Tips and Tricks

  • Mix melted butter into the graham cracker crumbs for a richer, buttery base.
  • Swap some of the milk for heavy cream to make the pudding even creamier.
  • No marshmallow fluff? Use mini marshmallows—they toast up beautifully!
  • No torch? No problem! Place the jars on a baking sheet and broil for a minute or two until the marshmallow is perfectly golden.
  • Switch up the chocolate: Try dark chocolate, chocolate chips, or even a drizzle of chocolate ganache.

How long do these stay fresh?
They’ll keep in the fridge for 2-3 days, but for peak deliciousness, wait to toast the marshmallow until just before eating.
