Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Tips & Variations

  • For extra gooey marshmallows, broil the bars for 1-2 minutes at the end of baking, watching closely to avoid burning.
  • Try using dark or white chocolate chips to change up the flavor profile.
  • Add chopped nuts or a sprinkle of sea salt on top before baking for added texture and taste.

Storage

Store s’more bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. For best texture, reheat briefly in the microwave to soften the marshmallows before serving.

How to Serve

Several square s'mores bars are arranged closely on a white marbled surface. Each bar shows three clear layers: a crumbly, golden brown graham cracker crust at the bottom; a dense, dark chocolate layer in the middle; and a top layer of lightly toasted, golden white marshmallows that are puffed and slightly browned on top. Loose chocolate chips and white marshmallows are scattered lightly around the bars, adding texture and color contrasts. The bars’ edges reveal the distinct separation of the layers in a neat, clean cut. The photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7
