Introduction

S’mores Crack is a delightful twist on the classic campfire treat, combining a crispy graham cracker base with rich toffee, melted chocolate, and toasted marshmallows. This easy-to-make dessert is perfect for sharing and sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.

Ingredients

10 full-size graham crackers
1 cup (2 sticks) salted butter
1 cup packed light brown sugar
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 cups mini marshmallows

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9×13-inch baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil, making sure it covers the sides for easy cleanup.
Step 2: Arrange the graham crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, breaking them as needed to cover the entire bottom evenly.
Step 3: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and brown sugar together, stirring constantly until the mixture reaches a rolling boil.
Step 4: Continue cooking for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens slightly and turns a rich caramel color.
Step 5: Carefully pour the hot toffee mixture over the graham crackers and spread it evenly with a spatula to cover them completely.
Step 6: Bake in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the toffee layer is bubbling.
Step 7: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the hot toffee.
Step 8: Let the chocolate sit for 1-2 minutes to melt, then spread it into an even layer with a spatula.
Step 9: Sprinkle the mini marshmallows evenly over the melted chocolate layer.
Step 10: Set the oven to broil and return the baking sheet to the oven for 1-2 minutes, watching closely until the marshmallows are golden and toasted. Be careful not to burn them.
Step 11: Remove from the oven and let the S’mores Crack cool completely in the pan before cutting and serving.

Tips & Variations

For a nutty twist, sprinkle chopped toasted nuts like pecans or walnuts over the melted chocolate before adding marshmallows.
Use dark chocolate chips for a richer, slightly bittersweet flavor.
To make cleanup easier, ensure the baking sheet is well-lined with foil or parchment paper to catch drips.
Try adding a pinch of sea salt on top before broiling to enhance the caramel and chocolate flavors.

Storage

Store the cooled S’mores Crack in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, keep it covered in the refrigerator for up to a week. To reheat, warm briefly in a low oven to soften the chocolate and marshmallows without burning them.

FAQs

Can I use unsalted butter instead of salted butter?
