S’mores without the campfire! S’Mores Graham Cracker Toffee features all the yumminess of the classic campfire treat and it can be made in just 15 minutes.
S’mores Graham Cracker Toffee
Back to my s’more cravings. (If you missed the first round, you can find my first s’mores treat here.) Perhaps three batches of these in one week is a bit much. But who’s counting? Not me!
Look at all that gooey goodness! I think I can convince you to make them with pictures alone.
The salty-sweet crunchiness Graham Cracker Toffee topped with the awesomeness of warm toasted marshmallows makes for a delicious treat. Served after dinner with a cup of coffee or as a snack. You really can’t go wrong.
S’mores are a weakness of mine and all of the s’mores recipes on this site should tell you that. However, I am super picky about my toasted marshmallows.
Broiling the marshmallows on this S’mores Graham Cracker Toffee gives me the chance to get the perfect toastiness and golden brown color.
Yes, I am that person crouched by my oven with the door cracked waiting for the perfect moment to pull out the pan.
Watch closely because in a hot oven 30-60 seconds goes fast when toasting mini marshmallows.
I realize these directions look lengthy, but I PROMISE you they really aren’t complicated. I simply wanted to be clear and make it as easy to follow as possible.
This whole recipe can be made from start to finish with less than 10 minutes hands-on effort.
S’mores are best served immediately. However, if there are leftovers, they can be stored in an airtight container at cool room temperature or in the refrigerator. I recommend reheating the leftovers in the microwave for a few seconds before eating.
Graham Cracker S’mores
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the graham crackers in a row in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Combine the butter and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, reduce to medium heat and simmer for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture comes together and the color deepens.
- Pour over the graham crackers and use a spatula to spread the mixture across each cracker if needed.
- Bake for 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and immediately scatter the chocolate chips evenly over the warm crackers. Let the chips sit for a couple of minutes and then use a spatula to spread the melted chocolate across the crackers.
- Cool at room temperature or in the refrigerator. When the chocolate has hardened, cut with a sharp knife or break the toffee into pieces.
- Preheat the oven to BROIL. Top the pieces with marshmallows. Place under the broiler for 30-60 seconds, until the marshmallows are golden brown. Watch very closely to avoid burning.

These look absolutely delicious! I love smores, but it’s too hot in FL to make them outside lots of the year. So… this looks like a great alternative. I’d be thrilled if you’d link up at this week’s Off the Hook!
