Tips & Variations

  • For a different chocolate flavor, use a mix of milk, dark, or white chocolate chips.
  • Add chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans for extra crunch in the crust or topping.
  • Try using flavored marshmallows, such as vanilla or strawberry, to give a unique twist.
  • If you don’t have graham cracker crumbs, crushing digestive biscuits or vanilla wafers works well as a substitute.

Storage

Store the s’more bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Before serving, you can let them come to room temperature for a few minutes or warm them briefly in the microwave for a softer texture.
