Ingredients
  

For the Muffins
  • 6 tbsp Unsalted Butter Provides moisture and richness; margarine can be used as a substitute.
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour Offers structure; gluten-free flour can be substituted for a gluten-free option.
  • 1/3 cup Cocoa Powder Adds the essential chocolate flavor; ensure it’s unsweetened for the best results.
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder A leavening agent that helps the muffins rise.
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Soda Works alongside baking powder for perfect fluffiness.
  • 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt Balances sweetness; regular salt can be substituted.
  • 1/2 cup Sugar Sweetens the muffins; brown sugar can add extra depth.
  • 1/2 cup Chocolate Chunks or Chips Offers rich chocolate flavor; semi-sweet is recommended for the ultimate s’mores experience.
  • 1/2 cup Vegetable Oil Adds moisture; can be replaced with melted coconut oil.
  • 1/2 cup Whole Milk Provides moisture and texture; can use plant-based milks if preferred.
  • 1/2 cup Greek Yogurt Contributes to moisture; substitute with regular yogurt or sour cream if needed.
  • 2 large Eggs Acts as a binding agent; flax eggs are a great vegan alternative.
  • 1 tbsp Vanilla Extract Enhances sweetness and richness; can be omitted for a less sweet muffin.
  • 1 cup Mini Marshmallows Creates that iconic s’mores effect; marshmallow bits can be used for a different texture.
For the Graham Cracker Streusel
  • 3/4 cup Graham Cracker Crumbs Provides texture and flavor; feel free to use alternative cookie crumbs for variation.
  • 1.5 tbsp Sugar Adds sweetness to the streusel; consider light brown sugar for a richer taste.
  • 3 tbsp Unsalted Butter Enhances the golden crunchiness; margarine can replace butter too.
