Start by preparing the graham cracker layer. Crush the graham crackers into coarse crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed plastic bag and crushing them with a rolling pin. Set aside.
Make the chocolate ganache: Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it just starts to simmer. Remove from heat and pour it over the chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl. Let it sit for 1 minute, then stir until smooth and glossy. Stir in the vanilla extract and allow the ganache to cool slightly.
Toast the mini marshmallows: Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Use a kitchen torch to carefully toast the top of the marshmallows until golden brown. (Alternatively, you can place them under a broiler for about 30 seconds, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.) Set aside.
Assemble the parfaits in 4 serving glasses. Start with a layer of crushed graham crackers (about 2 tablespoons per glass). Add a layer of chocolate ganache (2-3 tablespoons), followed by a layer of toasted mini marshmallows (about 2 tablespoons). Repeat the layers until the glasses are filled, finishing with a dollop of whipped cream on top.
Garnish each parfait with additional toasted marshmallows, a sprinkle of chocolate shavings, and a small piece of graham cracker for decoration.
Serve immediately with spoons and enjoy the gooey, creamy, crunchy goodness of s'mores in a glass!
