S’mores Pie

This S’mores Pie lets you enjoy the flavors of the classic summertime treat any time of the year. It’s gooey, chocolatey, and utterly delicious with its buttery graham cracker crust. S’mores, no campfire required!

Easy S’mores Dessert

This S’mores Pie made its first appearance when we needed to take a treat to our neighbor’s tailgating party. The pie was gone in a flash, everybody loved it – I knew I needed to share the recipe!

I love that we can enjoy this s’mores treat whenever the fancy strikes us, any time of year, without needing a bonfire. It’s gooey and chocolatey and so dang delicious with its buttery graham cracker crust.

This is a go-to treat in our family – one that’s quick and easy to make, plus it’s a guaranteed crowd pleaser. Even Blake, who’s never been a fan of s’mores, says “This pie is way better than any s’more I’ve ever had!”

Go ahead. Make it. See what we’re talkin’ about!!

What You’ll Need

This s’mores dessert begins with your classic s’mores ingredients, plus a few extras to bring it altogether in pie form. Scroll down to the recipe box for the full measurements.

• Unsalted butter – When combined with the graham cracker crumbs mixture, this makes an incredibly flavorful crust!
• Sugar – Sweetens the crust.
• Egg – Helps the crust hold its shape.
• Vanilla extract
• Flour
• Graham cracker crumbs – Buy prepackaged crumbs at the store or you can make them yourself with regular graham crackers.
• Baking powder
• Kosher salt
• Marshmallow creme – Marshmallow creme is gooey and spreadable, adding a variety of marshmallow textures to the pie.
• Hershey’s – I used classic Hershey’s milk chocolate bars but if you’re a dark chocolate fan, do substitute for Hershey’s dark chocolate bars!
• Marshmallows – Mini marshmallows fit perfectly into the empty spaces around the other ingredients. I love how they puff up and brown just like when you roast marshmallows over a campfire! If you have regular/large marshmallows, cut them into smaller pieces.

How to Make S’mores Pie

If you want your own pie to have the same textural appearance as mine, be sure to follow my layering instructions. (I promise – it’s super easy!)

• Make the crust mixture. This gets used 2 ways – as the bottom crust and as a top crumble. Beat the butter and sugar, then add in the egg and vanilla, followed by the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder, and salt. Press part of the crust mixture on the bottom and up the sides of the pie pan. Reserve the rest of the mixture for the top crumble.
• Add the marshmallow creme & chocolate. Spread the marshmallow creme over the bottom of the crust, then add some of the chocolate squares on top. Top with a layer of mini marshmallows.
• Add more crust and marshmallows. With the remaining crust mixture, add the top crumble by dropping jagged clumps over the marshmallows layer. Then top with the rest of the marshmallows and chocolate squares.

• Bake. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until nicely browned. Let cool, then slice and enjoy!

I find it so hard to wait for this s’mores pie to cool. It fills the house with such an amazingly wonderful sweet and buttery smell.

If we’re not saving the pie to enjoy later with company, I simply cannot resist eating a piece while the pie is still warm and super gooey. When the marshmallows have that delightful toasted exterior, just like they were roasted over an open fire!

Tips for Success

Here are a few tips for making the best s’mores dessert.

• Keep a little butter handy. I like to keep an extra tablespoon of butter nearby when working with the crust. I just dap my fingertips into the butter, which helps the crust not stick to my fingers.
• Don’t smooth out the top. Isn’t that top crust fun? I love the texture of that buttery graham cracker crust! To achieve that same jagged, crumbly appearance, do not press the top in. Just drop jagged clumps of the crust mixture onto the pie and let them be!
• How can I tell when the pie is done? When the pie is in the oven, the marshmallows will puff up in the most delightful way. You’ll know the s’mores pie is done when the marshmallows are beautifully browned and the squares of Hershey’s chocolate bar are all soft and melty from the heat.
• Use Hershey’s chocolate. While technically you can use any chocolate you want in this recipe, I encourage you to stick with a classic Hershey’s bar. Hershey’s is pretty much synonymous with s’mores, and gives this dessert its authentic s’mores flavor.
• Let the pie cool completely. For the cleanest cuts of pie, be sure to let the pie cool completely before cutting into individual pieces. If it’s still warm, the marshmallow creme will not be set and will want to spread…which isn’t bad or wrong! It’s equally delicious, just has a different texture!

Serving Suggestions

The photo above – this is what a piece looks like when you have the patience to let the pie cool before cutting into it. Ha!

To extra-ensure clean-cut edges, I would even recommend refrigerating the pie for up to 30 minutes after it has cooled to room temperature.

This is a sweet pie. So a glass of cold milk or a cup of coffee goes great with it.

How to Store

S’mores pie will keep well for up to 2 days at room temperature, or up to 4 days in the refrigerator. Just cover the pie pan tightly with plastic wrap or transfer individual pieces to an airtight container.

If you want to enjoy a piece warm, just pop it into the microwave for a few seconds.

I do not recommend freezing this pie.
