Steps:
- For graham cracker crumb layer:
- Preheat oven to 300°F. Line rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine all ingredients in processor. Using on/off turns, blend until coarse crumbs form. Spread crumbs out on prepared baking sheet (if necessary, break up any large pieces with fingertips). Bake until crumbs are crisp, stirring once, about 10 minutes. Cool. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.
- For puddings:
- Whisk sugar, cornstarch, cocoa powder, espresso powder, and salt in heavy medium saucepan. Add egg yolks and whisk to blend (mixture will resemble wet sand). Gradually whisk in milk, then cream. Whisk constantly over medium heat until mixture comes to boil, then boil 30 seconds. Remove from heat. Add chocolate, whiskey, butter, and vanilla; whisk until chocolate and butter melt and mixture is smooth. Let pudding cool slightly, whisking occasionally, about 10 minutes.
- Spoon 1/3 cup pudding into each of six 1-cup glasses; spread evenly. Sprinkle each with graham cracker crumbs, dividing equally. Top each with 1/3 cup pudding, spreading evenly. Cover each with plastic wrap, pressing plastic directly onto pudding. Chill at least 2 hours. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Keep chilled.
- For marshmallow topping:
- Blend all ingredients in large bowl of stand mixer fitted with whisk attachment. Set mixer bowl with egg white mixture over saucepan of simmering water. Using hand whisk, whisk mixture constantly until instant-read thermometer inserted into mixture registers 160°F, about 6 minutes. Attach mixer bowl with egg white mixture to stand mixer again and beat on high speed until marshmallow topping forms stiff peaks, 6 to 8 minutes.
- Top each pudding with 2 large spoonfuls of marshmallow topping, covering top completely and creating peaks, if desired. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Chill.
- Using kitchen butane torch, lightly toast marshmallow topping until golden in spots.

Steps:
- In a medium resealable plastic bag, place the pretzels and crush with a rolling pin into medium-sized crumbs.
- In another medium resealable plastic bag, place the graham crackers and crush with a rolling pin until crushed into medium-sized crumbs.
- Microwave peanut butter in a microwave-safe bowl for 30 seconds or until runny.
- In two 8-ounce mason jars, place the crushed pretzels on the bottom of the jars, then a layer of Sabra's Dark Chocolate Dip & Spread, marshmallow fluff, graham cracker crumbs, Sabra's Dark Chocolate Dip & Spread, marshmallow fluff, peanut butter, and top with mini marshmallows.
- Using a kitchen torch, torch the marshmallows with quick back-and-forth passes approximately 8-10 inches away so marshmallows toast but don't burn. Marshmallows should start turning golden brown after about 10-20 seconds. Make sure to rotate the jar halfway through to ensure that all marshmallows are golden brown.
- Garnish with chocolate shavings and enjoy!

Tips:
- Choose high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better your s'mores will be. Look for a dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
- Use graham crackers that are fresh and crispy. Stale graham crackers will make your s'mores soggy.
- Toast your marshmallows over a campfire or grill. Toasting the marshmallows will give them a delicious smoky flavor.
- Don't overcook your marshmallows. Overcooked marshmallows will be tough and chewy.
- Assemble your s'mores while the marshmallows are still warm and gooey. This will help the chocolate and graham crackers to stick together.
- Get creative with your s'mores. You can add different toppings to your s'mores, such as peanut butter, Nutella, or bacon.
Conclusion:
Dark chocolate s'mores are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a campfire classic that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a sweet and satisfying snack, give dark chocolate s'mores a try.
