Ingredients
- 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup Crushed peppermint candies or candy canes
- 24 pieces Large marshmallows
- 12 sheets Graham crackers
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
Directions
Step 1
Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Set aside.
Step 2
Break each graham cracker sheet in half to create 24 squares. Lay 12 squares flat on the prepared baking sheet and reserve the remaining 12 for the tops.
Step 3
In a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water (or in the microwave in 30-second increments), melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips until smooth. Stir in the butter, vanilla extract, and the salt until fully incorporated. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
Step 4
Place the large marshmallows on top of each of the 12 graham cracker squares on the baking sheet. Using a kitchen torch or broiler, toast the marshmallows until golden and slightly puffed. Watch carefully to prevent burning!
Step 5
Immediately sandwich each marshmallow with a second graham cracker square, gently pressing down to secure them together. Allow them to set for a few minutes.
Step 6
Dip each marshmallow sandwich halfway into the melted chocolate mixture, letting excess chocolate drip off. Place the dipped sandwiches back onto the baking sheet.
Step 7
Sprinkle the crushed peppermint candies or candy canes over the chocolate-coated part of each sandwich while the chocolate is still wet.
Step 8
Allow the sandwiches to cool and set completely. You can refrigerate them for 10-15 minutes to speed up the process.
Step 9
Serve and enjoy your Chocolate Peppermint Marshmallow Sandwiches! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
