Toasted Smores Pie Food

TOASTY S'MORES PIE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and butter; set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk pudding mix and milk 1 to 2 minutes, or until thickened. Fold in whipped topping to combine.
• Set oven to broil. Spoon pudding mixture into pie crust. Sprinkle graham cracker crumb mixture over pudding. Cover completely with marshmallows.
• Place pie under broiler 1 to 2 minutes, or until marshmallows are golden. (Leave the door cracked a bit to watch them; make sure they don't burn!) Remove from oven; let cool 10 minutes before refrigerating 2 hours, or until ready to serve.

TOASTED S'MORES PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Finely grind crackers in a food processor (you should have about 1 1/2 cups). Add butter, sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt; pulse until combined. Firmly press crumb mixture into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake until crust is fragrant and slightly darker, 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool completely.
• Place chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl. Bring cream just to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high. Pour over chocolate; add a pinch of salt. Let stand 10 minutes, then stir until smooth and shiny.
• Preheat broiler with rack 6 inches from heating element. Brush a rimmed baking sheet with butter; arrange marshmallows in a single layer. Broil until well-toasted and puffed, about 1 minute. With a rubber spatula, gently fold marshmallows into chocolate mixture until just incorporated but still streaky. Scrape mixture into piecrust. Refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours and up to 2 days. Before serving, sprinkle with flaky salt.
• Optional garnish: Before serving, broil a mound of marshmallows (about a 4-inch circle) on a buttered rimmed baking sheet until well-toasted and puffed, about 1 minute. Using a buttered metal spatula, transfer marshmallows to pie, toasted-sides up.

SKY HIGH S'MORES PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease the inside of a 9" springform pan.
• Crush the graham crackers until fine. Melt the butter and stir in the crumbs until moistened. Use the back of a measuring cup to firmly press the graham cracker crumbs into place.
• Bake for 10 minutes. Allow 30 to minutes to cool completely.
• Place a few inches of water in the bottom of a pot and bring it to a simmer. Pour the chopped bittersweet chocolate into an oven safe bowl. It should be large enough to fit on top of the pot without touching the water. Melt the chocolate, stirring occasionally.
• While the chocolate melts, place the heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract in the bowl of a stand mixer. Use the whisk attachment to whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks.
• Once the chocolate is done melting, remove it from over the water. In four additions, gently fold in the whipped cream. Pour the chocolate filling into the baked graham cracker crust. Chill in the refrigerator for 4 hours.
• Pour 1/4 cup of water into a small bowl and sprinkle the gelatin on top. Allow to sit.
• Put the additional 2 tablespoons of water, sugar, and corn syrup into a small pot fitted with a candy thermometer. Bring it to boil over a medium heat.
• While the syrup mixture heats, put the egg whites and cream of tartar into the bowl of a stand mixer. Use the whisk attachment and put the mixer on medium speed. Whip the eggs to soft peaks.
• Once the syrup mixture reaches 240°F on the candy thermometer, turn off the heat and gently stir in the gelatin mixture. Once the gelatin is dissolved, turn the mixer on medium and slowly pour the syrup mixture into the mixer in a thin stream.
• Once the syrup is completely incorporated, turn the speed to high and whip for 10 minutes. Add in the vanilla extract and whip for a few minutes more. The topping should be thick, glossy and room temperature.
• Remove the filled graham cracker crust from the fridge and spoon the marshmallow topping over the top. Use the back of the spoon to sculpt the topping into the desired shape. Allow to set for 10 minutes then use a kitchen torch to toast the marshmallow topping.
• Cut into to 16 pieces and serve.

CINNAMON S'MORES TOAST

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler and set a rack close to the broiler.
• Combine the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
• Put the bread on a sheet pan and toast the bread lightly on both sides under the broiler. When the bread is hot, spread each piece with 1 teaspoon butter. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar equally among the slices of toast. Top with equal quantities of the chocolate chips. Finally, lay 1/4 cup of the mini marshmallows on each slice.
• Place under the broiler and broil just until the marshmallows are golden brown, watching them so they don't burn, about 1 minute. Serve immediately.

4-INGREDIENT S'MORES PIE

Steps:

• Combine the chocolate chips and cream in a large microwave-safe bowl and heat for 2 1/2 minutes. Stir until completely smooth (the chocolate may appear separated at first, but just keep stirring). Pour into the prepared pie crust, loosely cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until set, about 4 hours or up to overnight.
• Preheat the broiler.
• Use kitchen shears to cut each marshmallow in half, on a bias, from one corner to the opposite corner. Arrange the marshmallow halves, cut-side down, on top of the chilled pie. Broil until golden, watching closely and rotating the pan as needed, about 1 minute. Let the pie cool completely, then cover loosely with plastic wrap and return to the fridge until the ganache sets again, 1 to 2 hours.
