Mini S’mores Tacos: The Dessert You Didn’t Know You Needed (But Totally Do)
Okay, so here’s the deal: regular s’mores are great and all, but they’re messy. Like, “why is there marshmallow in my eyebrow” messy.
Mini S’mores Tacos? Same deliciousness—less chaos. Plus, they look cute enough to make Pinterest cry happy tears.
Imagine this:
- A mini taco shell made from a sweet graham cracker “tortilla”
- Filled with gooey toasted marshmallow
- Loaded with melty chocolate
- Topped with crushed grahams and maybe a chocolate drizzle—because you’re dramatic and you should be
This is not a drill. It’s dessert innovation. And yes, they’re as fun to eat as they are to make.
Why Make S’mores… as Tacos?

Well, let me ask you this:
Do you enjoy holding delicious things in your hand and eating them in two bites?
Exactly.
S’mores tacos are:
- Portable
- Shareable
- Kid-friendly
- A major crowd-pleaser
And honestly? Regular tacos are great. Sweet tacos? Legendary.
What You’ll Need (You Probably Already Have This Stuff)

We’re not reinventing the s’mores wheel—just reshaping it.
For the taco shells:
- Graham crackers
- Milk (just a splash)
- Optional: butter and sugar to brush and toast the shells
For the filling:
- Mini marshmallows (or full-size ones cut in half)
- Chocolate chips, chunks, or bars (whatever melts)
- Optional: peanut butter, Nutella, or Biscoff (for those with zero chill)
Toppings (a.k.a. the fun stuff):
- Crushed graham crackers
- Chocolate drizzle
- More mini marshmallows
- Sprinkles (because why not)
Let’s Make Mini Dessert Tacos (No Grill Required)
1. Make Your “Taco Shells”
Break graham crackers into squares. Soften them slightly by brushing with a tiny bit of milk, or microwaving for 5–8 seconds to make them bendable. Gently fold them into a taco shape and prop in a muffin tin or between the cups of an upside-down egg carton.
Toast in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5–7 minutes to crisp them back up.
FYI: This part can be slightly chaotic. Some might crack. That’s okay. Ugly tacos still taste amazing.
2. Fill With Chocolate + Marshmallows
Once your graham taco shells are shaped and cooled, fill each one with:
- A few chocolate chips or chunks
- A few mini marshmallows
Pop them under the broiler for 1–2 minutes, just until the marshmallows start to puff and brown. Watch them like a hawk—broilers are sneaky and will burn your perfect tacos in a heartbeat.
3. Optional Add-Ins
Want to go wild? (Of course you do.)
Try:
- A thin smear of Nutella or peanut butter on the bottom of the shell
- A sprinkle of sea salt on top for that sweet-salty magic
- A touch of caramel sauce for a s’mores-meets-millionaire’s-shortbread vibe
4. Top and Serve
Let the tacos cool for 1–2 minutes. Then finish with:
- Crushed grahams
- Chocolate drizzle
- Mini marshmallows or sprinkles
Serve immediately. Or hoard them. Whatever. You’re the boss here.

Variations to Keep the Party Going
- S’mores Tacos à la Mode: Serve with a scoop of ice cream. Because why stop now?
- Mint Chocolate Version: Add mint chips or Andes mints for a cool twist
- “Campfire” Tacos: Torch the marshmallows with a kitchen torch for that smoky, toasted finish
- PB S’mores Tacos: Use peanut butter instead of chocolate (or in addition to, let’s not be monsters)
What If You Don’t Have Graham Crackers?
Fear not. Improvise like a dessert MacGyver:
- Use digestive biscuits if you’re in the UK
- Try waffle cone pieces softened and folded
- Use vanilla wafers and serve flat like taco “boats”
Or… skip the taco folding and just make s’mores nachos by breaking crackers into chips and layering the toppings. You’re still a genius either way.
FAQ: All Your Mini Taco Questions, Answered
Q: Can I make these ahead of time?
Sort of. You can prep the shells and the fillings ahead, but don’t broil them until just before serving. That gooey marshmallow magic fades fast.
Q: Can I use marshmallow fluff?
Yep. It won’t toast like mini marshmallows, but it spreads easily and tastes just as sweet. Great for no-broiler setups.
Q: What’s the best chocolate to use?
Anything melty. Hershey’s, dark chocolate chunks, even leftover Easter bunnies if you’re desperate. (No judgment.)
Q: Can I make a “healthy” version?
Define healthy. But sure—use dark chocolate, whole grain grahams, and mini marshmallows made from unicorn tears and good intentions. It still counts.
Q: Do I need a broiler?
Nope. You can microwave for a few seconds to melt everything—just be careful, marshmallows expand like balloons in there. It’s science. And chaos.
