Re-creating the flavors of S’mores made around a campfire.

Ingredients

  • Egg Custard:
  • 14 egg yolks

  • 1 ½ c. confectioner’s sugar

  • ¼ c. flour

  • ¼ t. salt

  • 4 c. midnight chocolate milk

  • Toasted Marshmallow Simple Syrup:
  • 1 c. sugar

  • 1 c. water

  • 12 regular-sized marshmallows

  • 1 t. vanilla extract

  • Marshmallow Whipped Cream:
  • 1 ½ c. heavy cream

  • 7 oz. Marshmallow Fluff

  • 1 t. vanilla extract

  • 3 c. midnight chocolate milk

  • 2/3 of the toasted marshmallow simple syrup

  • ½ c. Stroopwafel Liqueur

  • Spike (optional):
  • 3 parts Smirnoff Fluffed Marshmallow Vodka

  • 1 parts Stroopwafel Liqueur

  • 1 part Chocolate Liqueur

  • 1 part Toasted Marshmallow Simple Syrup

Directions

  • Preheat your sous vide water bath to 144 degrees.
  • Combine eggs, sugar, flour, and salt from “Egg Custard” ingredients and whisk/beat. Keep adding & whisking sugar until pale yellow and satin-like in texture (be patient, they get thick).
  • Mix 1-quart chocolate milk into the egg mixture to complete the custard base.
  • Pour into a ziplock bag, remove air, and place into the 144 °F sous vide water bath for 1 hour.
  • Bring water and sugar “Toasted Marshmallow Simple Syrup” ingredients to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until sugar is completely dissolved.
  • While the syrup is simmering, carefully toast the marshmallows under the broiler, turning occasionally until they are browned all over.
  • Stir the marshmallows into the hot syrup and cook for another 2-3 minutes until marshmallows have dissolved.
  • Remove from heat and strain through a fine mesh strainer into a large glass measuring cup. Let cool completely, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Lightly whip cream from “Marshmallow Whipped Cream” ingredients. Fold in marshmallow fluff and vanilla extract and continue whipping until a loose whipped cream forms.
  • Add chocolate milk, 2/3 of the toasted marshmallow simple syrup, and the Stroopwafel Liqueur to the whipped cream
  • After the custard has been tempered, combine the egg mixture with cream (the egg with the nog), adjust to taste, and then transfer to storage containers. Refrigerate overnight.
  • Using the remaining toasted marshmallow simple syrup, combine “Spike” ingredients and adjust to taste.
  • Crush some graham crackers in a food processor and place crumbs into a shaker jar.
  • Garnish each cup with a generous dusting of graham crackers.
  • Optional: For a bit of flair, you use your Crème Brûlée torch to toast marshmallows for each cup!

Notes

  • Tempering the custard on the stovetop requires bringing the mixture to an internal temperature of 160 °F for a short time (2-3 minutes). Our sous vide recipe achieves the same result by holding the mixture at 144 °F for one hour!
