S’mores Fudge Bars Are Treat All Year Long!

I am a HUGE smores fan! And in all honesty, I fancy myself a bit of a smores connoisseur…which, in fact, is my birthright. Did I tell you I was born on National Smores Day? Yep. It’s in my DNA. And of course, I have so many smores recipes here on my site, like S’mores Cheesecake!

And since I try and get my smores fix any which way, I created these Smores Fudge Bars that are all the flavors we love in smores, but OH SO MUCH MORE! You have a rich, silky fudge filling, on top of a thick graham cracker crust, all topped with Homemade Marshmallow Fluff, which is so dreamy!

S'mores Fudge Bars is a fudge recipe and smores recipe all in one!

What Are S’mores?

Let’s start at the beginning, in case you aren’t familiar with s’mores. Can you believe I have met people who have never had s’mores? I don’t know why this is so mind boggling to me, but it sure is. I suppose if you didn’t grow up in the US, or Canada it hasn’t always been a universal treat.

S’mores are campfire treats that generally consist of a toasted marshmallow and a piece of chocolate  sandwiched between two graham crackers. Of course I take tons of liberty when making s’mores by the fire. My favorite combo is two Ritz crackers, a peanut butter cup and a toasted marshmallow. It’s salty/sweet perfection! BUT in keeping with tradition, these S’mores Fudge Bars are all the classic flavors.

Smores Fudge BarsHow to Make S’mores Fudge Bars

For these s’mores fudge bars, the steps are all easy. You just have three different layers to create!

  • First you make your graham cracker crust, which is a simple graham cracker crust recipe, just graham crackers, butter, sugar, and salt. You bake that up until it’s lightly golden.
  • Next up make your chocolate fudge filling, which only has two ingredients, milk chocolate and sweetened condensed milk. You melt sweetened condensed milk and milk chocolate  together to form a thick, but pourable chocolate fudge. Spread this on top of the crust!

Next you make your homemade marshmallow fluff! Once you make this homemade, you will never buy the store-bought again!

  • You just beat egg whites and some cream of tartar together until soft peaks form.
  • Next, make a sugar syrup in a saucepan with corn syrup, sugar, and water. You will need a candy thermometer here to make sure it comes up to 240°F. This guarantees the thickness, and firmness of the fluff.
  • In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, you slowly pour the syrup into the egg whites, while mixing. Once it’s all added, beat that for 7-8 minutes until it’s thick and glossy!
  • This recipe makes a lot, and you can use it all on your fudge bars, or spread a thinner layer on top and save the rest!

How to make Smores Fudge Bars

  • Spread the marshmallow fluff on the chocolate with an off-set spatula and then pop it under the broiler, just for about a minute until it gets a little brown on top…
  • Please watch closely as it broils, because it can go from lightly toasted to burnt QUICKLY!

  1. DO NOT USE BROILER if you have an old oven that is unpredictable. Almost had a oven fire! Got lucky and only the marshmellow layer burst to flame!

  2. These are my go-to for Summer treats, and to take to neighbors. They are worth every bit of time and mess involved. Mine come out perfectly every time. If you are a S’mores lover, these are for you!!!






  3. Mine turned out just okay. I think the crust needs more butter. Mine was a crumbly mess and didn’t stick together. The fudge layer was stiff and hard to spread. The marshmallow layer didn’t get stiff enough so when I cut them into squares they just oozed everywhere. My kids loved them but they were a little too sweet for me and I’m a sugaraholic! Haha!
