S'more Pie

Emma M. and Aislinn

Required:

pie tin
dutch oven

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/3 cup sugar
6 tablespoons butter
2 cups chocolate chips
2 cups mini marshmallows

Instructions:

Either buy a premade graham cracker crust or make your own:
Melt butter. Mix butter with graham crumbs and sugar. Press into pie tin.

Heat dutch oven to about 350 degrees.

Cover graham crust with layer of chocolate chips.
Cook in D.O. for about 5 minutes to melt chips.
Cover chocolate chips completely with layer of mini-marshmallows.
Cook in D.O. for about 10 minutes.
Check every 5 minutes until marshmallows are brown.

Carefully remove pie tin and set to cool. If you can set it in snow or shallow cold water, it will cool the crust faster.

Serves 8

(All recipes use a 12-inch dutch oven, unless specified. If you have a 10-inch dutch oven, use about 2/3 to 3/4 of the ingredient amounts but keep the temperature and time about the same.
If no temperature is listed, use 350 degrees.)

This recipe turned out to be delicious! It was extremely simple to make and took little time. However my partner and I did face some challenges that we would be sure to do differently if we were to make it again. First of all, the recipe didn’t specify how many coals we should use to bake it, but rather listed a temperature. When we decided that we were going to use 16 coals on top and 5 on the bottom, it seemed to be working well, but it took longer to make than expected. We’d recommend either increasing the amount of coals you use, or adjusting the amount of total bake time to about 20 minutes. Furthermore, as we decided to make the crust from scratch, we discovered after taking the pie out of the dutch oven that although the marshmallows and chocolate we done, the crust was soft instead of hard. Even so the pie was really tasty and we’d recommend it to anyone who loves s’mores!!
