Ingredients
Filling
- 1 cup small marshmallows (fresh, not stale)
- 1/2 cup milk chocolate pieces (Ghirardelli chocolate chips recommended)
- 1/2 cup crushed graham cracker crumbs (finely crushed, about 8–10 crackers)
Quesadilla Base and Cooking
- 2 large wheat tortillas (soft and pliable for folding)
- 2 tablespoons butter (softened, for greasing and cooking)
- Powdered sugar for dusting (optional, for sweetness and presentation)
Instructions
- Prepare Your Mise en Place and Heat the Griddle:
Preheat your Blackstone griddle to medium-low heat. While it’s heating, crush your graham crackers into fine, even crumbs using a sealed bag and rolling pin. Measure out your marshmallows, chocolate pieces, and have softened butter ready. Having all ingredients prepped ensures smooth cooking once the tortillas hit the griddle.
- Butter and Layer the Tortillas with Filling:
Spread a thin, even layer of softened butter on one side of each wheat tortilla. Place the first tortilla buttered side down on the hot griddle. Quickly and evenly sprinkle marshmallows, chocolate pieces, and graham cracker crumbs over the unbuttered side of the tortilla on the griddle. Top with the second tortilla, buttered side up. The butter on the outside helps to create a golden, crispy crust.
- Cook and Flip Until Golden and Melted:
Let the quesadilla cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and slightly crispy. Then carefully flip it using a spatula and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes until golden and the filling begins to ooze slightly. Listen for a gentle sizzle to avoid burning.
- Cool and Slice Into Wedges:
Transfer the cooked quesadilla to a cutting board and allow it to cool for about 1 minute so the filling can set slightly but remain warm and gooey. Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to slice into triangular wedges. Dust lightly with powdered sugar if desired for extra sweetness and a nice presentation.
Notes
- Use fresh, small marshmallows for the best melting texture.
- Softened butter is easier to spread evenly on the tortillas.
- Adjust griddle temperature to medium-low to prevent burning while allowing filling to melt properly.
- Crush graham crackers finely to ensure even distribution and texture in the quesadilla.
- Powdered sugar is optional but adds an attractive finish and mild extra sweetness.
