Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3 cups mini marshmallows
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, sugar, and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and allow to cool.
- In a large saucepan over low heat, melt the chocolate chips, stirring until smooth.
- Add the heavy cream and vanilla extract to the melted chocolate, whisking until everything is well combined.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and fold in the mini marshmallows until they are evenly distributed throughout the chocolate mixture.
- Pour the filling into the cooled crust and spread it evenly.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set.
- Before serving, sprinkle with chopped pecans if desired.
Notes
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The crust may soften over time but the flavors remain delightful.
