Indulgent Smores Crunchwrap

I stumbled into the Indulgent S’mores Crunchwrap one rainy afternoon, staring at leftover marshmallows, a jar of chocolate spread, and tortillas that were supposed to become dinner. Instead of a savory quesadilla, I folded them all together like a crunchwrap, half curious, half amused.

The first bite was a revelation crisp tortilla outside, gooey chocolate and marshmallow inside, with that unexpected crunch in the middle. It brought back childhood evenings of sticky fingers and backyard marshmallow roasts, only now dressed up as a neatly sealed, skillet-toasted treat.

What surprised me most was how effortless it was. In under 20 minutes, the kitchen smelled like campfire sweetness, and I had a dessert that felt both nostalgic and playful. Sharing one keeps it from feeling over the top, but still gives you that little spark of indulgence everyone deserves.

Short Description

Indulgent Smores Crunchwrap is a golden, skillet-toasted tortilla filled with melted chocolate, gooey marshmallows, and a crunchy tostada shell. A playful twist on the campfire classic, ready in under 20 minutes.

Key Ingredients

• 2 large (10-inch) flour tortillas
• 4 tablespoons chocolate hazelnut spread or melted semi-sweet chocolate
• 1 cup miniature marshmallows
• 2 small (6-inch) corn tostada shells or flat corn chips
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Tools Needed

• Large nonstick skillet or griddle
• Small mixing bowl
• Sturdy spatula
• Pastry brush
• Cutting board and sharp knife

Cooking Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Fillings
In a small bowl, stir together granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Set aside. If you’re using a chocolate bar instead of spread, chop it finely so it melts evenly.

Step 2: Assemble the Base
Lay one large flour tortilla flat. Spread 2 tablespoons of chocolate hazelnut spread (or chopped chocolate) in a circle in the center, leaving a 2-inch border. Top with ½ cup miniature marshmallows.

Step 3: Add the Crunch Layer
Place one tostada shell (or a small handful of flat corn chips) directly on top of the marshmallows. This creates the crucial crunch that sets the recipe apart.

Step 4: Fold and Seal
Fold the tortilla inward toward the center, creating pleats until the filling is fully enclosed. Place it folded-side down on a plate. Repeat with the second tortilla.

Step 5: Toast to Perfection
Heat a large skillet over medium-low heat. Brush the top of each crunchwrap with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Place them sugar-side up in the skillet. Cook 3–4 minutes until the bottom is golden.

Flip carefully with a spatula, brush the new top with butter, sprinkle more cinnamon sugar, and cook another 3–4 minutes. The inside should be molten and gooey.

Step 6: Serve Immediately
Transfer to a cutting board. Let cool for 1 minute (to avoid burns), then slice in half. Serve warm while the marshmallows are still stretchy and the chocolate silky.

Mistakes to Avoid & Solutions

Overstuffing the tortilla
Filling it too much makes sealing impossible and causes leaks.
Solution
Use the listed amounts. Less is more—it ensures everything stays neatly inside.

Skipping the crunch layer
Without a tostada shell or chips, you’ll lose the signature crunch.
Solution
Always include some kind of sturdy crunch element. Even thick pita chips will work.

Cooking on too high heat
High heat burns the outside before the inside melts.
Solution
Stick to medium-low. Patience guarantees golden brown tortillas and gooey centers.

Not sealing tightly
Loose folds let marshmallow spill out while cooking.
Solution
Pleat carefully and press the folds down firmly before toasting.

Skipping the cooling step
Biting in too soon risks burns from hot marshmallow.
Solution
Wait one minute after cooking. It’s still warm, but safer to eat.

Storage and Reheating Tips

Store cooled crunchwraps in an airtight container in the fridge up to 2 days

Reheat in a skillet over low heat for 2–3 minutes per side to regain crispness

Avoid microwaving, which makes the tortilla soggy

For freezing, wrap tightly in foil, then reheat directly from frozen in a skillet

FAQs

1. Can I use whole wheat tortillas instead of flour?
Yes, but they may not crisp as evenly. Brush with extra butter for better browning.

2. What if I don’t have tostada shells?
Flat corn chips, pita chips, or even sturdy crackers will work for the crunch layer.

3. Can I make these ahead of time?
You can assemble in advance, but toast them just before serving for best texture.

4. Can I use dark chocolate instead of hazelnut spread?
Absolutely. Dark chocolate adds a more intense, slightly bitter flavor that balances the sweetness.

5. How do I prevent marshmallows from leaking out?
Seal folds tightly and cook with the folded side down first to set the structure.

Tips & Tricks

Warm tortillas slightly before folding to prevent tearing
