S’mores Bars Recipe

My dear, sweet husband is always wanting to go camping.  Don’t get me wrong, I love a little over-nighter in a tent but that is about as wild as it got for us growing up in a family of all girls.

He was quite sad when I broke the news to him that my very pregnant body, at the time, just couldn’t handle sleeping on the ground and dealing with a toddler in a tent.

While he was at work, my little buddy and I decided to set up an indoor campsite to surprise dad when he got home.  He may not have been as excited as he would have been if we had really camped, but these s’mores bars sure eased his pain.

I enjoyed one too many of these yummy treats, slept in my own bed and listened to my boys laugh out in the living room.  That is my kind of camping!

We may never go back to S’mores over the campfire; unless of course we are camping. These S’mores bars are ready in no time, and maybe even yummier!

How long do these stay fresh?

If you are lucky enough to have any S’mores Bars left over, they will stay fresh for a few days in an airtight container.

We have made them ahead of time and stuck them in the freezer. So they freeze really well. Be sure you use a freezer bag or air tight freezer container to preserve freshness.

These S'mores Bars are so easy to make. Just a few ingredients and you have an amazing dessert everyone will love.
Prep Time 10 mins
Cook Time 35 mins
Total Time 45 mins
Print Pin

Ingredients

  • ½ cup butter softened to room temperature
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1⅓ cups flour
  • ¾ cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 3 King Size Hershey Milk Chocolate Bars 3 (2.6ounce) bars
  • 7 ounces marshmallow creme 1 container

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.  Grease an 8-inch square baking pan.
  • In a large bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and sugar until light and fluffy. 
  • Beat in egg and vanilla. 
  • In a small bowl, whisk together flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder and salt. 
  • Add to butter mixture and mix at a low speed until combined.
  • Divide dough in half and press half of dough into an even layer on the bottom of the prepared pan. We found it works best to use our fingers. 
  • Place chocolate bars over dough (3 king-sized Hershey bars should fit perfectly side by side, but break the chocolate if necessary to get it to fit in a single layer no more than 1/4 inch thick). 
  • Spread marshmallow creme over chocolate layer. 
  • Place remaining dough in a single layer on top of the marshmallow (most easily achieved by flattening the dough into small, flat shingles and laying them together).
  • Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until a light golden brown.
  • Cool completely before cutting into bars.

Notes

  • We have made them ahead of time and stuck them in the freezer. So they freeze really well. Be sure you use a freezer bag or air tight freezer container to preserve freshness.

    Awh, what a cute improvisational idea for camping--my kind of camping for sure! I can't handle the bugs and uneven ground and all the work (yes, I'm lazy!) but my boyfriend loves it. Maybe one day I'll pitch a fort in the living room and make these bars for him and I so we can snuggle and watch movies... and avoid bug bites! Great idea!

    Can you use regular marshmallows if you don't have marshmallow creme? If so, Would it be better to melt the marshmallows with some butter first?

      Hi!

      I think you could just sprinkle on the marshmallows rather than using the creme!

    These were amazing!!!!! VERY sweet tho. I will probably cut back on the sugar next time I make them. The marshmallow fluff if very sweet, combined with the milk chocolate, it's a sugar overload. Amazing taste tho. Just like real s'mores.

      After reading reviews, I used a layer of semi-sweet chocolate chips instead of sweet chocolate to cut back on some of the richness; I used mini-marshmallows instead of the cream (that's what I had in the cabinet); and I rolled the top crust (or 2nd half of the cookie dough) between two sheets of wax paper to the size of the pan and treated it like a pie crust (rolling the flattened dough over a rolling pin and unrolling it over the pan, then poked a few holes in it). I haven't tried the recipe with the sweet chocolate and marshmallow cream, but these turned out really good.

        The first batch I made disappeared quickly and we loved them. Second time around I used the marshmallow cream... they were too sweet for our family. So, I'm back to semi-sweet chocolate chips and a layer of mini-marshmallows. However, the graham cracker cookie recipe is perfect-- we really like this recipe. Thank you!

    This is so good! I have made it 4 times now! I like to double the recipe and take one to a neighbor. what works best for me is flattening out the dough with me hands for the top layer. Thanks for sharing your recipes.

    Can I just use marshmallows if I don’t have marshmallow cream? Should I melt them or just put them it there?

      I think you could just add marshmallows. I did find this on the internet: Substitute for Marshmallow Creme Heat 16 large or 160 miniature marshmallows + 2 teaspoons of corn syrup in the top of a double boiler and stir until the mixture is smooth.

    Can you use a 9x13 dish for this recipe?

      If you use a 9 x 13 inch pan for this recipe, it wouldn't fully cover the pan. You would probably want to 1 1/2 or double the recipe to completely cover a 9 x 13 inch pan.
