Hey everyone! Guess what? I am so excited to share one of my absolute FAVORITE treats with you today! If you love chocolate, marshmallows, and cookies, then you are going to love this easy s’mores recipe.
You know those amazing, gooey, chocolatey, marshmallow-filled treats called s’mores? They are seriously the BEST! When I think about s’mores, I usually picture sitting outside while camping, gathered around a warm crackling campfire with my family or friends. The sky is filled with sparkling stars, the fire is glowing, and everyone is laughing and telling stories. It sounds like the perfect night, doesn’t it?
But here is the best part: You don’t need to pack a tent, drive for hours, or wait for a camping trip to enjoy delicious s’mores. You can make them right at home!
Sometimes my neighbours invite us over, and we all gather around their backyard fire pit. It feels just like camping, except my cozy bed is only a few steps away! We roast marshmallows, share funny stories, laugh together, and make lots of tasty s’mores. It is such a fun way to spend time with friends and family.
There is something special about making s’mores together. Everyone gets excited watching the marshmallow slowly toast over the fire. Some people like their marshmallows golden brown, while others like them extra crispy and a little burnt. (I know some people who think the burnt parts are the best!)
But what happens if you don’t have a fire pit? Or what if the weather is rainy, cold, or windy? Don’t worry! I have a super easy secret for you.
You can make delicious s’mores right in your kitchen using your microwave!
That’s right . There is no campfire needed! This recipe is quick, simple, and so easy that kids can help make them with a little help from a grown-up like mom or dad. It is the perfect treat for a movie night, after-school snack, sleepover, or whenever you are craving something sweet.
Are you ready to learn how to make the fastest and easiest s’mores ever? Let’s get started!

Gathering Your Easy Ingredients
The best thing about this recipe is that you only need a few simple ingredients.
Celebration Milk Chocolate Top Butter Cookies
Celebration Milk Chocolate Top Butter Cookies are one of my favourite cookies to use for this recipe. The best part is that they already have milk chocolate on top, so you don’t need to unwrap and break apart a chocolate bar.
This saves time and makes building your s’mores much easier. Plus, every cookie gets the perfect amount of chocolate!
Large Marshmallows
Large marshmallows work best because they melt nicely and become soft and gooey. All you need to do is carefully cut each marshmallow in half before adding it to your cookie.
Microwave-Safe Plate or Dish
Make sure you use a plate or dish that is safe to put in the microwave. Choose one that is large enough so your s’mores have some space and do not touch each other.
Remember, marshmallows melt very quickly, so always keep an eye on them while they are heating.
How to Make Microwave S’mores
Step 1: Prepare Your Cookie
Place one Celebration Milk Chocolate Top Butter Cookie on a microwave-safe plate with the chocolate side facing up.
Step 2: Add the Marshmallow
Take a large marshmallow that has been cut in half and place it directly on top of the chocolate part of the cookie. Try to put it in the middle so it melts evenly.
Step 3: Microwave Carefully
Place the plate in the microwave and heat it on high for about 5–7 seconds.
Every microwave is different, so you may need a little more or less time. Start with a shorter time because marshmallows can expand and melt very quickly.
Step 4: Create Your S’mores Sandwich
As soon as the marshmallow becomes soft and gooey, carefully remove the plate from the microwave.
Quickly place another Celebration Milk Chocolate Top Butter Cookie on top of the melted marshmallow, with the chocolate side facing down.
Press gently to create your delicious s’mores sandwich.
Enjoy Your Homemade S’mores!
Be careful because your s’mores may be warm when they come out of the microwave. Give them a few moments to cool before taking your first bite.
And don’t forget the napkins! These treats can get wonderfully messy because the melted marshmallow and chocolate can be extra gooey.
The best way to eat them is just like a little sandwich. Take a bite and enjoy the combination of crunchy cookies, creamy chocolate, and soft melted marshmallow.
These microwave s’mores are perfect for:
- Family movie nights
- Sleepovers
- Birthday parties
- After-school treats
- Rainy-day activities
- Weekend snacks
