Substitutions and Variations

Here are some ideas to make these smores dessert cups different:

  • Chocolate - substitute the milk chocolate for white chocolate to make white chocolate smores pies.
  • Lemon - substitute the milk chocolate for lemon curd and make mini lemon meringue pies
  • Marshmallow Fluff - you can use premade marshmallow meringue, but it will not hold up as well as homemade
  • Marshmallows - you can use mini marshmallows and torch them just like over a campfire.

Top Tip

The graham cracker crust, needs to be completely cool before you spoon the chocolate ganache over it.

In turn the chocolate ganache needs to be cool as well, particularly when you pipe the marshmallow meringue over it.

HINT: For best results, refrigerate before assembling the tarts.

Equipment Recommended

Equipment can have a big impact on how a recipe turns out. You will need either a muffin tray and muffin liners made of parchment paper to easily make these gluten free muffins.

Measuring spoons and a measuring cup will also be helpful for measuring ingredients in this recipe.

Storing your S'Mores Cups

Once you have assembled these mini smores pies, you can place them in the refrigerator for up to 3 to 4 days.  You don't need to cover them, but make sure that nothing is touching them or the fluff might end up on some of your other stored food.

These smores dessert cups don't hold up well to freezing.
