Baked S’mores Donuts

Baked S’mores Donuts – just when you think this fireside treat couldn’t get any better, it does in this gooey, yummy, chocolate-coated delight. Imagine the perfect blend of a fluffy donut, melted chocolate, toasted marshmallows, and a hint of graham cracker crunch.

Each bite brings back memories of cozy campfire nights, making it a nostalgic treat.

 My hubby and I have weekly date nights. We have been doing this since the beginning of our marriage after getting some wedding advice. These date nights have seriously been a saving grace. I love the one-on-one time with him and the chance to eat dinner alone with no kids, have dishes to do, and have to think of something to make.

Did I mention how much I love these date nights? We are creatures of habit and typically hit the same spots every week.

So, I made it a personal goal not to duplicate a restaurant for the next few months. On our first date night, not at our usual place, we headed to the Farm House, a new local place right up the street from us.

They had a fantastic dessert menu, and it was tough to decide what time to select. My hubby, who hates donuts, voted for the S’mores Donuts, which shocked me.

These Baked S’mores Donuts feature a graham cracker base, a gooey marshmallow center, and a chocolate dip, all dusted with graham cracker crumbs. They surpass traditional s’mores in flavor, though fresh donuts aren’t feasible to whip up by the campfire. Instead, enjoy making these at home for a delightful evening treat.

Alternatively, bake them in advance and bring them along on your camping trip to elevate your fireside snack.

Ingredients

 

• ▢ 1/2 cup milk
• ▢ 1 1/2 teaspoons vinegar
• ▢ 3 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
• ▢ 1 1/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
• ▢ 1 1/2 tablespoons instant vanilla pudding
• ▢ 1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
• ▢ 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• ▢ 1/4 teaspoon salt
• ▢ 2 tablespoons white granulated sugar
• ▢ 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• ▢ 2 tablespoons honey
• ▢ 1 large egg
• ▢ 2 teaspoons vanilla

Glaze

• ▢ 1 cup Ghirardelli Dark Chocolate Melting Chips
• ▢ 2 tablespoons graham cracker crumbs
• ▢ 24 regular sized marshmallows

Instructions

 

Donuts

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease 2 donut pans using cooking spray. Recipe makes 8 donuts.
• In a small cup, mix together milk and vinegar, allow this to sit until it starts to curdle about 5 minutes.
• Melt butter in a small bowl and set aside to cool.
• In a medium mixing bowl add together flours, instant pudding, graham cracker crumbs, white sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
• Whisk the honey into the curdle milk and beat until well combined, then add the egg. Whisk until combined.
• Mix together the wet with the dry ingredients until combined, make sure you don’t over mix, you want a fluffy donut not a dense one.
• If you don’t have a piping bag, cut the corner of a Ziplock bag, add batter and pipe the dough evenly into the prepared pans, about 2/3 full.
• Bake for 7 minutes, remove from oven and cool for 1 minute before you turn them over on to a cooling rack. Let the donuts cool on rack.

Assembly

• Once donuts have cooled, melt chocolate according to package directions.
• Dip the top half of the donut into the chocolate, let excess chocolate drip off, and immediately sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs, set back onto cooling rack. Repeat with remaining donuts and chocolate.
• Cut all of the marshmallows in half, I did this using a pair of scissors.
• Once the chocolate on the donuts has hardened cut donut in half.
• Set the top halves aside or back on the cooling rack.
• Set the bottom halves on a baking rack with center side facing up. Place 4 marshmallow halves on top of the bottom halves of the donut. Repeat with remaining donuts and marshmallows.
• Set oven on low broil and broil until marshmallows start to toast and turn a golden brown. Once they do immediately remove from oven and quickly place the top halves on top of the marshmallows.
• Just like a S’more!
• Set on cooling rack and serve and enjoy!
