S’Mores Bars
These S’Mores Bars are a super easy sweet treat that are just like baked cookie bars.
They have all of the great components of a S’More: graham crackers, marshmallow and chocolate. Brooks (RecipeBoy) first made these S’Mores Bars way back in 2011 when he was just 11 years old. So if an 11-year old can make them, I’d say anyone can make them. I’ve updated the photos, and I’ve added a how-to video too.
They’re good dessert bars to put out at a party. And as Brooks described them so many years ago, they get devoured immediately because everyone loves them so much!
How to make S’Mores Bars:
Start with making a graham cracker cookie crust (made of flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder, salt, butter, brown sugar and eggs). You’re going to divide the dough for the crust in half.
Pat half of the crust into a 9×13-inch pan. Save the rest of the graham cracker cookie dough for the top of the bars.
Place large but evenly spaced scoops of Marshmallow Creme on the crust. Then spread it around to cover the crust.
Sprinkle milk chocolate chips on top.
Put the remaining cookie dough on top. Just crumble the dough with your hands and sprinkle it on top. You don’t need to cover the top. The marshmallow and chocolate chips will peek out here and there.
Bake it, and eat the results… which turn out to be really gooey and yummy. If you want to make S’Mores that are portable, you should make a batch of these. They turn out really well and they’re perfect for any occasion.
Here are a few items you can buy on Amazon that you can use for this recipe:
(Amazon affiliate links are included here)
- 9×13-inch pan: I like this one. It’s a good nonstick pan with good reviews. And it has a lid for easy storage of your baked goods!
- Marshmallow Creme: a 7-ounce jar has about 2 1/2 cups, so you’ll just need one jar.
- graham cracker crumbs
- chocolate chips
If a kid can make these bars, you can too!

S'Mores Bars
Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1½ cups packed light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 2 cups marshmallow topping (such as Marshmallow Creme)
- 2 cups milk chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with foil, leaving a 2-inch overhang on 2 sides. Spray the foil with nonstick spray.
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder and salt. In a separate large bowl, using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the butter and sugar until light, about 2 minutes. Beat in the eggs until well combined. Reduce the mixer speed to low and slowly beat the flour mixture into the butter mixture. Divide the dough in half. Press half of the dough into the pan until the dough is even and flat. Spread with marshmallow topping and sprinkle chocolate chips on top. Scatter the remaining dough over the top in clumps. Don't worry about covering the top with the dough. The marshmallow and chocolate chips should peek through.
- Bake until golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes. Place the pan on a wire rack to cool completely. Remove from the pan, peel off the foil and cut into bars. They're also a little easier to cut if they have been refrigerated for a while.
This is another winner, Brooks! What kid doesn’t love smores?! And when baked into one gorgeous gooey mess – well, it’s bound to be a crowd-pleaser.
I love S’mores, but these bars look even better! Nice job!
OMG, these look gooey and amazing! I’ve gotta try these, I love Smores.
Looks like another yummy recipe and no campfire needed. Love it and will try it this weekend!
Keep the the fun blog.

Awesomeness! These will be a perfect dessert after a lovely rice curry bowl! I don’t know why, I just think they would! 😀
What an awesome idea!! Must try it this weekend. Tx! 🙂
I think I might add some carmel with the chocolate chips…that woudl make this even gooier!
Looks way to yummy.. wow really looks good.
If you want to make the top a full crust, you can press plastic wrap in the bottom of another pan (that matches the one you are using) and press the crust into it. It’s so buttery, when you remove it from the pan, the crust clings to the plastic wrap. Then you can lay it over the marshmallow and chocolate layer. Yours look amazing!!!
Just found your blog! This recipe looks so delicious!
hey there –
You have done it again! These look terrific, and I have no doubt that my son will love them – thanks for sharing this yummy treat!
Thanks for sharing your yummy recipies with us, Recipe Boy! Can’t wait to try these. They look delicious! 🙂
Wonderful recipe! My niece picked it out to make and they were super yummy 🙂 I did half chocolate chips and then the other side with peanut butter chips. Super yumminess!
These were a HUGE success! Took them to a party and have lots of ladies at my church asking for the recipe. Good oooey gooeyness!
Wow these S’more bars look amazing. I will see if Charlie wants to make them. I’m afraid that I will gain 50 pounds though if she does make them.
Great Job!
These look so yummy! I am making them soon!
Loved watching you make these yummy S’mores Bars RecipeBoy. You’re not only a good cook already but a super foodie photographer in progress too.

Yum!!!!
made recipe yesterday.
soooooo…. good!
though it was almost impossible to put on the marshmellow creme.
🙂
I agree!!! The marshmallow creme was the hardest part! So hard to spread!
These are incredible!!!!
These are fantastic! If you like smores you will love these. Keep posting your great recipes!
Can you use marshmallows instead of fluff ?
Haven’t tried it with marshmallows!
A hit! Made these for a camping themed bridal shower and they are so good! Definitely making again. A few recommendations: 1) someone mentioned spreading the marshmallow creme was difficult. If you keep your hands wet you should be able to spread it with your fingers easily. 2) I plan to add a little extra marshmallow creme or mini’s next time. 3) the recipe doesn’t specify on ‘graham cracker crumbs’ – I did a full 2 cups of graham crackers ground in a food processor and it was perfect. 4) If you’re baking at high altitude bake at 15 degrees higher (365 deg F) for the exact 30 min. 5) Try a mixture of chocolate and caramel or peanut butter chips.
Can’t get the marshmallow Creme…..would it work with mini marshmallows?
We haven’t tried them using mini marshmallows, so not sure.
These are something special! I have gotten many compliments. Smore’s are my favorite treat, and this recipe does them justice!
I like to bake goodies ahead and freeze them – anyone made these and frozen them? Any issues?
We freeze things too, but I’m not sure how well these would freeze with the marshmallows on them.
These do look delicious! Can these be made the night before and still be good or prepared night before and store in fridge till next day to cook before a party?
Should be!
