Cookie, chocolate, and marshmallow: the delicious flavors of a s’more, rearranged. Store-bought marshmallows are fine, though this dessert is even better with the homemade version. Try mixing and matching marshmallow and Pocky flavors to find your favorite combination. For example, strawberry-flavored marshmallows with matcha-flavored Pocky evoke the traditional combination of a cup of hot matcha accompanied by a strawberry-filled daifuku mochi.

Recipe information

  • Total Time

    5 minutes

  • Yield

    Serves 2

Ingredients

1 packet of Pocky, your favorite flavor
1 bag of marshmallows, your favorite flavor

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Open the packet of Pocky and the bag of marshmallows.

    Step 2

    Carefully skewer several marshmallows (depending on their size) onto each Pocky. It may be easier to make a hole in the marshmallows using a skewer before threading them onto the Pocky, as the Pocky are prone to breaking. Do not overload the Pocky, as they may break under the weight of the marshmallows. The marshmallows can also catch fire, so leave enough Pocky to keep a safe distance from your hand and the marshmallows should this occur.

    Step 3

    Using your stove, a kitchen blowtorch, or, preferably, an open fire, toast the marshmallows, being careful not to burn the marshmallows or yourself. Allow to cool slightly before devouring.
