Summer in one word. S’mores. You say it and it takes you back to your younger years sitting around a campfire and roasting your marshmallows to perfection. The only thing I don’t love? The mess. Fun until the mama has to clean up all the sticky fingers.

Maybe you don’t have the campfire, but you can still have the s’mores albeit without the mess. Throw out the s’mores sticks and bring out the mason jars, a personal favorite, and you have yourself a little slice of heaven. But for the sake of pleasing others, lets call it S’mores in a Jar. Um, can you say yum?

{s’mores in a jar.}
adapted from the campfire favorite and a cake recipe of paula deen.
serves six.

  • 10 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup flour

    These were quite ooey gooey. What consistency should I be looking for? Should I add baking time for high altitude?

    Hi, I would love to make this dessert. I just have one question, how did you make the marshmallow creme? Thanks!

    Such a yuummmy recipe, but pictured are the 4oz jars and in the recipe it calls for 8oz jars. I am making these for my wedding reception and need to know the size for baking time.

    Can you serve these room temperature? I was thinking of sending them to teachers for appreciation week.

    I absolutely love this idea. And these printables are so cute!

    What size jars should we use?

    these are so cute! I ma going to bew making them for my son’s 2nd birthday. I don’t see where the printable for these are at though, am I just missing it somehow? Thank you!

      Click on the {printable} picture. It should be there! Three choices…your pick!

    Wanting to make these about a week in advance….what do you think? Will that work and I’ll probably want to keep them refrigerated too right?

    • Jessica says

      June 18, 2014 at 12:52 PM

      I would maybe do a 2-3 days in advance. You can make the cake and wait to add the marshmallow topping until right before. They will still be just as yummy!

  10. Matea says

    June 17, 2014 at 2:48 PM

    What a great idea! They look so cute in the jars, too!

  11. Emily J says

    June 17, 2014 at 12:43 PM

    So 6 squares of bittersweet chocolate and 2 squares of semi-sweet are both equal to an ounce? If that’s the case, and it’s equal parts bitter and semi, I would take out the “squares” measurement altogether as that makes it a little confusing. These definitely look yummy though! I’m such a sucker for anything s’mores!

    • Emily J says

      June 17, 2014 at 12:45 PM

      Oh I see now, 6 ounces and 2 ounces. Probably just me that’s confused. 😉

  12. Laura says

    Can this recipe for Smores in a Jar be adapted to a make ahead kind of treat? Thanks

    • Jessica says

      June 18, 2014 at 12:53 PM

      Yep! You can make them a few days in advance and store them with the mason jar lids. Add the marshmallow topping when you are ready to broil and serve.

    What a cool idea! It might not be as easy as campfire s’mores but looks totally worth the effort!
