Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate Mixture
- 2 cups milk chocolate chips (or dark chocolate chips; use non-dairy chocolate chips or chopped chocolate bar for vegan)
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional; can substitute canola oil or vegetable oil to thin chocolate if needed)
- 2 cups miniature marshmallows (use vegan mini marshmallows if needed)
Graham Crackers
- 4–8 graham crackers (broken into bits and optional squares for base)
Toppings (Optional)
- Graham cracker crumbs
- Sea salt
- Sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and simplify cleanup.
- Create Graham Cracker Bases (Optional): Cut or break graham crackers into small squares. Each sheet contains 4 sections; break each section in half to make approximately 8 squares per sheet, depending on your cluster size preference.
- Melt Chocolate: Place chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using) in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring gently after each until chocolate is fully melted and smooth. Add oil if needed to thin the chocolate.
- Combine Ingredients: Mix miniature marshmallows and graham cracker bits into the melted chocolate until all are thoroughly coated.
- Form Clusters: Using a small or medium cookie scoop or spoon, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the parchment paper, placing them on top of the graham cracker squares if using. Ensure clusters have enough space between them.
- Chill to Set: Refrigerate the clusters for about one hour or until they become firm and set.
- Serve and Enjoy: Once firm, the s’mores clusters are ready to be enjoyed as a sweet treat or party snack.
Notes
- For vegan clusters, use non-dairy chocolate and vegan mini marshmallows.
- If the melted chocolate is too thick, add a small amount of oil to thin it for easier mixing.
- Optional toppings such as sea salt or sprinkles can be added for extra flavor or decoration.
- You can skip the graham cracker base and simply mix the cracker bits into the clusters for a slightly different texture.
- Store clusters in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
