How to Make S’mores Rolls
1. Make the Dough
In a stand mixer, combine milk, water, yeast, sugar, flour, melted butter, and salt. Mix until combined, then knead with a dough hook for 6–8 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let rest for 15 minutes.
2. Prepare the Filling
In a saucepan over low-medium heat, whisk cocoa powder, cream, and chocolate chips until smooth. Remove from heat, let cool slightly, then stir in graham cracker crumbs.
3. Assemble the Rolls
Roll dough into a 10×16-inch rectangle on a floured surface. Spread chocolate filling evenly, leaving edges clear. Roll tightly, slice into 8–10 rolls, and place in a greased baking pan.
4. Bake
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25–28 minutes until golden. Let cool for 10 minutes.
5. Make the Meringue
Whisk egg whites and sugar over a double boiler until warm and sugar dissolves. Transfer to mixer and whip until stiff peaks form with cream of tartar, salt, and vanilla.
6. Finish & Toast
Spread meringue over warm rolls and toast lightly with a kitchen torch or broiler until golden.
