Description
A fudgy, chocolatey dessert that combines the classic flavors of s’mores with a gooey filling and a light meringue topping.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup Milk (lukewarm)
- 1/4 cup Water (lukewarm)
- 2 1/4 tsp Instant Yeast (1 packet)
- 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar
- 3 3/4 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 4 tbsp Unsalted Butter (divided)
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1/8 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- 1/8 cup Heavy Whipping Cream
- 1/3 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
- 1/4 cup Graham Cracker Crumbs
- 2 large Egg Whites (room temperature)
- 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1/8 tsp Cream of Tartar
- 1/8 tsp Salt
- 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract (divided)
Instructions
- Combine lukewarm milk and water in a bowl, then sprinkle the instant yeast over the surface. Allow to bloom for 5-10 minutes until frothy. Mix in sugar, 1 melted tablespoon of butter, flour, cocoa powder, and salt until a soft dough forms. Knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth.
- In a small saucepan, melt the remaining butter over low heat and stir in the heavy whipping cream. Remove from heat and fold in the chocolate chips and graham cracker crumbs until evenly coated.
- Roll out the dough into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Spread the chocolate filling evenly, roll tightly, slice into 12 pieces, and place cut side up on a greased baking tray.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Cover rolls with a kitchen towel and rise for 30-40 minutes until doubled. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
- For the meringue, whisk egg whites, sugar, cream of tartar, salt, and 1/4 tsp of vanilla extract over simmering water until glossy peaks form. Spread over rolls and toast lightly with a kitchen torch or under the broiler.
- Let rolls cool slightly before serving.
