S'mores Brownie Pie has a graham cracker crust, a fudgy brownie filling, and a toasted mini marshmallow top. It is the perfect easy pie recipe while also being different and so impressive!
My Brownie Pie is my most popular recipe. You guys love it and I love you for it! So, of course I had to make some variations that are equally as delicious.
Why I love this S'mores Brownie Pie
- It's SO easy! I think one of the reasons that the original version of this pie is so popular is because of how simple it is, and this S'mores Brownie Pie is no exception. You could buy a pre-made graham cracker crust, a box of brownie mix, and a bag of mini marshmallows and call it a day, or make it all from scratch. It is as easy or as simple as you want it to be, while also being guaranteed to be delicious either way!
- It's a classic. S'mores is a classic flavor combination that I am pretty sure every human loves. You literally cannot go wrong with graham crackers, chocolate, and marshmallows.
- It is different. This isn't your everyday pie. If you show up at someone's house with this pie in tow you are guaranteed to make a splash!
- Gooey or fudgy. You get to decide! You can bake the pie for the full amount of time for a more fudgy brownie, or take 5-10 minutes off for a gooey pie.
How to make the best brownie filling
All too often I eat a brownie that is dry and tough. It is such a shame! Brownies are made to be moist, fudgy, and gooey. It is very easy to mess up brownies, but it's also very simple to make them perfect.
- Be careful when mixing. Most of the time brownies are over-mixed. This makes them tough. Make sure you mix the wet and dry ingredients well BEFORE you combine them. When you mix the two you need to mix them until the ingredients are just barely combined.
- Don't overbake. A lot of times people think that a toothpick inserted into the center needs to come out clean. This is not the case! you want there to be a few moist crumbs on the toothpick because the brownies will continue baking when you remove them from the oven.
Ingredients for S'mores Brownie Pie
Ingredients for graham cracker pie crust:
- Graham crackers. They will need to be finely crushed.
- Unsalted butter. I always make sure to use unsalted butter when baking because there is no “standard” for the amount of salt they can add to butter. So if you add salt to a recipe and then use salted butter you could end up with a very salty end product.
- Granulated sugar. Just plain ole white sugar.
- Salt. Salt is a must in baked goods. It will help to balance out the sweetness and improve the overall flavor.
Ingredients for homemade brownie filling:
- Unsalted butter. We will melt the butter for a fudgier texture.
- Brown sugar. Brown sugar will give the brownie filling a softer texture.
- Eggs. It will be easier to incorporate the eggs into the batter if they are room temperature.
- Vanilla extract. Vanilla is a must in baked goods just like salt. Real vanilla adds a better flavor than imitation vanilla.
- All-purpose flour. Measuring the flour correctly is very important. I suggest weighing your flour out (I use this scale). If you want to use a measuring cup, make sure you spoon the flour into the cup and level it off with a knife. Don’t use the cup to scoop directly from the flour
- Cocoa powder. This will give our pie all of the chocolatey flavor.
- Chocolate chips. I always go to semisweet, but you can use whatever type of chocolate you like best.
- Mini marshmallows. These will be placed on top and toasted.

how do you store this later on? Do marshmallows get very hard in the fridge?
Ellie Haley says
I store at room temp! Just wrap it with plastic wrap or foil and it can hold at room temp for a few days
