How to Make S’mores Marshmallow Pops

Prep Your Workspace: Line a plate or baking sheet with parchment paper. This will help your pops from sticking and make for easy cleanup.
Insert Lollipop Sticks: Push one lollipop stick into the center of each marshmallow, being careful not to puncture through the other side.
Melt the Chocolate: Break the Hershey’s chocolate bars into small pieces and place them in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave the chocolate in 15-second intervals, stirring well each time until it’s melted and smooth.
Prepare the Graham Cracker Coating: Pour the graham cracker crumbs into a small bowl—this will be where the magic happens.
Coat the Marshmallows: Dip one marshmallow into the melted chocolate, ensuring all sides are coated. Let the excess chocolate drip off for a moment.
Roll in the Crumbs: Immediately roll the chocolate-coated marshmallow in the graham cracker crumbs until well coated.
Set On Parchment: Place the finished marshmallow pop onto the parchment-lined plate or baking sheet.
Repeat the Process: Continue with the remaining marshmallows until all are coated and ready.
Chill Until Firm: Refrigerate your pops for about 5 to 10 minutes, or until the chocolate is set. Once firm, you can take them out and admire your handiwork!

Storing & Reheating

These S’mores Marshmallow Pops are best enjoyed fresh. You can keep them at room temperature for up to 2 days in an airtight container. If you’d like to store them longer, place them in the fridge for up to a week. For freezing, they can last up to three months in a freezer-safe container. When you’re ready to enjoy them, simply let them thaw at room temperature for a few minutes. However, note that the chocolate coating may be a little less glossy after freezing.

Chef’s Helpful Tips

Make sure to melt your chocolate slowly; overheating can cause it to seize up, so stick to those 15-second intervals.
If you want to add some flair, try drizzling white chocolate over the finished pops for a more decorative appearance.
For a fun twist, consider adding mini chocolate chips to the graham cracker crumbs for an extra chocolatey crunch!
If you’re having trouble with the chocolate sticking, try refrigerating the marshmallows before dipping.
You can use various flavored chocolates, such as dark chocolate or even butterscotch, to elevate the flavor!
