Ingredients for S’mores Sandwiches

You’ll need just a few simple ingredients to get started:

Graham crackers: The classic foundation of any s’more.
Marshmallows: Large, fluffy marshmallows work best, but you can use mini marshmallows if that’s what you have.
Chocolate bars: Use your favorite type of chocolate—milk, dark, or even white chocolate can work here.

This is the classic trio, but feel free to get creative and add in some extras. Nut butter, caramel, or even a fruit spread can take these sandwiches to the next level!

How to Make S’mores Sandwiches

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). While the oven is heating, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Assemble the sandwiches: Break graham crackers into squares (or use whole ones, depending on how big you want your sandwiches). Place a piece of chocolate on one graham cracker square, then top it with a marshmallow. Place another graham cracker on top, pressing lightly to form a sandwich.
Bake: Arrange the sandwiches on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the marshmallows begin to puff up and the chocolate melts.
Cool and serve: Remove the sandwiches from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. You want the chocolate to set slightly, but the marshmallows should still be gooey.

Kitchen Equipment You’ll Need

Baking sheet: For baking the sandwiches.
Parchment paper: To prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
Oven: You don’t need a fancy setup for these—just a simple oven will do.
Spatula: For carefully removing the sandwiches from the baking sheet.

Tips and Shortcuts

Microwave Option: Don’t want to wait for the oven to preheat? You can also microwave your s’mores sandwiches. Simply assemble them as instructed, place them on a microwave-safe plate, and heat for 10-15 seconds. The marshmallow will puff up quickly, so keep an eye on it.
Use a Toaster Oven: If you have a toaster oven, this is a great option for small batches. It heats up faster than a regular oven and gives the same melty result.
No Parchment Paper? No Problem: If you don’t have parchment paper, you can use aluminum foil, though you’ll want to spray it lightly with cooking spray to avoid sticking.

Recipe Swaps and Variations

Change the chocolate: While traditional milk chocolate is a favorite, feel free to switch it up with dark chocolate for a richer taste or white chocolate for something sweeter. You can also experiment with flavored chocolate bars like mint or caramel-filled.
Add peanut butter: For a salty-sweet combo, spread a little peanut butter on the graham crackers before adding the chocolate and marshmallow.
Make it gluten-free: Use gluten-free graham crackers to accommodate those with gluten sensitivities.
Vegan-friendly option: Substitute regular marshmallows and chocolate with vegan alternatives. Many stores now carry vegan marshmallows and dairy-free chocolate bars.

How to Store S’mores Sandwiches

While s’mores sandwiches are best enjoyed fresh, you can store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. Just keep in mind that the marshmallow and chocolate may harden slightly as they cool. To reheat, pop them in the microwave for about 10 seconds to bring back that gooey texture.

Food Pairings

If you’re looking for something to pair with your s’mores sandwiches, a cold glass of milk is always a classic choice. For a more grown-up twist, serve them alongside a hot cup of coffee or even a rich dessert wine like port or sherry. The sweetness of the s’mores complements the deep flavors of these beverages perfectly.
