No-Bake S’mores Treats Recipe

These No-Bake S’mores Treats give you all the flavor and nostalgia of a classic campfire dessert without striking a match. We’re talking gooey marshmallows, rich chocolate, and crunchy graham crackers—but in a format that takes less than 15 minutes to make and doesn’t heat up your kitchen.

Perfect for summer, busy weeknights, or spontaneous dessert cravings, this recipe channels all the things you love about s’mores into simple bars you can chill and slice. No campfire, no oven, no problem. It’s all done in a single saucepan and a single pan.

This isn’t just a shortcut—it’s an upgrade. The marshmallows are melted down with butter to create a soft, sticky base. Crushed graham crackers give it structure and crunch. Then comes the best part: generous chunks of semi-sweet chocolate folded in at the end so they melt just slightly, creating that perfect blend of bite and goo.

The final bars are chewy, melty, crisp-edged, and sweet—all the things you want in a dessert that reminds you of being a kid again. They’re also wildly portable and perfect for parties, school treats, or stashing in the fridge for when you need a quick fix.

S’mores are one of those universally loved treats. This recipe makes them even more accessible. No fire pit required, no burnt marshmallows, no mess. Just flavor, texture, and instant gratification.

You don’t need to be a baker to make these. If you can melt butter and stir, you can make this recipe. It’s a great one to make with kids or for last-minute gatherings when you want to impress without the stress.

Want to switch it up? You can easily add crushed pretzels for a salty kick, drizzle with extra chocolate, or stir in peanut butter for a nutty twist. But honestly, the original is hard to beat.

This recipe is a reminder that sometimes the simplest things are the most satisfying. You get big pay-off with minimal effort, and that’s what makes it a keeper.

It stores beautifully in the fridge and even better in the freezer. Just let it come back to room temp before serving to get the perfect texture. Expect them to disappear fast.

The key is not to overmix the chocolate. You want those pockets of melty goodness spread throughout. Every bite should feel like it’s straight from the fire.

These treats are sweet, but not overwhelming. The graham crackers and chocolate balance out the marshmallow, keeping it all from becoming cloying.

From backyard hangouts to lunchbox surprises, these bars bring smiles and memories. They’re like summer in bar form—crunchy, gooey, chocolatey, and fun.

So skip the firewood. You can get the full s’mores experience right from your kitchen counter.
