Tips & Variations

• Substitute fresh raspberries with strawberries or blueberries for a different fruity twist.
• Use milk or white chocolate bars instead of dark chocolate for a sweeter flavor.
• For extra crunch, add chopped nuts like almonds or hazelnuts to the graham cracker base or sprinkle over the top.
• Make it dairy-free by using vegan butter and dairy-free chocolate alternatives.

Storage

Store the s’mores bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Allow them to come to room temperature before serving for the best texture. You can gently warm them briefly in a microwave if you prefer melted chocolate and gooey marshmallow again.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I make these bars ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the bars up to the broiling step and refrigerate or freeze them. Broil the marshmallow topping just before serving for the freshest taste and texture.

What can I use instead of marshmallow creme?

You can use mini marshmallows spread on top instead. Toast them under the broiler just as you would with the creme for a similar effect.

• 5 Tablespoons Butter, melted
• 1/2 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 1 & 1/2 Cups Graham Crackers, crushed

Toppings

• 2 Dark Chocolate Bars
• 1/2 Cup Nutella
• 6 Ounces Fresh Raspberries, halved
• 13 Ounces Marshmallow Creme

Instructions

1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line an 11×7-inch baking dish with parchment paper to prevent sticking and allow easy removal of bars.
2. Mix Base Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons white sugar, and 5 tablespoons melted butter until smooth and well incorporated.
3. Add Vanilla Extract: Blend in 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract to the sugar and butter mixture to enhance the flavor.
4. Incorporate Graham Crackers: Stir in 1 and 1/2 cups crushed graham crackers thoroughly, forming a crumbly dough for the base.
5. Create the Base Layer: Pour the graham cracker mixture into your prepared baking dish and firmly pat it down to form an even crust layer.
6. Add Chocolate Bars: Place two dark chocolate bars evenly on top of the graham cracker base, covering the surface.
7. Bake the Base: Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes to melt the chocolate and set the base slightly.
8. Swirl Nutella: Remove from oven and use a spatula to spread the melted chocolate evenly. Drizzle 1/2 cup Nutella over the top and use a toothpick to swirl it into the melted chocolate for a marbled effect.
9. Add Raspberries: Evenly distribute the halved fresh raspberries over the Nutella and chocolate layer to add freshness and a tart counterpoint.
10. Set the Chocolate: Place the baking dish in the freezer for about 20 minutes until the chocolate and Nutella layer is firm and set.
11. Top with Marshmallow Creme: Spread the 13 ounces of marshmallow creme evenly over the set chocolate and raspberry layer.
12. Broil for Finish: Broil the bars in the oven for 2 to 3 minutes, watching closely to achieve a golden, toasted marshmallow topping without burning.
13. Cool and Serve: Let the bars cool completely at room temperature before slicing and serving to enjoy the perfect gooey and crunchy texture.

Notes

• Ensure to watch the marshmallow creme closely while broiling to prevent burning as it can caramelize quickly.
• If you prefer a firmer base, consider pressing the graham cracker crust more firmly before baking.
• These bars can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• For a nut-free version, substitute Nutella with a chocolate spread without nuts or additional melted chocolate.
