Oh my goodness, let me share my absolute favorite little bites of heaven - S'mores Marshmallow Crunch Truffles! These beauties combine everything we love about s'mores into the most perfect little chocolate treats. Think creamy layers of dark and white chocolate hugging pillowy marshmallows, all rolled in crunchy graham crumbs. Every time I make these, they disappear faster than I can say "s'mores"!
Pure Chocolate Magic
This is what happens when s'mores dress up for a party! You get all those cozy campfire flavors but in an elegant little package. No fire pit needed - just your love for chocolate and about 30 minutes of your time. Trust me, once you try these, they'll become your go-to sweet treat.
Let's Get Our Ingredients
Here's your shopping list for these little gems:
- Grab a bag of mini marshmallows (the tiny ones are perfect!)
- Good quality dark chocolate (trust me, it matters)
- Creamy white chocolate
- Graham crackers to crush up (or ready-made crumbs)
- A touch of coconut oil to make our chocolate super smooth
Making the Magic Happen
Let me walk you through this easy process:
- First, we'll line our baking sheet - nothing worse than stuck truffles!
- Then comes the fun part - dipping those marshmallows in dark chocolate.
- After a quick chill, we'll give them a white chocolate coat.
- Roll them in graham crumbs for that signature crunch.
- One final chill and voila - truffle perfection!
My Best Tips
After making these countless times, here's what I've learned:
- Patience is key with the chocolate layers - let each one set completely.
- Good chocolate makes good truffles, so don't skimp here.
- A little peppermint extract makes them taste like winter nights.
- Edible glitter turns them into party stars!

Perfect for Everything
These little treats work magic at any gathering. They're fancy enough for dinner parties but fun enough for movie nights. I love watching people's faces light up when they bite into one - that moment of pure chocolate joy is priceless!
Keeping Them Fresh
If you somehow end up with leftovers (which rarely happens in my house!), pop them in an airtight container in the fridge. They'll stay perfect for a week, or freeze them for those emergency chocolate cravings. Just let them come to room temperature before serving.
Mix It Up
Get creative with your truffles:
- Try different extracts for fun flavor twists.
- Roll them in crushed nuts instead of graham crumbs.
- Use flavored marshmallows for extra pizzazz.
- Hide a little graham cracker in the middle for surprise crunch.
Serving Ideas
These beauties shine in so many ways:
- Arrange them on a pretty platter with fresh berries.
- Dust them with a little powdered sugar for extra elegance.
- Serve them alongside hot cocoa for the ultimate treat.
- Package them up for the sweetest homemade gift.
Quick Answers
Yes, make them ahead! They're perfect for planning. Use any chocolate you love. Swap the graham crackers for gluten-free cookies if needed. They freeze beautifully for whenever chocolate cravings strike.
