Ingredients
Scale
Graham Cracker Sandwiches
- 12 graham crackers, halved
- 1/2 cup marshmallow crème
- 6 popsicle sticks
Chocolate Coating
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 3 Tbsp. coconut oil
Decorations
- 1 bag candy eyes
- 1 container black cookie frosting
Instructions
- Prepare the Graham Cracker Sandwiches: Spread about 1 tablespoon of marshmallow crème on half of the graham cracker halves. Place a popsicle stick halfway onto the marshmallow crème so it protrudes from the graham cracker like a handle. Top with the remaining graham cracker halves to make sandwiches. Arrange them on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze while you prepare the chocolate sauce.
- Melt the Chocolate: In a medium heatproof bowl, microwave the semisweet chocolate chips and coconut oil in 20-second increments, stirring between each session until melted and smooth, about 1 minute total.
- Coat the Sandwiches: Dip each graham cracker sandwich thoroughly into the melted chocolate, using a butter knife or silicone spatula to ensure the sides are fully coated. Place candy eyes on the far right side about halfway down each chocolate-covered graham cracker “book.” Lay the coated s’mores pops back on the baking sheet and refrigerate until the chocolate hardens, approximately 15 minutes.
- Decorate: Use black cookie frosting to draw a circle around each candy eye, add two semicircles on the outer corners of each graham cracker “book”, and create “stitches” on the chocolate coating to enhance the spooky look.
- Set the Decorations: Refrigerate the s’mores pops for at least 15 minutes more to allow the frosting to set before serving.
Notes
- Freezing the graham cracker sandwiches before dipping helps them hold together and prevents melting.
- Use parchment paper to avoid sticking while the chocolate sets.
- Adjust the number of candy eyes and frosting decorations to customize your spooky design.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator to keep the chocolate firm and fresh.
