Ingredients
  

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

1 cup mini marshmallows, plus extra for topping

1 cup milk chocolate chips

1/2 cup heavy cream

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Mini chocolate bar pieces (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crust: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar. Pour in the melted butter and stir until the mixture resembles moist sand, ensuring all crumbs are coated.

    Form the Cups: Line a muffin tin with muffin liners. Evenly distribute the graham cracker mixture into each liner, pressing down firmly with your fingers or the bottom of a glass to create a solid, even crust. Once formed, place the muffin tin in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes to allow the crust to firm up.

      Heat the Chocolate: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the milk chocolate chips and heavy cream. Stir continuously until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth, creating a silky chocolate mixture. Once melted, remove from heat and blend in the vanilla extract for extra flavor.

        Layer the Cups: After the crust has set, carefully remove the muffin tin from the refrigerator. Pour the warm melted chocolate mixture over each graham cracker crust, filling each cup approximately 3/4 full, ensuring even distribution.

          Add Marshmallows: Generously top each chocolate layer with mini marshmallows, lightly pressing them down to adhere to the chocolate.

            Melt the Topping: For an added touch, use a kitchen torch to gently toast the marshmallows until they are golden brown and slightly charred. Alternatively, you can broil them in the oven on high for 1-2 minutes—be sure to watch them closely to avoid burning.

              Chill Again: Return the assembled S’mores cups to the refrigerator for at least 1-2 hours, allowing the chocolate layer to set completely and the marshmallows to stabilize.

                Serve and Garnish: Just before serving, enhance each S’mores cup with mini chocolate bar pieces on top and an additional sprinkle of mini marshmallows, if desired. These no-bake treat cups are best enjoyed chilled—perfect for a sweet snack or dessert!
