S’mores Traybake. Perhaps not as much fun as sitting round a campfire and toasting marshmallows. But these bars contain all the main ingredients in a S’more. All nicely parceled up in a convenient traybake. And they taste great.

Living in the US, we have been introduced to S’mores and they have been a firm favorite in our house ever since. Especially with Little Miss Traybakes. For anyone who doesn’t know what a S’more is, it’s essentially a sandwich made of Graham Crackers (which are more or less like Digestive biscuits) with a piece of chocolate and a toasted marshmallow inbetween. Then you attempt to eat it without getting too much sticky marshmallow all over your face and hands (or is that just Little Miss Traybakes?!)

S’mores have such a simple list of ingredients, and ingredients that are all found in many traditional traybake recipes. So, I thought they would be perfect to translate into traybake form.

Warning: these are very sticky and gooey, especially if you don’t keep them in the fridge, but they are also much better that way.

You can make these with whatever chocolate you prefer. I’ve made these with dark and milk and with a combination of both dark and milk. You know your preferences and these taste great with either type of chocolate.

I used mini marshmallows for my S’mores Traybake because I like the way it looks. But, it is time consuming to place the marshmallows on top of the chocolate. Or at least, it’s time consuming if you want to line them up in neat rows. This traybake also works if you just scatter the marshmallows over the top and then fill in any gaps afterwards!

When it comes to toasting the marshmallow, I used my grill/broiler, keeping the tin on the middle shelf of my oven. You need to keep a close eye on this because when it starts to brown, it can scorch quite quickly. I find it also helps to turn the tin around regularly to ensure an even color.
