Recipe for S’mores Pie FAQs
What is the texture of this pie?
Anytime you’re making a new pie, you are most likely curious about the texture of it. This S’mores Pie is very smooth and rich. You’ll find that chocolate ganache filling is also thick and smooth! The graham cracker crust is very sweet and buttery, which is always a favorite flavor of mine! Without a doubt, you are going to get that classic s’mores flavor in the form of a pie, and it’s so good!
What happens if the chocolate chips aren’t all the way melted?
If the chocolate chips still have some melting to do after mixing with the hot heavy cream, I have a tip for you. Place the mixture into a microwave-safe bowl and then place it in the microwave. You’ll want to do this in 30-minute increments until it’s melted.
Can I use a store-bought graham cracker crust?
Perhaps my favorite hack for this recipe is that you don’t have to make the homemade crust. You can, instead, go to the store and buy a graham cracker crust!
