Ingredients
Instructions
- Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
- Add marshmallows and stir constantly until melted.
- Stir in broken graham cracker pieces.
- Pour mixture into a 13 x 9-inch buttered dish and sprinkle with chocolate chips.
- Press down with waxed paper to flatten.
- Refrigerate for 20 minutes before cutting into pieces.
Tips & Substitutions
To enhance the flavor, consider adding a pinch of sea salt to the melted marshmallow mixture for a sweet-salty contrast. If you want a different flavor, try using butterscotch chips or white chocolate instead of semi-sweet chocolate chips. For a gluten-free option, use gluten-free graham crackers. Remember to work quickly when mixing in the graham crackers, as the mixture will thicken as it cools.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make these S'Mores Snack Treats ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare these treats a day in advance. Just make sure to store them in an airtight container after they've cooled completely. This allows the flavors to meld and makes them even more delicious when served the next day.
What can I use instead of graham crackers?
If you don't have graham crackers, you can substitute with crushed cookies like Digestives or vanilla wafers. This will give a different texture and flavor, but it will still work well in this recipe.
How can I make these treats more chocolatey?
For a more chocolatey flavor, you can double the amount of chocolate chips sprinkled on top or even mix in some chocolate syrup with the marshmallows. Experimenting with different types of chocolate, like dark chocolate or even caramel swirls, can also enhance the richness.
