Pretzel s’mores are your new favorite road trip snack

If your version of summer includes sitting around a campfire, making s’mores, and telling ghost stories, these easy pretzel s’mores might just be your new favorite treat.

This easy snack recipe is great because you can make it without the campfire whenever the mood strikes. Pretzel s’mores also add a little savory to the sweet because of the salted pretzels, and I think it’s the perfect balance.

They would make great road trip snacks, add them to lunches for camp or school, or enjoy them on your next RV trip.

Ingredients for Pretzel S’mores

All you need are a few basic ingredients and an oven (I prefer my countertop one in the summer). Below is a preview of what you need for this dessert. Please see the ingredients and detailed instructions in the recipe card.

Four bowls containing pretzels, chocolate chips, mini marshmallows, and graham cracker crumbs are arranged on a speckled countertop next to a wooden spatula and a blue plaid cloth.

How to Make Them

Pretzel s’mores are an easy recipe to make with kids, and you don’t even need a campfire. First, preheat your oven to 350°F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

A baking sheet lined with parchment paper holds pretzel rounds topped with melted chocolate and several mini marshmallows on each.

Step 1: Add a layer of pretzels and top each one with 3 mini marshmallows. Bake for about 5 minutes or until marshmallows have softened.

Recipe Tips

Allow to set fully before storing. Pretzel s’mores can be stored on the countertop or in the refrigerator. Enjoy within 5 days if stored at room temperature, longer if refrigerated.
