Ingredients

Scale

Dough

  • 1 cup lukewarm milk
  • 1/4 cup lukewarm water
  • 2 1/4 tsp instant yeast
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, divided
  • 1 tsp salt

Filling and Topping

  • 1/8 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/8 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 large egg whites, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/8 tsp cream of tartar
  • 1/8 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Activate Yeast: In a bowl, combine warm milk, lukewarm water, granulated sugar, and instant yeast. Let the mixture sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy, indicating the yeast is active.
  2. Make Dough: Stir in melted butter into the yeast mixture. Gradually add the all-purpose flour and salt to the liquid ingredients and stir until a soft dough forms.
  3. Knead Dough: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead it thoroughly until smooth and elastic, about 8-10 minutes. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean towel, and allow it to rise in a warm place until it doubles in size, approximately 1 hour.
  4. Prepare Filling: Roll the risen dough into a large rectangle. Brush melted butter evenly over the surface. Sprinkle unsweetened cocoa powder, graham cracker crumbs, and semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly across the dough. Add marshmallows if desired to replicate classic s’mores.
  5. Roll and Slice: Carefully roll the dough tightly from one end to the other, creating a log shape. Using a sharp knife, slice the dough into even rolls and place them cut-side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  6. Second Rise: Cover the rolls loosely and let them rise for an additional 30 minutes to puff up slightly. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  7. Bake: Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until they turn golden brown on top and are cooked through.
  8. Finish and Serve: Once baked, brush the rolls again with melted butter and sprinkle additional graham cracker crumbs over the top for extra texture and flavor. Serve warm and enjoy your gooey, chocolatey s’mores rolls!

Notes

  • Ensure the milk and water are warm but not hot to avoid killing the yeast.
  • You can add mini marshmallows to the filling to intensify the s’mores flavor.
  • For best texture, slice the rolls evenly to ensure uniform baking.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or freeze for longer storage.
  • Reheat rolls in a microwave for 15-20 seconds or warm them in a low oven before serving.
