FAQs

Can I make more than four at once?

Yes—double or triple the recipe and heat in batches or on a larger baking sheet.

Can I use regular-size pie shells?

Absolutely—adjust filling amounts and watch heating time (may need a bit longer).

Is pudding necessary?

You can substitute with melted chocolate, chocolate ganache, or brownie bites.

How do I get that golden-brown top?

Broil briefly and keep a close eye, or use a kitchen torch for precision.

Are they freezer-friendly?

Not recommended—the texture of the marshmallow and shell changes after freezing.

Can I use homemade pudding?

Yes—just make it thicker than usual to hold its shape in the shell.

What chocolate works best?

Milk or semi-sweet instant pudding or ganache work great; dark chocolate adds richness.

Can I skip the marshmallows?

Sure—they still taste great with just chocolate and crust—just call them mini chocolate pies!

How do I make them gluten-free?

Use gluten-free mini pie shells and puding/ingredients labeled gluten-free.

Can I make pre-assembled then toast later?

Yes—prepare ahead and toast just before serving for the best presentation.
