## How to Make Fried S’mores Bombs: A Step-by-Step Guide
Now that we have all the ingredients ready, let’s walk through the process of making Fried S’mores Bombs. This recipe may take a little time, but the end result is so worth it. With crispy graham cracker crust, gooey marshmallow filling, and melt-in-your-mouth chocolate, these little bombs are an indulgence that you’ll want to make again and again.
### Step 1: Prepare the S’mores Filling
Start by breaking the chocolate bars into small pieces. You’ll want enough chocolate to fill the center of each marshmallow, so make sure you have enough pieces for each s’mores bomb. Set the chocolate aside.
Next, grab your mini marshmallows. If you’d like, you can cut some of them in half to help distribute the filling more evenly inside the bombs. Set the marshmallows aside as well.
### Step 2: Form the Bombs
To form the bombs, start by laying out a piece of wax paper or parchment paper on a flat surface. This will help prevent the bombs from sticking as you work with them.
1. Take a mini marshmallow and press a small piece of chocolate inside. You want to make sure the chocolate is tucked into the marshmallow, so it doesn’t fall out while frying.
2. Roll the marshmallow and chocolate in a small piece of graham cracker crumb. Gently press the graham cracker crumbs to form a secure coating around the marshmallow-chocolate filling.
3. Continue this process for the remaining marshmallows, making sure to work quickly so the marshmallows don’t soften too much.
### Step 3: Dip and Coat the Bombs
Now it’s time to coat the s’mores bombs in a crispy, golden batter. In one bowl, combine the flour and a pinch of salt. In another bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together until smooth. In a third bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and cinnamon sugar.
1. Dip each prepared s’mores bomb into the flour mixture, making sure it’s coated evenly.
2. Next, dip it into the egg mixture, ensuring the entire bomb is coated.
3. Finally, roll the bomb in the graham cracker crumbs to coat it with a crunchy, sweet layer.
### Step 4: Fry the S’mores Bombs
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. You want the oil to reach around 350°F (175°C) for the best frying results. Carefully drop each s’mores bomb into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pot.
Fry the bombs for 2-3 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside. Use a slotted spoon to remove the bombs from the oil and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
### Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Once the Fried S’mores Bombs are cooked and have drained, dust them with powdered sugar for a final touch of sweetness. Serve them warm and enjoy the satisfying crunch and gooey, melty filling that will have everyone coming back for more.
## Tips for Perfect Fried S’mores Bombs
– **Use High-Quality Chocolate**: The chocolate is one of the star ingredients, so don’t skimp on it. Use your favorite brand of milk chocolate or even dark chocolate if you prefer a slightly less sweet treat.
– **Work Quickly with Marshmallows**: Marshmallows are soft and can melt if left out for too long.
Make sure to work quickly when forming the bombs and keep them in the fridge until ready to fry.
– **Temperature Control**: To avoid oily, greasy bombs, make sure the oil is at the right temperature. If the oil is too hot, the coating will burn before the marshmallow has time to melt. If it’s not hot enough, the bombs may absorb too much oil.
– **Make Them Ahead**: You can prepare the s’mores bombs ahead of time by assembling them and refrigerating them for up to a day before frying. Just make sure to bring them to room temperature before frying to ensure even cooking.
## Creative Variations of Fried S’mores Bombs
While the classic Fried S’mores Bombs are delicious on their own, there’s no reason you can’t get creative with your fillings and toppings. Here are a few ideas to inspire you:
– **Peanut Butter**: Add a spoonful of creamy peanut butter to the chocolate filling for an extra layer of flavor that complements the sweet marshmallow and graham cracker.
– **Caramel**: Drizzle caramel sauce over the fried bombs before serving for a decadent twist on the classic.
– **Nutella**: Swap out the milk chocolate for Nutella for a creamy, hazelnut-flavored version of the Fried S’mores Bombs.
– **Candy Coating**: Dip the fried bombs in melted white chocolate or dark chocolate and sprinkle with colorful sprinkles for a festive and fun variation.
