Pillowy chocolate-covered clouds…
If you’ve ever had a real Mallomar, you know all about their deliciously light and almost ethereal charms! These 3 ingredient homemade Mallomars retain that perfect lightness without the accompanying long list of processed ingredients (which includes corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup, sugar, and unspecified artificial flavor) in the originals.
There’s even an option to make these Mallomars completely flourless!
Homemade Mallomars
(makes 8 – can be doubled)
- 1/4 cup marshmallow fluff (I used Healthy Vegan Marshmallow Fluff)
- graham crackers or this flourless option
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips or healthy chocolate bars
Use a cookie cutter or small circular lid to cut circles in your crackers or cookies. Make sure there will be room in your fridge or freezer, then cut out eight individual pieces of parchment or wax paper, place these pieces of paper on top of a baking tray or large plate, and set a cookie on each piece of paper. Take out a second plate or baking tray, and set it aside. In a deep bowl, melt your chocolate. (Google how to properly melt chocolate if you’ve never done it.) Place a spoonful of marshmallow fluff on one of the cookies. It should be thick enough to not run off the cookie (see above photo). If it runs off, this means the fluff needs to be beaten longer. Spoon chocolate evenly over the fluff and cookie, then pick up that individual piece of parchment and place it on the plate you had set aside. Refrigerate or freeze this plate. Spoon fluff and chocolate over a second cookie, then pick up that piece of parchment and move it to the plate in the fridge or freezer with the other finished cookie. Repeat with remaining cookies. Unless using coconut oil chocolate, these mallomars can stay out in a cool room for a few hours. To be on the safe side, I would store leftover vegan mallomars in the fridge or freezer.

Oh my goodness! OBSESSED with this idea! I love how simple (and healthy) you can make these candies that are usually just sugar-bombs! Pinned!
These look even BETTER than s’mores! What a fabulous campfire and picnic treat for the summer!
Ooh, these are cute and fun!
You are amazing Katie!! These look great! 🙂
These look so pretty, and so fluffy! Thanks for the recipe Katie 🙂 x
Wow! those look AMAZING! what i great idea!
i was just thinking- there is no way i can eat 8 of these in one day( i know that cutting the recipe in half is an opion, but it is so much easier not to,escecially when the recipe is a small batch) but if i made all eight and only ate two, would the marshmallow fluff on the inside be seperated? if so, i will just cut the recipe in half.
Thank you so much!

I loved this idea so much that when I saw the email with the title, I knew I would have to come home tonight and make them immediately. The ‘mallow fluff is like a science experiment – it came together beautifully, although not as “sticky” as I expected – very light weight and airy. Consequently, even though I managed to get it thick enough to keep peaks on the graham crackers, my chocolate flattened/deflated the ‘mallow when I drizzled it on. They were no where near as lovely as your pictures – big piles of chocolate mess – but sure taste yummy! Like gooey s’mores candies, albeit very messy and not solid whatsoever.
Does the “fluff” firm up at all in the freezer overnight? I kept them in the freezer about an hour before attempting to eat them. I have a few left to try again tomorrow… 🙂
You need it even stiffer! I tried the recipe and had the same thing happen to my first one as you did, even with peaks that seemed firm. So I took my beaters and beat the marshmallow fluff for another good five minutes, tried again, and bam! Perfect peaks strong enough to withstand the chocolate coating I added. I also did one at a time and used the freezer not the fridge option.
Good to know! I have plenty of “fluff” left in the fridge today (separating, yes), so maybe I will try re-beating it to make it stiffer and attempt again tonight. Thanks for the suggestion. I beat the fluff about 11 minutes total yesterday, and also kept them in the freezer as I assembled, as suggested in the recipe.
They look so cute! Just perfect 🙂
If you put a tiny bit of strawberry or raspberry jam on the center of the cracker then put the fluff and chocolate it’d be like a viva puff
Tiffany, I was truly tickled to see your post. I remember having Mallomars with the dab of raspberry jam in the middle when I was growing up in the Midwest in the 60/70’s. Haven’t seen them like that for a long time. I actually went on a Mallomars quest a couple of years ago, and couldn’t even find them in the stores. Apparently they don’t ship them out of the New England/New York area in the summer for fear of the chocolate melting? Anyway I never got any – until I see the recipe and your comment today. However, I’ve never heard of a viva puff. HMM-MM…..
Katie, I love your blog and can’t wait to make these childhood treats! Memories!
These sound amazing! 🙂
