Description

A unique dessert that combines the comforting flavors of mac and cheese with a sweet twist, featuring chocolate and marshmallows.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups elbow macaroni
  • 4 cups whole milk
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup crushed graham crackers (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Cook the elbow macaroni according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the milk, sugar, cocoa powder, butter, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until the mixture is smooth and the butter is melted.
  3. Add the cooked macaroni to the chocolate mixture and stir until well combined.
  4. Fold in the mini marshmallows and chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  5. Pour the mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish and spread it evenly.
  6. Sprinkle the crushed graham crackers on top for added texture.
  7. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 25-30 minutes, or until the dessert is set and the top is slightly crispy.
  8. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For a fun twist, try adding a swirl of peanut butter on top before baking for a rich flavor.
  • You can also substitute the chocolate chips with white chocolate or butterscotch chips for a different taste experience.
