Ingredients
- 2 cups (200g) graham cracker crumbs (about 14 full sheets)
- 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
- 8 tablespoons (1 stick, 115g) unsalted butter, melted
- Pinch of salt
- 6 ounces (170g) semisweet chocolate, chopped
- 1 1/2 cups (360ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
- 1/4 cup (30g) powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups (100g) mini marshmallows
- Optional: 1 tablespoon (15ml) milk or cream (for extra gooeyness)
- Optional garnishes: chocolate shavings, extra graham cracker crumbs, drizzle of chocolate sauce
Instructions
- Prepare the Graham Cracker Crust: In a large mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt. Pour in melted butter and stir until the mixture resembles damp sand. Press firmly into a 9-inch pie dish, covering the bottom and sides. Chill in the fridge for at least 15 minutes.
- Make the Chocolate Mousse: Melt chopped semisweet chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth. Let cool slightly. In a separate bowl, whip cold heavy cream with powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt using a hand mixer until soft peaks form. Gently fold the cooled chocolate into the whipped cream with a rubber spatula until evenly combined and fluffy.
- Assemble the Pie: Spoon the chocolate mousse onto the chilled crust. Smooth the top with a spatula. Cover with plastic wrap or foil and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best texture.
- Add the Marshmallow Topping: Sprinkle mini marshmallows evenly over the set mousse layer. For extra gooeyness, drizzle milk or cream over the marshmallows. Toast the marshmallows with a kitchen torch or under the broiler for 30–60 seconds until golden and puffed. Watch closely to prevent burning.
- Garnish & Serve: Let the pie cool for 5 minutes after toasting. Add chocolate shavings, extra graham crumbs, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce if desired. Slice with a sharp knife dipped in warm water for clean edges. Serve chilled.
Notes
For best results, chill the pie overnight before adding and toasting marshmallows. Use quality chocolate for a smoother mousse. To make gluten-free, use gluten-free graham crackers. For a vegan version, substitute coconut cream for heavy cream, vegan buttery spread for butter, and vegan marshmallows. Slice with a warm knife for clean edges. Add marshmallows just before serving for the freshest topping.
