This recipe is basically dessert magic. Crescent roll dough bakes up soft and fluffy on the inside, golden and crisp on the outside—like a cross between a croissant and a biscuit. Tuck in a few pieces of chocolate, some mini marshmallows, and crushed graham crackers, and what comes out is a warm, melty, nostalgic treat you’ll want to make on repeat.
They’re perfect for after-school snacks, easy party desserts, or cozy weekend baking with the kids.

Prep Time and Servings
Prep Time: 5–10 minutes
Bake Time: 10–12 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes
Servings: 8 rolls
Calories per roll: ~180
Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough (8-count)
- 8 small chocolate squares (like Hershey’s) or chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup mini marshmallows
- 1/4 cup crushed graham crackers (about 2 full sheets)
- Optional toppings:
- Melted chocolate for drizzling
- Powdered sugar for dusting
- Extra crushed graham crackers for sprinkling
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat the oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
2. Prepare the dough
Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles along the perforated lines.
3. Add the s’mores filling
Place a piece of chocolate at the wide end of each triangle. Top with a few mini marshmallows and a generous pinch of crushed graham crackers.
4. Roll them up
Starting at the wide end, gently roll each triangle toward the point to enclose the filling. Tuck in the sides slightly if needed to prevent marshmallows from escaping.
5. Bake
Place the rolls on your prepared baking sheet and bake for 10–12 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
6. Cool and garnish
Let the rolls cool for a few minutes. Drizzle with melted chocolate or dust with powdered sugar and a sprinkle of graham cracker crumbs, if you like.
7. Serve warm
Best enjoyed warm while the chocolate is melty and the marshmallows are gooey.
How to Serve
- As a quick weekend dessert
- With a glass of cold milk or a mug of hot cocoa
- Cut into halves for party platters or potlucks
- Topped with ice cream and chocolate sauce for a s’mores sundae
- As a fun treat for camping trips (yes, they can be made in a toaster oven too!)
Additional Tips
1. Don’t overfill
A little filling goes a long way—too much and the marshmallows may ooze out while baking.
2. Line your pan
The marshmallows can get sticky as they melt, so use parchment or silicone mats for easy cleanup.
3. Get creative
Try peanut butter cups, white chocolate, or caramel instead of classic milk chocolate.
4. Want more crunch?
Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs on the outside of the rolls before baking for added texture.
5. Eat them fresh
These are best warm out of the oven. If reheating, pop them in a toaster oven or low oven—not the microwave—for best results.
Recipe Variations
Nutella S’mores Rolls
Spread a bit of Nutella on the dough before adding marshmallows and graham crumbs.
Peanut Butter S’mores Rolls
Add a teaspoon of peanut butter under the chocolate for a salty-sweet upgrade.
Cookies & Cream Version
Use cookies & cream chocolate and crushed Oreo crumbs instead of graham crackers.
Campfire Banana S’mores Rolls
Add a thin slice of banana with the chocolate and marshmallows.
Mini S’mores Bites
Cut each crescent triangle in half and make 16 mini rolls for bite-sized treats.
Storage and Reheating
Store:
Keep leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
Reheat:
Warm in a 300°F oven or toaster oven for 5–7 minutes until soft and gooey again.
Freeze:
Not recommended, as the marshmallows tend to get rubbery after freezing and reheating.
FAQ
Can I make these ahead of time?
You can prep and refrigerate them (unbaked) a few hours ahead, then bake just before serving.
What if I don’t have graham crackers?
Crushed digestive biscuits or vanilla wafers work well too.
Can I use puff pastry instead of crescent rolls?
Yes! Cut into triangles or rectangles and bake per the pastry instructions until golden and crisp.
Can I make these dairy-free?
Use dairy-free chocolate and crescent roll dough (check the label—many are accidentally vegan), and skip the marshmallows or use a vegan brand.
Conclusion
These S’mores Crescent Rolls are the easiest way to bring that cozy campfire flavor into your kitchen—no flames required. They’re warm, melty, chocolatey, and guaranteed to be a hit with kids and adults alike.
