These S’mores Are Made in the Oven!

Sweet and salty s’mores is probably the easiest and yummiest s’mores combination I’ve ever put into my mouth!

Don’t believe me?

Try them yourself!

Since I’m a busy mom with a house full of kids and teens, I like to make this quick snack when we build forts or decide to have an impromptu camping adventure at home!

No need to build a fire.

No need to grab hangers for a marshmallow roast.

All I need is an oven, crackers, marshmallows and chocolate.

And you can always add MORE chocolate (white chocolate, dark chocolate…any chocolate you like!)

Oooh!

And if you want to be crazy adventurous, add a half a teaspoon of peanut butter to the top of each piece of chocolate.

But only try that on crazy, crazy days…;0)

These are also fun to put together for a last minute party or family fun night!

We actually made this fun treat most recently to celebrate an impromptu “Kid’s Day.”

s'mores made with Ritz crackers

My hubby and I just wanted to show the kids a little extra attention and love.

The kids woke up to cookies and milk for breakfast, s’mores and a tent around mid-morning, take-out for lunch, hot cocoa and board games in the afternoon—and very few chores.

It felt great to give the kids a special day “just because.”

  4. Are you only using 1/2 marshmallow per S’more? If so, and the recipe makes 20 S’mores, wouldn’t it only call for 10 marshmallows, cut in half?

    1. Oh, well the extras are for you to give to your kids to hold them over while you bake the s’mores…:0) Just kidding! No, I will edit the recipe. I originally wanted to make more s’mores and did not change the amount of marshmallows—feeble-minded I guess. Thanks for pointing it out!

  5. I have done the ritz cracker with a rolo smashed between. In that recipe you put down a layer of ritz and top with the rolo. When they come out you add the top ritz as you smash the soft rolo inbetween. Would probably work with this recipe to and that way you don’t have to worry about the top cracker sliding off. Can’t wait to try these!

  6. Do you have to eat them right away? I would like to make these for a party, but don’t want them to get soggy.

    1. I would recommend eating them right away. I have never kept them for later. one time I did with another ritz recipe and they were soggy. It was for a party too.
