S'mores Crescent Rolls are a warm, gooey twist on the classic campfire dessert that I can make right in my kitchen—no firepit needed. Buttery crescent dough wraps around melted chocolate, toasted marshmallows, and crunchy graham cracker crumbs to create a treat that’s just as nostalgic as it is delicious. These rolls are quick to prepare and always a hit, whether I’m making dessert for the family or a cozy late-night snack.
Why You’ll Love This Recipe
I love how easy and mess-free this recipe is compared to traditional s'mores. I get all the flavor I crave, with soft, flaky dough in place of graham crackers that gives the whole thing a bakery-style feel. The combo of melty chocolate and toasted marshmallow tucked inside the crescent roll is magic. And since it only takes a few minutes to prepare, I can enjoy them anytime without much effort.
Ingredients
(Here's a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
- 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough
- Mini marshmallows
- Milk chocolate chips or chopped chocolate bars
- Graham cracker crumbs
Directions
- I preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- I unroll the crescent dough and separate it into individual triangles.
- On the wide end of each triangle, I place a few chocolate chips, a small handful of mini marshmallows, and a sprinkle of graham cracker crumbs.
- I roll the dough from the wide end to the narrow tip, enclosing the filling as best as I can.
- I place each roll on the baking sheet and bake for 10–12 minutes, or until golden brown.
- After baking, I let them cool for a few minutes so the inside sets a little before serving warm.
Servings and Timing
This recipe makes 8 crescent rolls. It takes about 10 minutes to prep and another 10–12 minutes to bake, so I usually have them ready in under 25 minutes.
Variations
- I like to spread a little Nutella inside before adding the marshmallows for a hazelnut version.
- For a salty-sweet combo, I sometimes sprinkle in a few crushed pretzels.
- I use dark chocolate or white chocolate chips if I want to mix things up.
- When I want a peanut butter s’mores roll, I add a small spoonful of creamy peanut butter with the chocolate.
- A dusting of powdered sugar or a chocolate drizzle on top makes them look and taste extra fancy.
Storage/Reheating
I store leftover crescent rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. When I want to reheat them, I pop them in a 350°F oven for about 5 minutes. A quick 10–15 seconds in the microwave works too, though the rolls will be softer.
FAQs
Can I use large marshmallows instead of mini?
Yes, I just cut them into smaller pieces so they melt evenly inside the roll and don’t ooze out too much.
Can I make these ahead of time?
I find they’re best fresh, but I can roll them and refrigerate them unbaked for a few hours. I just bake them when I’m ready to serve.
Do I need to grease the baking sheet?
If I’m not using parchment paper, I lightly grease the baking sheet to prevent sticking.
Can I use puff pastry instead of crescent dough?
Yes, puff pastry works too—it makes them extra flaky, but it may need a few more minutes to bake.
Can I air fry them?
Absolutely. I cook them in the air fryer at 350°F for 6–8 minutes, checking for doneness around the 6-minute mark.
Conclusion
S'mores Crescent Rolls are one of my favorite quick desserts to whip up when I want something warm, sweet, and nostalgic. They give me all the classic s’mores flavors with less mess and more comfort. Whether it’s a special treat for the kids or a cozy bite after dinner, these little rolls always deliver.
