S’mores Pudding

Smores Pudding recipe pictures

Isn’t it funny how you go through phases with what you cook? First, I found myself making caramel everything. Then, it was cake batter flavored everything. Now, my obsession is s’mores.  In just one weekend I made s’mores pancakes, I made homemade marshmallows and homemade graham crackers to take to a campfire party, then the next day I made these s’mores pudding parfaits with some left over marshmallows and graham crackers. It didn’t end there though. The rest of the leftover marshmallows I dipped in melted chocolate, and then the  leftover graham cracker crumbs.  Can you tell I love s’mores?

I made one mistake while making these s’mores pudding parfaits. I should have trusted my instincts. When I was reading the ingredients I was unsure if I should follow the directions and use bittersweet chocolate or go with my instincts and use semisweet chocolate. I should have gone with the semisweet chocolate. Now, if you like bittersweet chocolate then it is fine, but I don’t! I should know that by now! You live and you learn I guess. Next time I make this I will be using semisweet chocolate. Other than that the parfaits were really good. We simplified it by using marshmallows instead of “marshmallow topping.” If you want the feeling of eating s’mores by the campfire, but would rather stay in the air conditioning then this is the perfect dessert for you!
