Description
Campfire Éclairs are a fun and easy outdoor dessert made by cooking biscuit dough over an open flame until golden brown, then filled with creamy chocolate pudding, fresh strawberries, whipped cream, and a crunchy topping of M&M candies. Perfect for camping trips or backyard fireside treats, these éclairs combine the charm of rustic cooking with delicious, creamy textures.
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 refrigerated package of biscuit dough
- 14 oz chocolate pudding
- 1 pint strawberries, sliced
- 2 cups whipped cream
- 1/2 cup M&M candies
Instructions
- Pre-soak sticks: Soak your large sticks in water for 20 minutes to prevent them from burning during the cooking process over the fire.
- Prepare biscuit dough: Open and unroll the biscuit dough package. Stretch out and flatten each biscuit round in your hand to about 1/4-inch thick for uniform cooking.
- Wrap dough on sticks: Stretch one flattened biscuit dough round over a soaked stick, smoothing out any creases to ensure even cooking.
- Cook over fire: Hold the biscuit dough-covered stick over the flames, rotating continuously for 5-10 minutes until the dough is evenly browned and cooked through.
- Remove biscuit shells: Carefully slide the cooked biscuit shell off the stick once all sides are browned and the inside is fully cooked.
- Repeat cooking: Repeat the wrapping and cooking process with the remaining biscuit dough rounds.
- Fill éclairs: Evenly divide chocolate pudding and sliced strawberries to fill the inside of each biscuit shell.
- Top éclairs: Spoon whipped cream over the filled éclairs and sprinkle with M&M candies for added color and crunch.
Notes
- Make sure the sticks are thoroughly soaked to avoid burning during cooking.
- Rotate the biscuit dough consistently for even browning.
- You can substitute chocolate pudding with any other flavored pudding or custard you prefer.
- Use fresh strawberries or other berries for variation in flavor.
- If you don’t have access to an open fire, a grill or stovetop pan can work as an alternative cooking method.
