The look on my son-in-law’s face when he took a bite – awestruck says it best. Delicious, perfect to just leave on the counter during a family weekend at the cabin.

I have a farmer friend.
His name is Tyler.
Our visit to his farm revealed a few things:
- Farms are pretty.
- Don’t wear sandals on the farm.
- Fainting goats are so weird but hilariously cute.
- I will have a piglet for a pet someday.
- Tyler cooks.
That’s right. Farmer T cooks.
And when Farmer T cooks, he doesn’t forget dessert.
I would go so far as to say that they were the best s’mores bars I’ve ever had, ever, and I don’t take that statement lightly. That’s why I made them myself within 24 hours of returning home, shortly after showering off farm smells and downloading 1,000 pictures of the piglets onto my computer.
These are perfect for summer get-togethers because, simply put, they’re BOMB. I did that just to mess with you, by the way.
The real reason they’re perfect is because everyone loves them, they’re portable, they’re easy to make, and the chocolate doesn’t get all over everybody’s everything, unless you face plant into the pan. Is there anything better in this world than gooey chocolate filling in between crispy cereal and puffy mallows? At this moment, with a s’mores bar in each of my hands, my answer is a resounding no.
Face planting in this would be so amazing right now.

So, where do you buy piglets these days?
Mmmm, I remember having these as a kid. Why haven’t I had them in 20 years?!
Because… um, no good reason. Do it now. 🙂
These sound delightful! Yum!
Thanks Katrina!
Golden Grahams were my FAVORITE cereal growing up! I usually don’t like s’mores, but I might be able to make an exception with these…
Please do. I’ll be so proud. 🙂
I’ve had my eye on those for a long time. Sounds like I need to make it happen.
Make it happen, Karly. Make it happen.
Ok, these look so easy and amazing! Adding Golden Grahams to the grocery list and preparing to face plant… 🙂
FACE. PLANT.
Holy crap, these look awesome!! I love Golden Grahams cereal!
Thanks Emily! I heart GG too! 🙂

Have you ever made them with semi sweet choc. chips?
Hi, Valerie! We have not tried that, but I think they would definitely work. The bars will just end up slightly less sweet than they would with the milk chocolate. 🙂
The old recipe on the box called for semi-sweet and they were so much better! I used milk chocolate this time and was very disappointed.
I have never had s’mores. It’s such a shame. Those look easier to make than to wait for a camping opportunity!
No. Please tell me you’re lying. If you don’t have a campfire where you can make one immediately, you need to make these NOW.
My kids will make s’mores in the microwave in a pimch😘
I made the s’mores, delicious, and wrapped them individually. How long do they stay crunchy without going stale.
I seriously love Golden Grahams. These sound wonderful!
ME TOOOO! I didn’t really know until this week when I bought them and ate them all in one sitting.
We have our own version of this recipe and they are amazing. We usually melt the marshmallow all the way, but yours look amazing. Yum!
This one does both (melts some all the way, saves some for the bars). SO good either way! 🙂
They look so simple but delicious!
Simple is my middle name! 🙂
Ah! These look sort of like Rice Krispies Treats and S’mores got together….one thing led to another…. and a beautiful love child was born. I definitely need to try this with a gluten free cereal! Just bought some Rice Chex…sounds BOMB! Haha
Oh no. Not BOMB. 🙂 But seriously, BOMB.
Golden Grahams is my faaavorite cereal! My mom would always make it into ooey gooey bars and they are seriously the best! Glad to have a recipe 🙂
Ooey gooey is the best thing in life right now. And now you can make them too!
These look divine!
Thanks Liz!
These look crazy good! I once made G.G. smores bars but didnt put chocolate in them other than just choc chips. YOU have the right idea!
Thanks Averie! 🙂 I should throw a handful of chocolate chips next time!!
YUM! These look so gooey and delicious. I have always loved these bars and this version looks particularly fantastic!
Thanks Mercedes! I’ve had many a yummy bar in my day but these ones were seriously ADDICTIVE.
YES to the faceplant. OMG these look so ridiculously delicious. Totally evoking childhood memories….the farm smells would definitely be worth it for these.
Hahahahaha – a fellow face planter. I like.
Lindsay – these look INCREDIBLE! So simple and yet…. soooooo tasty. Who doesn’t love a portable s’more?!
I don’t know, but whoever they are, I’d like to give em a piece of my mind! 😉
I love these! I made them for me and the husband… three times… two straight weeks in a row… And gained a few… But boy they were worth it.
Ha! They’re just classic. Can’t go wrong (even with a pound or two to show for it)!
Fainting goats cracks me up! I can’t do farm smells either, but I can definitely do s’mores in bar form 🙂 Love these!
Seriously. It was hilarious. WHo even knew that fainting goats existed in this world? But they do!
These look to die for! They’d be perfect as a midnight snack.
I can tell you – they are. 😉
Talk about major drool action! Somebody get this girl a bib!
HA!
Portable s’mores are a good thing for me!! (or a very bad one. . .)
Nope – 100% good. 🙂
Can’t wait to make these. My kids think I’m wonderful when I make things with chocolate and sugar : )
🙂 That’s because you are.
Wow, I will definitely be whippin’ those up soon! I love your blog and your pictures are always so gorgeous!
Thank you Brittany!
I think the biggest question is why didn’t you post any of those 1000 piglet pictures?? These look amazing btw 🙂
Oink oink. They were so cute!
