S’mores Whoopie Pies are 2 favorite sweet treats in one! It’s a graham soft cookie, filled with Marshmallow Buttercream and topped with melted chocolate. You will LOVE these!
I am a huge fan of turning pretty much every dessert into a S’mores version. I feel like I was born to do that actually, because my birthday is August 10th…
What does that mean?
Well, August 10th is NATIONAL S’MORES DAY!
So yeah. I’ve made S’mores Brownies, S’mores Cheesecake, S’mores in a Jar, S’mores Strawberries, Chocolate Chip Cookie Peanut Butter S’mores Bars…I could keep going and going…OR you could check out my S’mores Recipe Round Up.
Here’s what you do…
Crush some graham crackers up into a fine dust. You can use a rolling pin to smash them, or a blender or food processor.
You’ll need a cup and a half, which is about 9 full crackers smushed.
Mix up your batter.
It will look like this…
Drop the batter by the tablespoon onto a lined baking sheet.
They will look like this when they are all baked up…
Next you have to make them happen. Flip half of them over…
Then melt up your milk chocolate bars and give one side of your sandwich a schmear.
Don’t neglect the other side. Cover him with some marshmallow buttercream.
That’s it! Squish those two lovebirds together and you’ll get this…
Isn’t she gorgeous?

Number 1 I love everything s’more so you’re making this the best birthday week ever! Number 2 we just did a biology project in my lab at ASU and poop is EVERYWHERE 🙁 sorry If that just ruined your life.
You are one of the few blogs I don’t skim, but actually read through. cause you are just hi-fricken-larous
So is it horrible that when I got to the eel part I got the song “Electric slide” stuck in my head. Do do do do do do do It’s electric…
Eels freak me out and I avoid going into any body of water where there are things that might want to bite me. I cringe whenever I watch The Princess Bride and she gets brushed in the water by the shreaking eels.
I’m so making these for our office afternoon treat cart.
i am literally trying to lick the screen!
I for one love your posts, and I bought a whoopie pan last year, so I am going to try these wonderfully delicious whoopie pies. Now you made me hungry to try these. And to try out my new pan again, I only used it one time, and now I am going for 2x’s, thank you for the post on this flavor of whoopi pies. Love it…

You may be able to power your house with your finger, but we both know I am the Golden Child (TM). Look for the trilogy soon. I’ll be eating all of your awesome recipes that I make as I create the masterpiece.
