Easy S’mores Clusters Recipe

Introduction

S’mores clusters are a fun and easy twist on the classic campfire treat. They combine melted chocolate, marshmallows, and graham crackers for a bite-sized delight that’s perfect for parties or an everyday sweet snack.

The image shows small clusters of a dessert made with milk chocolate coating over irregularly shaped oat cereal pieces, forming chunky and uneven mounds. Each cluster is mainly brown due to the smooth, shiny chocolate that covers the textured, light tan cereal beneath. Some golden oat flakes peek out from the edges, adding a rough, flaky texture. A few broken cereal pieces, crispy and light tan, are scattered around the clusters on a white plate. The plate sits on a surface with a white marbled texture in soft lighting, emphasizing the glossy chocolate and crumbly cereal pieces. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

  • 2 cups milk chocolate chips (or dark chocolate chips; for vegan use non-dairy chocolate chips or chopped chocolate bar)

  • 4-8 graham crackers

  3. Step 3: Gently fold in the miniature marshmallows and graham cracker pieces (reserve some for garnish) into the melted chocolate until evenly coated.
  4. Step 4: Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, shaping them into small clusters.
  5. Step 5: Sprinkle the tops with additional graham cracker crumbs, sea salt, or sprinkles if using.
  6. Step 6: Place the clusters in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes or until firm.

Tips & Variations

  • To make vegan s’mores clusters, use non-dairy chocolate and vegan marshmallows throughout.
  • If you prefer a thinner chocolate coating, add a little more coconut or vegetable oil during melting.
  • Add chopped nuts or dried fruit to the clusters for extra texture and flavor.
  • For a fun twist, use flavored marshmallows or sprinkle a little cinnamon in the mixture.

Storage

Store s’mores clusters in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. To enjoy, simply let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly or eat chilled for a refreshing treat.

How to Serve

Clusters of small golden brown nuts coated in thick, smooth milk chocolate form uneven, chunky shapes, each with a shiny surface and sprinkled lightly with crumbly, fine beige bits on top. These chocolate-covered nut clusters rest scattered on a flat white plate. Around the clusters are broken pieces of light tan crunchy crackers adding a rough texture contrast. The plate is set on a white marbled surface, creating a clean and bright background. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7
