S’mores Brownie Bites are the perfect mix of gooey marshmallows, crunchy graham crackers, and rich chocolate on top of mini brownies. This easy and delicious treat is made with boxed brownie mix so you can enjoy a bite-sized taste of s’mores anytime!
I love s’mores just as much as the next person, but sometimes it’s not always convenient to go outside and roast a marshmallow, especially when it’s cold out! These s’mores brownie bites combine all the classic flavors of s’mores: the toasty marshmallows, crunchy graham crackers, and sweet chocolate all wrapped up in brownie form! Not only are these brownie bites ridiculously easy to make, but they are also insanely delicious!
If I have time, I’m using my homemade brownie recipe any chance I get. Not to brag, but they are some of the best brownies I’ve ever had! But I totally understand that sometimes you need a semi-homemade version when you’re short on time, and thankfully, you can use a boxed brownie mix for this recipe. But not just any boxed brownie mix. I HIGHLY recommend using the Ghiradelli brand if you can find it. They are the best ones I’ve found, and it’s high-quality taste really makes a difference.
All you’ll need to do is preheat your oven and prepare a mini muffin tin. Mix your brownie batter, fill the cups three-quarters full, and bake. Top each brownie with mini marshmallows, crushed graham crackers, and a chocolate square. Bake for another 8-10 minutes until the marshmallows are golden brown. Let them cool, and enjoy!
From backyard barbecues to cozy campfire nights or holiday gatherings, serve them with vanilla ice cream, a drizzle of caramel sauce, or a cup of hot cocoa during the winter months. They’re a hit at parties, great for sharing with friends, and an easy way to satisfy any s’mores craving.

Prepare the brownie batter: Mix up the brownie batter according to the instructions on the box, or use a homemade recipe.
Scoop and bake: Once mixed, fill each prepared mini muffin tin about ¾ full with brownie batter. Place in the oven and partially bake for 8 minutes, then remove from the oven.

Bake and enjoy: Place the mini muffin tin back into the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes or until the marshmallows turn golden brown on top. Let them cool completely before removing and serving. Enjoy!
Use a mini muffin tin for perfectly portioned bites that are easy to handle and serve.
Spray the muffin tin generously with non-stick spray to prevent the brownies from sticking.
Fill the muffin cups only three-quarters full to allow room for the toppings without overflowing.
Bake the brownies just until they start to set, about 8 minutes, to avoid overcooking during the second bake.
Press the toppings lightly into the semi-baked brownies so they adhere well without sinking.
Watch the marshmallows closely during the second bake to prevent burning; they should be golden brown but not burnt.
Let the brownie bites cool in the tin for a few minutes before removing them to avoid breaking apart and allowing them to set properly.
Use a small offset spatula or butter knife to gently lift the brownie bites out of the tin so they stay together.
Cool the brownies completely on a wire rack before serving and storing.
Substitute dark chocolate squares for a richer chocolate taste, or use white chocolate squares for a sweeter, creamy variation.
Add a layer of peanut butter on top of the brownies before adding the marshmallows and graham crackers.
Mix crushed pretzels into the brownie batter for a salty-sweet combination.
Use caramel-filled chocolate squares for an extra gooey, indulgent treat.
Add a sprinkle of sea salt on top before baking for a sweet and salty touch.
Substitute marshmallows with marshmallow fluff for a creamier topping.
Fold in chopped nuts into the brownie batter for added crunch and flavor.
Use flavored graham crackers, like cinnamon or chocolate, for an extra layer of taste.
Add a few drops of mint extract to the brownie batter for a refreshing mint-chocolate combo, or top the brownies with crushed peppermint candies during the holidays.
Add a layer of crushed Oreos on top for a cookies-and-cream variation.
Mix some espresso powder into the brownie batter for a mocha flavor.
Add a drizzle of raspberry or strawberry sauce on top after baking for a fruity flavor contrast.
Use gluten-free brownie mix and graham crackers for a gluten-free treat.
Storing: Store brownie bites in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, keep them in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Freezing: Place the cooled brownies in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze until solid. Transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or container and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw on the counter until defrosted before serving.
How do I know when the brownies are done baking?
The brownies are done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. The marshmallows should be golden brown, and the brownies should feel set but still soft to the touch.
Can I make these brownies in a regular-sized muffin tin?
Yes, you can use a regular-sized muffin tin, but you may need to adjust the baking time. Increase the initial bake to about 12 minutes and the second bake to 10-12 minutes, watching closely to avoid overbaking.
What should I do if the marshmallows start to burn?
If the marshmallows start to burn, cover the pan loosely with aluminum foil to prevent further browning. You can also reduce the oven temperature slightly to allow the brownies to finish baking without burning the marshmallows.
How do I prevent the brownies from sticking to the muffin tin?
Spray the muffin tin generously with non-stick baking spray before adding the batter. You can also use mini muffin liners for easier removal and less cleanup.
Perfect little brownies topped with all the great stuff of a s’more. Graham crackers, milk chocolate and marshmallow all melted on top of a brownie. Such a great way to make a regular brownie even better.
