S’more Bars Recipe

Introduction

S’more bars bring the classic campfire treat indoors in an easy-to-make dessert. With a crunchy graham cracker crust, melted chocolate, and toasted marshmallows on top, these bars satisfy that sweet craving any time of year.

A close-up image shows a stack of three s'mores bars on a white marbled surface. Each bar has three layers: a crumbly, golden brown graham cracker crust at the bottom, a thick, rich dark chocolate middle layer with a slightly rough texture, and a top layer of toasted marshmallows that are golden and puffy with slight browning on the peaks. Some crumbs and a few chocolate chips are scattered around the base of the stack, adding to the rustic look. The bars are square-shaped and appear moist and dense. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Tips & Variations

  • For extra gooey marshmallows, add them halfway through baking and finish with a quick broil to brown.
  • Try mixing half milk and half dark chocolate chips for a richer flavor.
  • Use a silicone spatula to press the crust for easier removal and less sticking.

Storage

Store leftover s’more bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat briefly in the microwave for a warm, melty treat or enjoy chilled.

How to Serve

The image shows many square dessert bars laid out on a white marbled surface. Each bar has three distinct layers: the bottom layer is a golden-brown crumbly graham cracker crust, the middle layer is a smooth, dark chocolate filling, and the top layer is made of evenly toasted marshmallows that are light golden with some slight browned spots. The marshmallows appear soft and puffed, with a slightly uneven texture. There are scattered chocolate chips and small white marshmallows around the bars, adding to the rustic look. The bars are arranged in a casual way, some touching and some with small gaps between them. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use a different type of cookie crumb for the crust?

Yes, crushed digestive biscuits or vanilla wafers can be great alternatives to graham crackers, providing a similar texture and flavor.

What can I do if I don’t have mini marshmallows?

You can cut regular-sized marshmallows into smaller pieces or layer marshmallow fluff on top after baking, though the texture will differ slightly.

Notes

  • Use full-size mini marshmallows for best toasting results.
  • You can substitute semi-sweet chocolate chips with milk or dark chocolate chips as preferred.
  • Pressing the crust firmly helps it hold together better when sliced.
  • Refrigeration before cutting prevents the chocolate from melting and keeps bars neat.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
