Extra Gooey S’mores Skillet Brownie…that ultimate summertime backyard dessert we’re all craving most….but even better than imagined. Just the dessert your weekend is longing for. It takes almost no effort to make. With pieces of graham cracker, sticky sweet marshmallow fluff, and puddles of melted milk chocolate, every bite is insanely gooey and molten-like. Enjoy this giant crinkle top brownie warm, right out of the oven, with a scoop of ice cream.
Man, this one really just speaks for itself. It’s everyone’s favorite crinkle stop brownie stuffed with the sweetest combination of graham crackers, marshmallow fluff, and Hershey’s milk chocolate pieces.
This one is decadent, but every warm and gooey spoonful is worth it.
I honestly have no idea what brought on the inspiration for this recipe. But for the last few weeks, I’ve really, really been wanting to create this brownie for summer nights. I just love a s’more on a warm summer night. It’s that quintessential summer dessert, but this version is even better.
Normally, I stay away from overly, overly decadent sweets. But just like my cookies n’ cream chocolate chip cookies, the over-the-top desserts do have their time and place.
Today is the day for the s’mores skillet brownie.
So what’s the secret to these s’more brownies?
Real marshmallow fluff (mine is homemade) and an XL Hershey’s bar.
Most s’more recipes use marshmallows, but I wanted my brownie to be different and so, so, so gooey. So I used marshmallow fluff, and honestly, it’s a game-changer.
Now, I will say that I did make my own marshmallow fluff using this recipe. It’s shockingly the easiest to do. But of course, you can use store-bought fluff as well. Totally up to you.
Onto the brownie batter
I use my go-to recipe that requires lots of whisked eggs for a crinkly top. Whisking the eggs prior to mixing them into the batter creates air within the eggs that helps to create that crinkly top. It might seem like an unnecessary step, and a waste of a clean bowl, but just trust me on this, it’s what makes these brownies great.
Well, that and all the semi-sweet chocolate…and butter.
My favorites.
Now, assemble
Gather your ingredients. You’ll need the classic S’more ingredients…graham crackers, marshmallow fluff, and Hershey’s milk chocolate bars. Simple, nothing fancy at all, but all so good. If you don’t want to use marshmallow fluff, feel free to use marshmallows instead.
Add half the crackers and chocolate to the bottom of a skillet or square baking dish. Then spread about half of the brownie batter out and dollop the fluff over the batter. Add the remaining chocolate and graham cracker pieces and cover with the remaining batter.
Simple, but it’s going to be so GREAT.
Bake
Wait patiently by the oven. I like to bake for about twenty-five minutes. But I like my brownie fudgy and molten-like in the center with pockets of melted chocolate. For a more set brownie, bake closer to twenty-eight or thirty minutes.
Now pull the skillet out and smell the deliciousness. If you’d like to get your fluff extra toasted, you can switch the oven to broil and broil for thirty seconds or use a blow torch to toast the fluff. I love a burnt s’more.
How do you serve this s’more skillet brownie?
Warm, right out of the oven, with a scoop of ice cream and a spoon…or maybe several spoons. This is a dessert that’s meant for sharing with family and friends. So it’s perfect for summer nights in the backyard.
I know it’s decadent, but it’s summer, and we all know last year’s summer was a bust. So live it up this year, it’s going to be beyond good!

Nutritional information is only an estimate. The accuracy of the nutritional information for any recipe on this site is not guaranteed.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 sticks (3/4 cup) salted butter
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 3/4 cups granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons instant coffee granules
- 3 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 2-4 squares graham crackers, broken into pieces
- 1 (4.4 ounce) Hershey chocolate bar, broken into pieces
- 1 cup marshmallow fluff (or 8-10 marshmallows)
Instructions
- 1. Preheat the oven to 350° F. Lightly butter a 10-12 inch oven-safe skillet or 9 inch brown pan. 2.  In the microwave, melt together the butter and chocolate chips until melted and smooth. Stir in the sugar, vanilla, and instant coffee. 3. In a small bowl whisk the eggs for 1 minute until bubbly on top. Stir the eggs into the chocolate mix. Add the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder. Stir until just combined. 4. Arrange 1/2 of the graham crackers and 1/2 of the chocolate bar pieces in the bottom of the prepared skillet. Spread 1/2 the brownie batter over the crackers. Dollop the fluff over the batter and add the remaining Hershey's pieces. Now add the remaining graham crackers. Top with the remaining batter, gently spreading. It's OK if the batter doesn't cover all of the fluff. Bake for 25-28 minutes or until the brownies are just set on top, but very jiggly in the center. Remove from the oven, let cool 3-5 minutes. If you'd like to get your fluff extra toasted, you can switch the oven to broil and broil for thirty seconds or use a blow torch to toast the fluff. I love a burnt s'more. DIG in, preferably with a scoop of ice cream!
These brownies are outstanding. I made these today to celebrate the fourth. Perfection!!
These can work completely gluten free. You can substitute the flour needed with gluten free flour (Bob’s Red Mill worked for me) and substitute the graham crackers with gluten free graham crackers, like Pamela’s honey grahams.
I have to hide the leftovers from hubby and myself… seriously!!

I made the Gooey S’mores Skillet Brownie for Father’s Day dessert, and it was a huge hit! Followed the recipe to a T, and it was easy to do. So very delicious, especially with ice cream, but today, my husband had the leftovers cold and without ice cream. He declares the recipe a WINNER!

Hey Dee,
Wonderful! I am so glad this recipe was a hit, thanks a lot for making it! Have a lovely week:) xTieghan
Hi Tieghan:
Outstanding! This is one of the best desserts I have ever made. It is exactly as you described it. I topped it with a scoop of Tillamook Old Fashioned Vanilla and wow. I also did a taster with a sprinkle of cinnamon on the ice cream which was quite nice 🙂
It is a breeze to make and the cast iron gives it a very rustic vibe.
Thank you so much for this innovation. It IS an instant classic crowd pleaser.
Best to you,
Darren
Hey Darren,

Could you make this in a pan if you don’t have a skillet?
Hey there,
Yes, that will also work well! I hope you enjoy this recipe, please let me know if you give it a try! xTieghan
The s’more skillet brownie was so good. I felt like I was having a dessert at a restaurant. The graham crackers and marshmallows don’t overpower the brownie.
Hey Mary,
Happy Wednesday! I am so glad you enjoyed this recipe, thanks for making it:) xTieghan
can we get the video please?
Hey there,
Sorry I do not have a video for this recipe. Please let me know if you give it a try. I hope you love the recipe! xTieghan
Can you make this before bake right at dinner serve for dessert?
Hey Kelly,
Sure, that will work just fine for you. I hope you enjoy this recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
Hi,,can you bake it longer for a normal..ish or hand eating brownie….?
Hey Diane,
Sorry, I have never tried this but you could certainly give it a go! I hope you love the recipe, please let me know how it turns out! xTieghan
This looks delish and I can’t wait to make it! One tip for anyone else who, like me, doesn’t really care for graham crackers is to use biscotti instead. I always use the salted caramel flavor and it’s a game changer in recipes that call for graham crackers or graham cracker crumbs (just crush the biscotti) This is the perfect recipe for me to make that swap.
Thanks! I hope you love the recipe!! xTieghan
What if I don’t have instant coffee?
The recipe should still work, it will just have less-intense chocolate flavor.
Hey Meredith,
You can simply omit the instant coffee. I hope the recipe turns out amazing for you, please let me know if you give it a try! xTieghan
