Molly Yeh’s Gooey S’mores Pie Brings the Campfire Indoors

The s’more is a perfect bite with one flaw: it requires a fire. Molly Yeh’s answer, featured in Food Network’s roundup of cozy fall dessert videos published October 20, 2026, is to take the whole thing indoors — a gooey s’mores pie that layers dark chocolate and marshmallow into a sliceable dessert built for chilly evenings.

Yeh’s version leans into the campfire original rather than dressing it up beyond recognition. The crust is a proper pastry — a mix of all-purpose and whole wheat flour with cinnamon and a touch of nutmeg — rolled out and chilled well before baking. The filling keeps things elemental: good dark chocolate and a deep layer of mini marshmallows, finished with a cocoa glaze and, in true Yeh fashion, sprinkles on top.

The building blocks

• A spiced, buttery pie crust, made with a little whole wheat flour for nuttiness
• Dark chocolate bars, broken into the shell
• Mini marshmallows, piled high and toasted golden
• A simple cocoa glaze and sprinkles to finish

Tips for making it at home

Chill the dough thoroughly — Yeh rests hers for at least four hours — so the crust bakes up flaky instead of slumping. Keep a close eye on the marshmallows under the broiler or torch: they go from pale to bronzed in seconds, and that toasted top is the whole point. Finally, let the pie set before slicing. The recipe’s total time runs long mostly because of cooling and setting, and a patient wait is what gives you clean slices with a molten middle.

It serves a crowd — twelve slices — which makes it a natural for fall gatherings where a campfire is not on the agenda but the flavor absolutely is.
