Ingredients
Scale
Truffle Ingredients
- 12 large marshmallows
- 1 and 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (or melting wafers)
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil (or vegetable shortening)
- 6 graham cracker sheets, crushed into fine crumbs
Instructions
- Prepare the Setting Surface: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to provide a clean surface for the truffles to set on after coating.
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring thoroughly after each interval until the mixture is completely melted and smooth. The coconut oil helps thin the chocolate for easy dipping and a smooth, non-sticky finish.
- Dip the Marshmallows: Using a fork or skewer, dip each marshmallow into the melted chocolate, making sure it’s fully coated. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off to avoid clumping.
- Coat with Graham Cracker Crumbs: Immediately transfer the chocolate-covered marshmallow into the bowl of crushed graham cracker crumbs. Roll gently until the marshmallow is evenly coated with crumbs.
- Place on Baking Sheet: Transfer the coated marshmallow onto the prepared parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat the dipping and coating process with the remaining marshmallows.
- Chill to Set: Place the baking sheet with the coated marshmallows in the refrigerator for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the chocolate is firm and set to the touch. The chill helps lock in a smooth, non-sticky chocolate shell enhanced by the coconut oil.
- Serve or Store: Enjoy the truffles immediately after setting or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for later indulgence.
Notes
- The coconut oil thins the melted chocolate, making it easier to coat the marshmallows smoothly.
- Chilling the dipped marshmallows is essential to achieve a firm, non-sticky chocolate shell.
- You can substitute vegetable shortening for coconut oil if preferred.
- Make sure the graham cracker crumbs are fine for an even coating and better texture.
- Store truffles in an airtight container to maintain freshness and prevent the chocolate from melting in warm conditions.
