S’mores Pudding Cups

Course Dessert
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 7 minutes
CHILL TIME 2 hours
Servings 4

Ingredients

*For the pudding:*

  • 3 cups whole milk
  • ¾ cup cocoa powder
  • ¼ cup + 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 1 ½ tsp vanilla extract

*For the graham cracker crumble:*

  • 1 cup crushed graham crackers
  • 6 tbsp melted salted butter
  • 3 tbsp granulated sugar

*Topping:*

  • 7 oz marshmallow fluff

Instructions

*For the pudding:*

  • In a bowl, whisk together egg yolks and set aside.
  • In a pot, pour in the milk. In a separate bowl, mix cocoa powder, cornstarch, sugar, and salt. Add this mixture to the milk and heat over medium-high heat until it boils, stirring continuously for 3-5 minutes until it thickens.
  • Take ¼ cup of the mixture and add it to the egg yolks, whisking to temper them. Combine the egg yolk mixture with the pudding and cook for an extra 1-2 minutes until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • Remove from heat, stir in vanilla, and strain the pudding into a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap pressed directly onto the pudding to avoid forming a skin. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before assembly.

*For the graham cracker crumble:*

  • Crush graham crackers in a food processor. While processing, add sugar and melted butter. Blend until it resembles wet sand, about 30 seconds.

*For assembly:*

  • Once the pudding has set, assemble the dessert in 4 8oz jars or cups. Start with approximately 2 tablespoons of the graham cracker crumble, pressing it down into an even layer.
  • Next, add about ½ cup of the chilled pudding on top of the crumble.
  • Finish by generously topping each jar with marshmallow fluff.
  • Toast the marshmallow fluff on top using a kitchen torch for that perfect s’mores touch.
  • Serve and enjoy this delightful, no-fuss treat that captures the essence of a gooey campfire s’more!
