Introduction

S’more Bars bring the classic campfire treat into an easy-to-make, oven-baked dessert perfect for any time of year. With a crunchy graham cracker crust, melted chocolate, and toasted marshmallows on top, these bars are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth and nostalgic cravings.

A stack of four square dessert bars is shown on a white marbled surface, each bar having three layers. The bottom layer is a crumbly, golden-brown crust with a coarse texture. The middle layer is thick and rich dark chocolate, smooth but with visible chunks and slight cracks. The top layer consists of toasted, golden-brown marshmallows, soft and puffed up, with a lightly browned surface. Crumbs and small chocolate pieces are scattered around the stack.

Ingredients

2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup melted butter
4 cups chocolate chips
1 package mini marshmallows

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
Step 2: Combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter in a bowl, mixing until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Step 3: Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared baking pan to form a crust.
Step 4: Bake the crust for 8 minutes, then remove it from the oven.
Step 5: Evenly sprinkle the chocolate chips over the hot crust, then add the mini marshmallows on top.
Step 6: Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the marshmallows are golden brown and toasted.
Step 7: Let the bars cool completely, then refrigerate to set before cutting into squares and serving.

Tips & Variations

For a richer flavor, try using a mix of milk and dark chocolate chips or add some chopped nuts to the crust.
If you prefer gooier marshmallows, reduce the final baking time slightly to avoid over-browning.
Make mini bars using a smaller pan for bite-sized treats perfect for parties or lunchboxes.

Storage

Store the s’more bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. For best texture, allow them to come to room temperature before serving or warm briefly in the microwave to soften the marshmallows.

How to Serve

The image shows several square chocolate marshmallow bars placed on a white marbled surface. Each bar has three visible layers: a crumbly golden brown base on the bottom, a thick middle layer of dark brown chocolate, and a top layer of evenly toasted white marshmallows that are browned in places with a soft, puffed texture. Scattered around the bars are loose toasted marshmallows and a few dark chocolate chips, adding texture and color contrast. The bars are cut into neat squares with clean edges, showing the distinct layers inside. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use another type of chocolate instead of chocolate chips?

Yes, chopped chocolate bars or chocolate chunks work well as substitutes and melt nicely under the marshmallows.

What if I don’t have graham cracker crumbs?

You can crush graham crackers yourself using a food processor or a zip-top bag and rolling pin. Alternatively, digestive biscuits can be used for a similar effect.
