This easy Christmas treat combines salty crackers, buttery toffee, gooey marshmallows, and silky chocolate for a nostalgic, crowd-pleasing dessert. Quick to make and perfect for gifting, it’s a festive twist on classic s’mores that kids and adults love.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 40 saltine crackers (enough to cover a standard baking sheet)
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (softened slightly)
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 2 cups mini marshmallows
  • 1/2 cup crushed graham crackers (optional)
  • Pinch of flaky sea salt (optional)
  • Festive sprinkles (optional)
  • Chopped nuts, such as pecans or walnuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or foil, leaving an overhang for easy removal. Arrange saltine crackers in a single layer, edge to edge.
  2. In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add brown sugar and stir continuously until bubbling, about 3 minutes. Lower heat and simmer for 3-4 minutes, stirring often, until thickened.
  3. Immediately pour hot toffee over crackers and spread evenly with a spatula. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until toffee bubbles all over.
  4. Remove from oven. Sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over hot toffee. Let sit for 2 minutes, then spread melted chocolate into a smooth layer. If chips resist melting, return pan to oven for 1 minute.
  5. Scatter mini marshmallows over chocolate. Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs, festive sprinkles, flaky salt, or chopped nuts if desired.
  6. Switch oven to broil. Broil pan for 1-2 minutes, watching closely, until marshmallows puff and turn golden brown. Alternatively, use a kitchen torch to toast marshmallows.
  7. Let pan cool at room temperature for 30-40 minutes, then transfer to freezer for 15 minutes for easy cutting.
  8. Lift toffee out using parchment overhang. Cut or break into squares or pieces. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

For gluten-free or vegan adaptations, use gluten-free crackers, dairy-free butter, and vegan chocolate/marshmallows. Watch toffee closely to prevent burning. Chill before cutting for clean squares. Store in airtight container at room temp for up to 5 days, refrigerate for 2 weeks, or freeze for longer storage.
