Substitutions
- Bread: If you prefer a healthier option, whole grain bread can be used instead of brioche.
- Dark Chocolate: Milk chocolate or even a chocolate-hazelnut spread could be used for a sweeter taste.
Variations
- Berry S'mores Sandwich: Add some fresh berries for a fruity twist.
- Nutty S'mores Sandwich: Add a layer of almond or peanut butter for a nutty flavor.
- Spiced S'mores Sandwich: Sprinkle some cinnamon or nutmeg for a warm, spiced touch.
Equipment
- Stand Mixer: Essential for whisking the marshmallow to the right consistency. A hand mixer can be used, but it may take longer.
- Torch: For the fancier version to get the campfire effect. If you don't have a torch, you can use a broiler.
Storage
Store any leftover homemade marshmallow in an airtight container at room temperature. The sandwiches are best enjoyed fresh.
