S’mores Bars



Who says you need a campfire to enjoy the magic of s’mores?

These S’mores Bars bring all the gooey, chocolatey, marshmallowy goodness right to your kitchen.

They’re easy to make, outrageously delicious, and perfect for sharing (or not—no judgment here). Imagine golden graham cracker crumbs layered with melty chocolate and toasted marshmallows, all baked into a handheld bar that screams comfort and nostalgia.

Let’s make some sticky-sweet memories!


How to Make It


Prepare the Graham Cracker Crust
Crush the graham crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor or by sealing them in a zip-top bag and crushing them with a rolling pin. Mix the crumbs with melted butter and sugar in a bowl until they resemble wet sand. Press this mixture evenly into a parchment-lined 8×8-inch baking pan, using the bottom of a flat glass to smooth it out.

Layer the Chocolate
Unwrap the chocolate bars and place them in a single layer on top of the crust. Break the bars into pieces if needed to ensure full coverage. The chocolate should create a solid layer without overlapping.

Add the Marshmallows
Scatter mini marshmallows generously over the chocolate layer. Make sure they’re evenly distributed to ensure every bite gets a gooey marshmallow experience.

Bake and Toast
Place the pan in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the marshmallows puff up and turn golden brown. Keep a close eye on them to avoid burning!

Cool and Slice
Remove the pan from the oven and let the bars cool completely. Once cooled, use a sharp knife to slice them into squares. For cleaner slices, chill the bars in the fridge for 15 minutes before cutting.


Pro Tips


  • Use mini marshmallows for even coverage and easier slicing.
  • Don’t skip the parchment paper—it makes removing and slicing the bars a breeze.
  • For an extra indulgent twist, drizzle melted chocolate over the cooled bars.


Storage


Store leftover bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For a longer shelf life, refrigerate them for up to a week, though they may lose some of their gooeyness.
