Soft and fluffy with a slightly crisp streusel topping, these muffins capture the essence of classic s’mores in an easy, oven-baked treat perfect for breakfast or dessert.

Ingredients

Streusel Topping

  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 1/2 tbsp sugar

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (240 grams)
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder (33 grams)
  • 1/2 cup sugar (100 grams)
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chunks or semi-sweet chocolate chips (plus more for garnish)

Wet Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 4 oz chocolate, melted
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup whole milk (can substitute other milk)
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract

Additional Ingredients

  • 1 cup mini marshmallows (plus more for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Streusel Topping: Melt 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter in the microwave for about 30 seconds or until fully melted. Stir in the graham cracker crumbs and 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar until combined to form a wet sand-like mixture. Refrigerate while you prepare the muffin batter.
  2. Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C). Spray a muffin tin with non-stick baking spray and line the cups with muffin liners for easy removal.
  3. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/3 cup cocoa powder, 1/2 cup sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Add the chocolate chunks or chips and toss lightly to coat them with the dry mixture.
  4. Melt Chocolate and Combine Wet Ingredients: In a second medium bowl, melt 4 tablespoons butter and 4 ounces chocolate together in the microwave, heating in 30-second intervals until fully melted and smooth. Stir well to combine.
  5. Add Remaining Wet Ingredients: To the melted chocolate mixture, add 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 1/2 cup whole milk, 1/2 cup Greek yogurt, 2 large eggs, and 1 tablespoon vanilla extract. Whisk well until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  6. Add Marshmallows to Dry Ingredients: Sprinkle 1 cup mini marshmallows over the dry ingredient bowl.
  7. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients all at once into the bowl with the dry ingredients and marshmallows. Using a large spatula, gently fold the flour mixture into the wet ingredients just until no large streaks remain. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be lumpy.
  8. Scoop Batter Into Muffin Tin: Using an ice cream scoop for even portions, fill each muffin liner all the way to the top with batter.
  9. Add Garnishes: Place a few additional chocolate chunks and some mini marshmallows on the top of each muffin for extra gooey topping.
  10. Top with Streusel: Evenly sprinkle the prepared graham cracker streusel topping over each muffin generously.
  11. Bake Muffins: Bake the muffins at 425°F (220°C) for 7 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for another 13 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs but no wet batter.
  12. Cool Muffins: Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5-10 minutes. Then carefully run a knife or offset spatula around the edges to loosen and transfer each muffin onto a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Notes

  • Use semi-sweet chocolate chips or chunks for the best flavor contrast with the cocoa and marshmallows.
  • Do not overmix the batter to ensure your muffins stay tender and fluffy.
  • Allow muffins to cool completely to let marshmallows set and avoid falling apart when removing from liners.
  • Whole milk can be substituted with any other milk type or a milk alternative.
  • Add extra mini marshmallows on top before baking for an even gooier and decorative finish.
  • The streusel topping gives a nice crunchy contrast but can be skipped if desired for a more classic muffin texture.
