I remember back when I thought s’mores were just toasted marshmallows and melted chocolate sandwiched between two graham crackers. Boy, was I missing out. If that’s all that s’mores are, then I would miss out on pancakes and brownies and bars and even cheese balls. As much as I love those traditional s’mores, I think my life would be missing something without all of the other ways to get your s’mores fix. Especially now that it’s getting quite chilly outside, and there’s no way I’ll stand out in the wind, rain and snow so that I can toast a marshmallow.
And what would life be without s’mores for breakfast?? Ok, technically, these are breakfast because they are muffins, but they could definitely fall into the dessert category, too. Chocolate muffins with graham cracker crumbs, marshmallows and chocolate chips – and then finish it all off with some marshmallow creme and more graham cracker crumbs and chocolate chips? I’m pretty sure this is my idea of a pretty awesome breakfast.
These are pretty straight forward – they are muffins after all. I always seem to have a half empty container of marshmallow creme on hand (come on – you know you do, too…), so I thought this would make the perfect topping for these muffins. The muffins can be made a little bit ahead of time, but I wouldn’t top them until you are ready to serve them. The marshmallow can get a little messy, but what’s a s’more without the mess??
I’m thinking you need to bake up a batch of these this weekend!!

This is kind of incredible! Unfortunately…I’m not a s’more person. I would rather just have the marshmallow toasted. But in everything else, I love s’more…just not over the fire s’mores. I’m kind of weird.
