Ingredients
Crust:
- 20 full graham crackers
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 12 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Fudge filling:
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
Marshmallow topping:
- 2 large egg whites
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light corn syrup
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Directions
For the crust:
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with foil.
-
Place the graham crackers, sugar, and salt in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until finely ground. Add the melted butter and pulse until the mixture is moistened. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking pan. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove to a cooling rack and let cool completely.
For the filling:
-
In a small saucepan set over medium-low heat, combine the chocolate chips and condensed milk. Heat until the mixture is melted, thick, and smooth, stirring constantly. Pour over graham cracker crust. Place in the refrigerator while making the marshmallow topping.
For the marshmallow topping:
-
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks form.
-
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan set over medium-high heat, combine the sugar, corn syrup, water, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil and continue to cook until a candy thermometer registers exactly 240°F. Immediately remove from heat. Turn the mixture on low speed and carefully and gradually drizzle the syrup into the egg whites. Increase speed to medium-high and beat until the mixture is thick and glossy and looks like marshmallow fluff, about 7 minutes longer. Add in the vanilla and beat until combined.
-
Spread the marshmallow topping evenly over the chocolate fudge layer. Use a kitchen torch to gently torch the marshmallow layer until lightly golden. Alternatively, place the pan under the broiler and broil for 1 minute, or until lightly golden.
-
Refrigerate the pan for at least 1 hour before cutting into squares and serving. The squares can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
My sincerest apology’s….I meant that previous review to be for someone else and something else. YOUR recipe is PERFECTION!!!!! I modified the fudge slightly. Added. Tablespoon of butter and I used vanilla and caramel extracts. I already make my own marshmallows, so I cut up a few and added it to the fudge layer.

Hi Nancie! Thank you for correcting your review! I did remove your previous review, as I didn’t want other readers to get confused 🙂 I’m SO glad to hear that you enjoyed these bars, and thanks so much for your comments! Happy holidays 🙂
“20 full graham crackers”…. do you have weight in grams or dimensions? I think sizes may vary.
Hi James! This is an older recipe that needs to be updated with proper metric measurements (it’s on our list!), but I just weighed some graham crackers in my own kitchen, and 20 full-size (2.5×5-inch) graham crackers = about 320 grams. I hope that helps! Happy baking 🙂
thx much! This is very hemlock since then I can use 320g of Graham cracker crumbs I already have.
Perfect! Let us know what you think of these bars once you have given them a try! 🙂
I made these for my cousin last year for Christmas and just realized I never let you know how good they were! Thank you! What a great idea! So nice to see something entirely different than the usual brownies or Rice Krispie squares, although those are very good.
Yay! So glad these were a hit, Jeanette!
Made these for a “Summer Cookie Box” for coworkers and ended up eating a leftover bar…these are insane. Every layer has something to offer – I’m over here trying to pick a favorite and can’t! And they are THICK. I was surprised they went into an 8×8 pan tbh. Should probably stick to 20 squares as I can’t imagine eating 1/9 of the pan in one sitting.
Amazing recipe!
YAY! I’m so happy to hear you loved these bars, Danielle!!
Hello there,
That’s an amazing article about S’mores Fudge Bars.
Keep your good job.
Hi there,
Thanks for your best article about smores fudge bars.

Hello Teesa,
That’s great article about smores fudge bar. Keep your good job.
Best recipe ever! They didnt last long……….
My crust turned out much thicker than the picture, I didnt have graham crackers only crumbs so I added to the melted butter. Would be nice to know exactly how many cups are 20 full full graham crackers?
Loved the fudge and fluff topping and the recipe was so easy, but the bottom layer was so crumbly that it just fell apart
Could I just use marshmallow creme for the topping?
This looks so good! What a fun way to put all these classic flavors in one place!
These look ravishing, and I’m going to try out the formula soon. Be that as it may, a large portion of the gear the formula says is required, I don’t really have. In any case, I’ve made Marshmallows previously and they ended up great, so I don’t think a Candy Thermometer is significant.
Additionally, the wafers I’m certain you can granulate by hand, no?
I’m simply attempting to assist others who don’t have the gear as it tends to be very costly to purchase and may put individuals of attempting to make this!!
Try not to be put off!!
The marshmallow topping is the cherry on the top for this dish. Also I was wondering can I use chocolate as a topping ? Let me know

I am a regular reader of your blog. I love smores fudge bar because it is amazing in taste.
Chocolate looks really delicious and nice.
I will try to try it for my family.
This is the most beautiful thing I have seen all day. Thank you.
Say what now?! S’mores fudge !! :O I need this now.
This is the most beautiful thing I have seen all day. Thank you.
Another classy desert. Awesome! I loved baking, and I loved to cook this kind of dish. I can sell it or prepare to my occasions. I can also give this as a souvenir or snack. Helpful and useful recipe. Thanks
These look absolutely amazing. I am pinning these smores fudge bars to try soon. THey look so satisfying.
I’d like to make these in advance for a wedding cookie bar. Can the crust and chocolate layer be made and frozen then day before add the marshmellow layer?
Yummy. One of the best s’mores recipes I’ve seen. Its really nice.
I cheated on my diet for this, worth it.
your killing me here.. these look wickedly delicious, i am so craving one right now! saving this recipe.. love it!
These look so beautiful and marvelous. Stunning pictures as always. I can only imagine how delicious they taste.
I made these for the family this weekend and they were a major hit! This was my first time making marshmallow – thank you for the detailed steps and pictures. Very helpful! I WILL be making these again, and again. Thanks again!
I am intimidated to make the marshmallow topping. Can you substitute a jar of marshmallow fluff ? Tx!
I have never seen this kind of desert before, and it looks absolutely delicious! Ingenious idea.
Man does that look good! I just love anything S’mores flavored.
Can I double the recipe into a 9 x 13 pan?
A 9×13 pan is not quite double an 8×8 pan… 8×8 is 64 square inches and 9×13 is 117 square inches.
Thus… you could do i t but the layers will be roughly 10% thicker… I am sure it is fine or you can same 10% of each layer and make an individual one 🙂
Will never be able to look at normal s’mores again. This bar was freaking awesomely delicious.
Was thinking of using marshmallow fluff but on second thought I think I’ll go with the topping. Looks delicious. Thanks Tessa.
These s’mores fudge bars looks so zesty and tasty! Absolutely love your creative idea! Thanks for sharing!
Can I use coconut oil instead of butter for the crust?
