Step-by-Step Instructions for S’mores Pie
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine crushed graham cracker crumbs, melted salted butter, and sugar until well blended. Transfer this mixture into a deep-dish pie plate, pressing it firmly across the bottom and up the sides to form an even crust. Bake the crust for about 8-10 minutes, or until it turns lightly golden and fragrant, then remove it from the oven and let it cool.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar, cornstarch, and kosher salt. Gradually whisk in whole milk, continuously stirring until the mixture thickens and starts to bubble, about 4-6 minutes. Once thickened, remove from heat and add the egg yolks one at a time, stirring vigorously. Finally, mix in semi-sweet chocolate, butter, and vanilla extract, stirring until everything is smooth and glossy.
- Carefully pour the luscious chocolate filling into the prepared graham cracker crust, smoothing the top to create an even layer. Use a spatula to ensure the filling is evenly distributed throughout the crust.
- Cover your assembled S’mores Pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Evenly distribute mini or jumbo marshmallows over the chilled S’mores Pie. Using a kitchen torch, carefully toast the marshmallows until they’re golden brown and gooey, about 1-2 minutes.
- Slice your beautifully toasted S’mores Pie into generous wedges and serve warm alongside whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Notes
For cleaner slices, dip your knife in hot water before cutting. Chilling the pie overnight leads to a firmer filling, making it easier to cut and serve perfect slices.
