No Bake S’mores Pie
Enjoy your favorite campfire flavors from the comfort of your kitchen with a No Bake S’mores Pie. Featuring a graham cracker crust, milk chocolate filling and homemade marshmallow topping, this pie puts a fun twist on the classic bonfire treat.
It’s better to cross the line and suffer the consequences than to just stare at that line the rest of your life. This is what I tell myself every time there’s a slice of S’mores Pie in front of me. Never mind that I made the pie then deliberately positioned it in view of my adoring eyeballs or that I’m currently devouring a piece the size of the Bermuda Triangle. I want a second helping so I’m having a second helping. Sure, it’s crossing the caloric line, but at this point I’m so far past that line I don’t even see it.
Then again, I probably can’t see it because my expanding waistline is blocking the view.
In my defense, it’s difficult stopping after a single slice of pie when it’s layered with a trifecta of campfire flavors: buttery graham cracker crust, milk chocolate filling and a toasty marshmallow meringue. Basically, it’s all the gooey goodness of the world’s favorite bonfire snack without the wind blowing smoke in your face.
Or a stick leaving splinters in your burnt marshmallow.
The best part is that you don’t need to wait for camping season to satisfy your s’mores craving. Just swap your matches for a blowtorch and make this tasty twist on s’mores from the comfort of your kitchen. All that’s left is to dig in with a fork and let the unmistakable taste transport you to the great outdoors. Plus, there’s no risk of staring a forest fire which means this recipe is Smokey the Bear approved.
Before sharing the recipe for S’mores Pie, here are a few tips to help you out:
Ingredient Tips
This recipe uses a combination of milk chocolate and semisweet chocolate for the filling. Choose chocolate bars over chocolate chips since chips have a higher wax content and aren’t made to melt.
Eggs must be at room temperature before making marshmallow meringue. If you’ve forgotten to remove yours from the refrigerator beforehand, place eggs in warm water to speed the process. Don’t use hot water; we want to warm the eggs, not hatch them.
Preparation Tips
Above all, your mixing bowl and beaters must be spotlessly clean before making meringue. Dirt and grease will ruin meringue, as will bits of yolk (or eggshell) so carefully separate the whites from yolks.
Toast meringue your oven broiler or a kitchen blowtorch. To broil, position your rack to the middle of the oven and set the broiler to the “HI” setting then toast meringue until golden brown. Be vigilant while broiling or marshmallow meringue may burn.
Serving Tips for Chocolate S’mores Pie
