten fresh, but if I have leftovers, I refrigerate them for up to 1 day. To reheat, I bake them in the oven at 350°F for a few minutes or use an air fryer to crisp them back up. I avoid the microwave since it can make them soggy.
FAQs
Can I bake these instead of frying?
Yes — I bake them at 375°F for about 10–12 minutes until golden brown, though they won’t be quite as crispy as fried.
What’s the best dough to use?
I usually go with crescent roll dough for its buttery flavor, but wonton wrappers give a crispier, lighter shell.
How do I keep them from bursting open?
I seal the edges tightly and don’t overfill. Pinching or brushing a little water on the seams helps them stay closed while frying.
Can I make them ahead of time?
I’ve assembled them ahead and refrigerated them until ready to fry. They hold up well for a few hours.
Do I need a deep fryer?
No — I use a shallow skillet with enough oil to submerge the bites halfway, flipping once to cook both sides.
Conclusion
Crispy Chocolate Marshmallow S’mores Bites are my go-to when I want a fast, fun dessert with all the nostalgic flavors of traditional s’mores. They’re golden, gooey, and perfect for sharing — or keeping all to myself. Whether fried for a party or baked for a cozy night in, these treats always deliver that perfect melt-in-your-mouth moment.
