Ingredients for this S’mores Sushi

  • 2 cups sweet sticky rice (sushi rice), cooked and cooled
  • 1 tbsp sugar (optional, for extra sweetness in rice)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 4 large marshmallows or 1 cup marshmallow fluff
  • 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips or chocolate sauce (melted)
  • 1 sheet nori (optional, for structure or authenticity)
  • Plastic wrap (for rolling)

Step 1: Prepare the Sticky Rice

Cook your sweet sushi rice according to package directions. While it’s still warm, stir in the sugar and vanilla extract. Allow it to cool completely so it’s easier to handle.

Step 2: Set Up the Rolling Surface

Place a sheet of plastic wrap on your work surface. If you’re using nori for structure or added flavor, place it on top of the plastic wrap.

Step 3: Spread the Rice

With damp fingers, evenly press a layer of the cooled rice onto the plastic wrap (or nori). Aim for a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 4: Add the Marshmallow Center

Lay marshmallow fluff or large marshmallows in a line along one edge of the rice. This will become the center of your sushi roll.

Step 5: Sprinkle Graham Cracker Crumbs

Generously sprinkle the graham cracker crumbs over the marshmallows and the rest of the rice surface. This adds crunch and that signature s’mores flavor.

Step 6: Roll It Up

Using the plastic wrap, carefully roll the rice into a tight cylinder, sushi-style. Press gently but firmly to keep everything together.

Step 7: Slice and Garnish

Unwrap the roll and use a sharp, wet knife to slice it into 1-inch pieces. Drizzle with melted chocolate or chocolate sauce and sprinkle more graham cracker crumbs on top for extra flair.

Step 8: Serve and Enjoy

Arrange your S’mores Sushi on a platter and serve immediately for the best texture. Perfect as a unique party dessert or fun weekend treat!


Frequently Asked Questions

How do I keep the rice from sticking to my hands?

Use a small bowl of water to dampen your fingers before handling the rice. It helps keep things manageable.

Can I use regular rice instead of sushi rice?

Sushi rice is ideal due to its stickiness. Regular rice won’t hold together as well.

Is the nori necessary?

No, it’s optional. It’s mainly for structure or if you want a more traditional sushi appearance.

Can I use mini marshmallows instead of large ones?

Absolutely. Just line them up end to end along the rice and roll.

What chocolate works best?

Semi-sweet or dark chocolate is best for contrast, but milk chocolate or even chocolate syrup will work just fine.

Can I make this ahead of time?

You can make it a few hours ahead and store it in the fridge. Just wait to slice and drizzle until right before serving for best presentation.
