The Best S’mores Pizza Recipe for Dessert Lovers (No Campfire Needed)

Introduction

If you love the flavor of classic s’mores and the soft, chewy base of a cookie, S’mores Pizza is your dream dessert. It’s a dessert pizza recipe that builds on a graham cracker crust cookie base, smothered in milk chocolate chips, gooey mini marshmallows, and melted pieces of Hershey’s chocolate.

Think of it as what would happen if a campfire treat and a homemade cookie pizza had a glorious, golden-brown baby.

Bonus: if you like a Chocolate Chip Cookie Pizza, this one’s even more fun to torch.

Ingredients List

Here’s what you’ll need to bring this golden gooeyness to life:

• All-purpose flour – the structure backbone
  
• Graham cracker crumbs – that classic s’mores crunch
  
• Baking soda – gives your crust some lift
  
• Salt – enhances all the sweet flavors
  
• Unsalted butter – flavor and moisture
  
• Light brown sugar – rich, caramel-y notes
  
• Granulated sugar – adds crispness
  
• Large eggs – binding and structure
  
• Vanilla extract – depth and aroma
  
• Milk chocolate chips – smooth melting and that signature flavor
  
• Mini marshmallows – toastable perfection
  
• Hershey’s chocolate bars – that classic s’mores taste
  
• Whole graham cracker – crushed on top for texture

Step-by-Step Instructions: How to Make S’mores Pizza

1. Prep the Pan and Mix Dry Ingredients

Start with a 16″ pizza pan—this gives your dough space to spread without spilling over. Spray it well with nonstick spray or line with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

In a separate bowl, whisk together:

• 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  
• 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  
• ½ tsp baking soda
  
• ½ tsp salt

Whisking distributes leavening evenly and breaks up clumps, which means better texture and rise.

2. Cream Butter, Sugar, and Eggs

In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, cream together:

• ½ cup softened unsalted butter
  
• ½ cup light brown sugar
  
• ⅓ cup granulated sugar

Beat for 2–3 minutes until light and fluffy—this incorporates air for a soft, chewy base. Then mix in:

• 1 large egg
  
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Mix just until smooth. Don’t overbeat—you’re not looking for volume, just a cohesive dough.

3. Combine Dough and Chill

Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet, mixing until just combined. You want a dough that’s soft and scoopable—not runny.

Chill the dough for 1 hour. This step is crucial: it solidifies the butter and prevents spreading in the oven, giving you a thick, chewy cookie base instead of a flat, crispy one.

4. Shape and Bake the Crust

Press the chilled dough into your prepared pizza pan, leaving a 1-inch border around the edge. That helps give it a pizza-like appearance and stops overflow.

Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 22–25 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and the center is just set. Let it cool for 10 minutes before topping—it should be warm, not hot.

5. Add Chocolate and Broil Marshmallows

While the crust is still warm, sprinkle on:

• 1 cup milk chocolate chips

Let them melt for a minute, then spread gently with a spatula to create a smooth chocolate “sauce.”

Top with:

• A generous handful of mini marshmallows
  
• Chopped pieces of Hershey’s chocolate bars

Broil for 1–2 minutes—watch carefully! Marshmallows should puff up and toast, not burn.

6. Garnish, Slice, and Serve

Crush 1 whole graham cracker and sprinkle it over the top for crunch and that classic s’mores look.

Let the pizza sit for 5–10 minutes to set up, then slice using a pizza cutter for clean pieces. Serve warm or at room temp—or microwave slices for 10 seconds to bring the gooeyness back.

Storage Tips

• Room Temperature: Store covered up to 4 days.
  
• Refrigerated: Keeps up to 7 days, but the crust will firm up.
  
• Reheating Tip: A quick 10-second zap in the microwave brings back the gooey magic.
