Early on in the year Shelly knew she wanted to make a S’mores Pie, but she felt she needed to wait until the summer to do it. She looked at several different recipes with several different approaches. Some had a chocolate pudding base, others had a richer ganache. Some used real marshmallows, others used marshmallow fluff. Some of them didn’t even use a graham cracker crust. She finally found a recipe that was almost perfect. But it used biscoff cookies for the crust. The horror! So we switched out the crust of this recipe with a graham cracker crust and it was perfect.
It had all the components of a fabulous s’more: graham cracker crust, salted chocolate ganache filling, and homemade marshmallow fluff. We even borrowed a kitchen torch from a friend to make it toasty on top.
If making this recipe again, we would use a little bit less salt in the filling, and cut the marshmallow fluff in half.
We we had to have two pies this day because we had two families over for dinner and we were going to be in Utah on Shelly’s actual week. But the s’mores pie was a huge hit.
