Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 cups chocolate pudding (prepared or instant mix)
  • 8 graham crackers, crushed or broken into small pieces
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows or regular marshmallows cut into smaller pieces

Instructions

  1. Prepare the pudding: If using instant pudding mix, follow package instructions to prepare 2 cups of chocolate pudding. Allow it to set if required.
  2. Layer the parfait: In serving glasses or jars, start by adding a layer of chocolate pudding at the bottom. Follow with a layer of crushed graham crackers and then a layer of marshmallows. Repeat the layers until the glasses are filled, finishing with marshmallows on top.
  3. Chill before serving: Place the assembled parfaits in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the layers to meld and the graham crackers to soften slightly.
  4. Serve: Serve chilled for a cool, creamy dessert experience that captures the classic s’mores flavor.

Notes

  • For a toasted marshmallow effect, briefly broil the assembled parfaits in the oven or use a kitchen torch before chilling, but this step is optional.
  • You can substitute the chocolate pudding with homemade chocolate mousse or pudding if preferred.
  • Use gluten-free graham crackers to make this dessert gluten-free.
  • Adjust the sweetness by adding less marshmallows or using sugar-free pudding mix for a lower sugar version.
