How To Make Golden Grahams S’mores Bars
1. Prep: It is SO important to prep the pan and ingredients BEFORE making the recipe because you’ll want to work fast for best results. Begin by lining a 13×9-inch pan with aluminum foil, spray it with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
2. Melt: Melt the butter and marshmallows in a heavy-bottomed pot on the stovetop over medium heat until completely melted.
3. Mix: Remove from heat and stir in vanilla, Golden Grahams, and extra marshmallows with a rubber spatula.
4. Top: Add mini chocolate chips and Mallow Bits over the top of the bars and gently press them in.
5. Set: Allow the bars to set for about 1 1/2 hours in the pan.
6. Slice: Once the bars have set, cut them into bars.
7. Dip: Add the melting wafers to a small bowl and melt in the microwave and dip the bottoms of the bars in the chocolate and place on the wax paper to set.
Rebecca’s Tips
Chocolate – Dark, semi-sweet, or milk chocolate can be used, whichever your tastebuds prefer. You can leave it off, but why?
Cooking Spray – As with any no-bake treat recipe involving marshmallow, this stuff will be your best friend, so make sure to use it!
Extra Marshmallows – I highly recommend not skipping the extra cups of marshmallows called for in the recipe, it helps add even more chewiness for the bars.
Squares – If you don’t want bars, you can definitely cut these into squares.
Size – While I call for a 9×13-inch baking dish, you can use a smaller one if you want slightly thicker bars.
Storage Instructions
To Enjoy Now: Honestly, they’re not likely to last long because they are so addictive. But if you do have some leftover, they can be stored in an air-tight container at room temperature for 5 to 7 days. I don’t recommend storing them in the refrigerator because it makes them hard.
To Enjoy Later: While I think these are best fresh, they can be frozen. After preparing and cutting and allowing the chocolate to completely harden, place them in a larger freezer bag and squeeze out any excess air. Freeze for up to 6 weeks.
Even though this is a simple recipe with only a handful of ingredients, it’s very important that you don’t skip on a couple of crucial things about the recipe.

Just perfect for summer!
Wow. I love the look of these and a quick look through the recipe tells me my kids will have fun putting them together. Genius to dip the bottoms into chocolate rather than spread it across the top – looks very professional. Golden Grahams are hard to find near me (UK) but I’m sure I can find a suitable alternative (open to ideas if you know).
