Easy no-bake Golden Grahams s’mores are made with cereal, marshmallows, & chocolate chips and take less than 15 minutes to make.
I’m a sucker for s’mores anything. I love s’mores cake, s’mores cookies, s’mores pie, s’mores anything!
Especially when the s’mores recipe is super easy and super tasty. And these Golden Graham s’mores are both.
They take less than 15 minutes to make, and they’ve got plenty of ooey gooey s’mores goodness.
They’re a quick and easy way to bring the goodness of s’mores indoors!
How to make Golden Graham s’mores
In a large pot over low heat, melt the butter most of the way.
Add 16 ounces of mini marshmallows, and continue to cook until marshmallows have completely melted. Stir the mixture regularly.
Remove from heat. Stir in 8 cups of cereal until the cereal is coated with melted marshmallow.
Add the remaining 5 ounces of marshmallows and 1/2 cup of the mini semisweet chocolate chips. Toss to combine.
Pour the cereal treats into a greased 9×13-inch baking pan. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cereal and 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips.
Press into pan, and let it cool to room temperature before cutting.
Tip: If the cereal mixture is sticking to your hands, try lightly spritzing your hands with nonstick baking spray.
How long will they keep?
These cereal bars will keep for up to 4 days, covered, at room temperature. They are best eaten within 1-2 days after making them.
However, if you live in a humid area, you may find that the bars soften faster. I’ve had good luck with loosely covering the bars with a paper towel to help keep them fresh longer.

Kelly Mencarelli says
Made these two years ago for my son’s bday instead of cake. This year he requested these again instead of cake. Soo easy and addicting!
Kate says
Thank you! I’m so glad that your family has enjoyed the bars!
Gus says
Any idea if these would freeze well? This is a lot of bars for three people, and I’m afraid we’d wind up eating them all.
Kate says
Hi! I haven’t tried freezing this recipe. You could also try making a half batch in an 8×8 pan if that would be a more manageable size.
Taylor says
Best cereal treats I ever made!
Kate says
Thank you!
Kelsey Ebner says
This is a winner! I’ll be adding this into my rotation of desserts to bring to parties and just to make at home…because…they are delicious! Even better than I had dreamed up. Thank you for a great recipe!
Kate says
Thank you so much!
Alicia says
Excited to try these. Have you ever kept them in the fridge? If I make ahead and refrigerate will they get soggy?
Kate says
I haven’t, but I will the next time I make a batch! I live in a high humidity area, so I can’t cover them. Otherwise they get very soggy, very quickly.
Kathy says
These are my go-to bars. Everyone loves them, especially my grandkids! I add a jar of marshmallow cream and cut back on the mini marshmallows. Makes them extra gooey!
Kate says
Yay!! I’ll have to give the marshmallow cream a try!
Angie says
I have been seriously eating these like crazy!! I was spending a fortune on boxes of the golden graham smores bars!! These are SO MUCH BETTER!!! And totally cheaper too!! Much thanks for this stupendous recipe!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Kate says
Thank you so much!!
Sarah says
I love these bars my favorite park is how gooey I make them
With the marshmallow fluff too it just makes them even more taster lol thanks for sharing butt this recipe has been in my brain since I was like 12-13 from making so many for Easter one year an other bars with other kids of cereal
Kate says
I’m glad you liked them!
Sarah says
How much marshmallow cream did you use?
arcee says
Easy & turned out great. Didn’t add the extra marshmallows because I didn’t want to open a second bag & have a partial bag leftover.
Kate says
Thank you!
Lil says
I made the bars tonight and hope they stay as crispy and tasty as they are when first mixed together. They had me from the first bite – as I was cleaning my fingers off of the grahams that stuck to my fingers. The grandkids will be surprised as they are great rice krispe treat fans.
Kate says
I hope that it was a hit!
Diane says
Thanks this is just great on a rainy Labor Day family gathering.
Kate says
Thank you! I’m glad you liked them!
Dawn says
Love these! So much better than store bought cereal bars. My daughter used to always ask for rice krispie treats but now she has a new favorite.
Kate says
Thank you! I’m so glad that your daughter likes them!
Mike says
These turned out great and taste like s’mores. I think I needed more cereal. I used 1 standard box and I was technically an ounce short on marshmallows because the bags were 10 oz. but they seemed a bit too marmallowy.
Regardless, they were absolutely delicious.
Kate says
Thank you! Feel free to add more cereal if you find them to be too marshmallowy. =)
Kelly says
I made these yesterday and served them tonight at a cookout I was hosting. The graham crackers just got chewy and had no crunch. I was so disappointed because they looked so good. I followed the recipe exactly, not sure what went wrong. Any ideas?
Kate says
Hi! I don’t think it was that anything went wrong so much as cereal just softens as it sits. The cereal pulls the moisture from the marshmallow and the butter (and the air if you live in a humid area) – similar to the way that cereal softens in milk. I live in an area with a lot of humidity. I’ve had good luck loosely covering the bars with a paper towel to help them stay fresh longer.
Colleen says
These are delicious!
Kate says
Thank you so much!
Phyllis says
I love these!!! Now I can make them instead of paying the inflated amount they want in stores!!! Thank you.
Kate says
Thank you!
Lisa Pinder says
These are my family’s NEW FAVORITE! I’m even getting requests from their friends to make these bars! Thank you!
Kate says
Yay!! I’m so glad that they were a hit!
Kass says
I made these a couple weeks ago and they were a HUGE HIT! If I’m honest, I ate one before they finished cooling, and another before I finished cutting them up. The group I served them to ate EVERY LAST bite and requested I make them again! Love this recipe – it’s so easy and DELICIOUS!! Thank you for sharing! :)
Kate says
I’m so glad that they were a hit! Ha! I do the same! They’re dangerous to have around. =)
julie collins says
I wonder if you could do this with 8cups of chopped graham crackers?
I don’t have any Golden Grahams cereal.
Kate says
Hmmm…I’m not sure! Golden grahams are crunchier than graham crackers, so the graham crackers may soften up too much, but I haven’t tried it to say for sure.
Karly says
Love these! Can’t wait to make this!
Kate says
Thanks! I hope you enjoy them as much as we do! =)
Allie says
My kids went crazy for the bars! LOL They gobbled them up and asked for more.
Kate says
Yay!! I’m so glad that they were a hit! Thanks for commenting!
