Strawberry season is in full swing and I plan on keeping my refrigerator fully stocked until the end of it. Yep, I’m setting you up for a slew of strawberry recipes, like this one and few more.
For today, I’m keeping it simple with these Strawberry S’mores Bites. If you need any more convincing, these are great for entertaining—easy to make and always impressive. But it’s hard to go wrong with toasted marshmallow frosting and dipped chocolate.
And because they are so easy to make, I pumped out quite a few batches of these as thank you’s to all those that helped Matt and me when the baby came. I wish I could make some for every one of you that gave us such warm congratulations on our blogs and social media channels. You guys are awesome and I’m so thankful for your friendship and readership.
Strawberry S'mores
Yield: 14-16 Strawberry Bites
Ingredients:
- 14-16 medium strawberries, hulled
- 4 oz. chocolate (I used 65% cacao)
- 1 1/2 teaspoon shortening
- 4 tablespoon graham cracker crumbs
Marshmallow Frosting
- 2 egg whites
- 1/2 cup sugar
Directions:
Preparation: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place chocolate and shortening in a microwave safe bowl and heat in 15 second bursts stirring in between until chocolate is fully melted.
- Dip strawberries in chocolate, then graham cracker crumbs. Place dipped strawberries on on parchment lined baking sheet to dry.
- To make marshmallow frosting: Combine egg whites and sugar in a stand mixer bowl and place it over—not on, simmering water. Heat mixture to 160 degrees F while whisking constantly. Transfer to a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment and beat on medium high speed until mixture cools, doubles in volume and forms stiff peaks; about 10-12 minutes. Transfer marshmallow frosting to a pastry bag fitted with a close start tip and pipe into hulled strawberries. Use a kitchen torch to toast.
NOTES:
- To hull the strawberries, I used the Chef'n Strawberry Huller. It can be found on Amazon or at William Sonoma.
- You may have more marshmallow creme than you need.
- Save yourself some money and just buy a Bernzomatic propane torch instead of one of these kitchen torches you usually see in William Sonoma and Sur la Table. They can be twice the price and aren't nearly as strong.
So pretty, love the toasted frosting!
Congratulations on your new baby! : ) These are the perfect summer treat. I am so happy it’s strawberry season.
Oh my goodness, Naomi! These are truly the perfect indulgence! I need to whip up a batch asap!! xo

These look luscious! Such a simple yet genius idea.
P.S. I just heard that you’re going to host a food styling & photography workshop in Helsinki in September. Trying my best to get a spot! You’re such an inspiration.
So cute! These look great 🙂
Again, congrats on the new baby! I am SO excited for you!! And these bites are seriously amazing. Simple AND gorg! Pinned!
Looks great and I plan on trying it. However it looks like there is an ingredient missing. I assume that is crushed graham cracker on the bottom!
Those are SO adorable! What a unique way to eat s’mores! 🙂
Love the simplicity of these. You’re right, they would be perfect for entertaining! Have a great week!
Well, you’ve officially ruined chocolate dipped strawberries for me. Those are boring compared to these beauts!

Looks too dangerous!! I would keep on eating them – seems like Matt did haha 😉

these are the most perfect little bites ever Naomi! And you must be some kind of super mom to be up and making those already! I just sat around like a sweatpants blob for ages after having babies!
Oh, I just love these! And thank you for the recommendation on torches…I have been shopping around.
These look like little bites of Heaven! Congrats on your sweet little bundle of joy!

These are just fabulous Naomi!!
These are the most beautiful strawberries I’ve ever seen! That toasted marshmallow swirl is just gorgeous. Can’t believe you are still posting such amazing things with a new baby, you must be superwoman!
Wow Naomi, I can’t believe you just had a baby and you have the energy to make such beautiful recipes. Congratulations on your new cutest family member!
I guess it’s obvious, but how or what do you do with graham cracker crumbs. They appear to be ultra crumbed.
Such a unique and I bet crowd pleasing dessert!!
What a great way to enjoy strawberries!
These are so pretty and elegant, and apparently easy too? Then again I think you have a SuperMom outfit on under there somewhere, because who is blogging this soon after having a baby? Amazing and inspirational. Oh and, I forsee a lot of future uses for your super simple marshmallow frosting. Thanks for adding it to my tool belt.
This looks delicious!!! I’ll definitely make this recipe some time next week. 😀
These look AMAZING!!! Might just have to share these with my readers in my next Weekly Wonders post…we love some sweet stuff 🙂 xxx
When do you dip in the cracker crumbs?
