Nothing compares to campfire s’mores. I’ll be the first to tell you that. Warm, gooey, and sweet. Eaten outside around a fire. But sometimes, that’s just not possible. I’m telling you, this is the next best thing. A go-to alternative for when you want the campfire feel but are missing the open flame.

I was craving s’mores (no surprise there) and it was a beautiful spring night. We went out and bought all the supplies for s’mores and prepared the fire pit. We grilled dinner, ate outside, and had a beautiful start to the evening. Then I went to try and start the fire and the wind immediately picked up. So much so that I could not get the fire to start, so time for plan B – these soft, gooey, chocolate-y s’mores bars.

My s’mores craving was fully satisfied, we had a dessert to bring to a party the next day, and I was able to snack on these tasty things for the next few days. A total win in my book.

It starts with a crunchy layer of graham cracker pieces. Then a thick cookie dough layer filled with mini marshmallows and chocolate chips. Then a extra chocolate and marshmallows on top to make it oh-so pretty.
