Method

Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Put the squash or pumpkin on a baking tray and toss to coat in the oil. Cover with foil, then roast for 30 mins or until soft but not browned, tossing halfway through. Leave to cool for 5 mins.
Transfer the roasted squash or pumpkin to a food processor with the spices, maple syrup and egg; blitz until smooth. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
Line a 12-hole muffin tin with paper cases. Wipe out the food processor and blitz the biscuits to fine crumbs. Add the melted butter and pulse a few times to combine, then divide the mixture between the muffin cases, using your fingers to press it firmly into the base and halfway up the sides until tightly packed. Bake for 10 mins.
Spoon the pumpkin mixture over the biscuit bases, then cover with foil and bake for another 15 mins. Cool in the tin for a few mins and preheat the grill to high.
Top each s’mores bite with a square of chocolate, followed by a marshmallow half, then grill for 1½-2 mins until the marshmallows have melted a little. Leave to cool slightly in the tin for a few mins before removing the paper cases to serve.
