From my own experience, s’mores are more than a snack; they is an emotional camping favorite because the graham crackers feel crunchy and sweet, baked with brown sugar toffee, topped onto warm chocolate chips and mini marshmallows, where each marshmallow gets toasted over an open flame until it turns melted and gooey.
Creating a gentle crack in texture that features comfort for the soul, made slowly then enjoyed calmly, with memories built around fire and food.

Making graham crackers, marshmallows, and chocolate treats at home is easy and fun. Here’s how you can do it:
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and line a jelly roll pan with foil.

- Switch the oven to broiler mode and watch closely to toast the marshmallows, about 15-30 seconds, ensuring they don’t burn.
- Let it cool, then break it into bite-sized pieces.
This recipe is chewy, crunchy, and addictive—just like a campfire treat! Perfect for any occasion and a great way to enjoy graham crackers, marshmallows, and chocolate at home.
Pro Tips
- Line your jelly roll pan with foil to prevent sticking. This makes it easier to lift and break the s’mores crack into pieces.
- Arrange your 12 sheets of graham cracker so they fit well.
- For the toffee, follow the exact time measurements to avoid it being too soft or too hard to bite.
If you decide to broil the marshmallow tops:
- Watch closely, as they can go from golden to burnt in seconds.
- If you’re in a hurry, skip broiling and use dried marshmallows for a less chewy texture.
Once your toffee cools and hardened:
- Pop it in the fridge for a faster cool-down, or let it naturally reach the perfect consistency.
- These steps will help you achieve a crispy and sweet treat.
