Ingredients
- 16graham crackers, or other cookies or crackers
- 4ounces dark or milk chocolate bars, cut into large pieces
- 8large marshmallows
Preparation
- Step 1
Place an oven rack 4 inches away from the broiling element. Heat broiler. Line a baking sheet with foil.
- Step 2
Place graham crackers on the prepared baking sheet, spreading them out. Top half with a piece of chocolate and 1 marshmallow.
- Step 3
Broil until the marshmallows begin to singe on top and the chocolate melts, 1 to 3 minutes depending on your broiler; watch them carefully so they don’t burn (unless you like them blackened, in which case let them broil until they look perfect to you).
- Step 4
Remove from oven and top with remaining graham crackers, pressing down to smush the marshmallows. Serve immediately.

What the heck??? Why oh why have I never done this? I always thought it had to be done with a bonfire, I’m so happy! This is perfect, thank you Melissa!
We've been making oven s'mores for over 20 years. Here are some tips: 1) If you have a toaster oven, use it. It's easier to do there. 2) Put the marshmallows on foil sprayed with Pam. Why? The graham cracker they rest on will get burnt. Another option is to replace the bottom graham cracker with a fresh one (hence do the chocolate after. Thou shall not waste good chocolate.) 3) Consider using Peeps instead of regular marshmallows. The sugar on the outside caramelizes making them extra yummy.
Just tried to make these. A word of advice: Put the rack as low as possible and watch them like a hawk. I put mine on the highest rack and was watching them every few seconds. They caught fire and I had a devil of a time getting the fire out and getting the pan out so my house wouldn’t burn down.
Thank goodness I read the comments before trying this! Cautiously, I dropped my oven rack down one more notch and set my timer for 30 seconds. Halfway through (about 15 seconds), I just HAD to look and the marshmallows were already smoking! I broiled them for about 8 more seconds and then took them out of the oven. (About 25 seconds total cooking time). Marshmallow were melted, chocolate was melted. Everything good to go. Now I'll just wait for my blood pressure to drop back to normal.
1-3 minutes on the highest rack is a no go. As other readers have said, wasted a pan of perfectly good ingredients when this caught fire even watching very closely. Will stick to the microwave on this one!
simply perfection!
