Ingredients
For the S’mores:
- 8 graham cracker sheets
- 8 large marshmallows
- 4 Hershey’s chocolate bars
For the Batter:
- 1 ½ cups pancake mix
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup milk
- 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
Additional:
- Oil for frying
Directions
- Prep the Frying Oil:
- Heat 3 inches of oil in a deep pot over medium heat. You’ll want it to reach a temperature of about 350°F for frying.
- Prepare the Batter:
- In a bowl, combine the pancake mix, egg, milk, and 2 teaspoons of vegetable oil. Stir until most of the lumps are gone, but don’t overmix. Let the batter rest for about 5 minutes.
- Assemble the S’mores:
- Break each graham cracker sheet in half to create squares.
- Take two squares and sandwich a large marshmallow and half a chocolate bar between them. Repeat this process until all s’mores are assembled.
- Batter Dip:
- Using tongs, dip each assembled s’more into the batter. Ensure the entire surface is coated, and shake off any excess.
- Deep-Fry Time:
- Carefully place the battered s’mores into the hot oil. Hold them with tongs until the batter sets, then let them float freely, frying for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown.
- Drain and Cool:
- Remove each s’more from the oil with a slotted spoon and let them drain on paper towels.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Allow the s’mores to cool for about 5-10 minutes before serving. They are best enjoyed warm, when the chocolate is melted and the marshmallow is irresistibly gooey.
