spiked s'mores pie recipe

Bourbon gives the pie its boozy flavour, but feel free to leave it out since it does not change the consistency of the set ganache.

1 Tbsp sugar
pinch of salt
1/4 cup butter, melted

boutbon ganache:
2 cups double cream

3 egg whites
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
pinch of salt
1/4 cup sugar
1 jar of marshmallow fluff
2 1/2 cup mini marshmallows

chocolate bar for garnish
1 whole graham cracker for garnish


Method:
1. whisk together crumbs, sugar and salt in a medium bowl, add melted butter and stir until the mixture resembles wet sand. press into the bottom of a pan. set aside
