Campfire S’mores Nachos is a 10-minute camping dessert filled with the classic chocolate, graham cracker, and marshmallow s’mores flavors but it’s prepared in a pan and grilled on a grate! Easy to make in the oven or on the stovetop at home too.
Smores Campfire Nachos (Camping, Grill, or Oven)
Our Campfire S mores Nachos are a tasty twist on a traditional savory meal or handheld sandwich, easily made in a disposable baking pan and cooked over the barbecue grill or a campfire grate.
While I love the classic smores camping recipes that call for cooking over an open flame, preparing these dessert nachos in an aluminum foil pan lets you skip the stick (and the mess) and melts the marshmallows with the chocolate on top of the graham crackers.
Get creative with your grilled smores and have fun customizing the fillings for your campfire desserts in foil – pile your pan high with your favorite sweet and salty snacks, fold the contents into a single container, then cook it over the campfire until the marshmallows are brown and the chocolate is melted.
Dig in with a spoon or scoop it (like a s’mores dip) onto the graham cracker segments, this nacho smores dessert is the best way to bake open-faced sandwiches in bulk when you need to feed a crowd.

Campfire S’mores Nachos
Serves — 6
Campfire S'mores Nachos offer a fun twist on the classic camping treat. Customize with your favorite fillings.
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 sleeve graham crackers broken into segments
- 16 snack size Hershey’s milk chocolate bars broken into segments
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 cups miniature marshmallows
- 14 full-size marshmallows
Instructions
- Make a bed of charcoal in either a barbeque grill or a campfire pit with a grate. Allow the bed of charcoal to burn to a nice bed of coal. While you are waiting for the charcoal, put together the s’mores nachos.
- Generously spray an 8×8 disposable baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- Layer ½ of the broken graham crackers in the bottom of the prepared pan.
- Sprinkle ½ of the miniature marshmallows over the broken graham crackers.
- Sprinkle ½ of both varieties of the chocolate layer.
- Repeat the layers of miniature marshmallows, chocolate and graham crackers.
- Place the full-size marshmallows on top of the second layer.
- Tear a piece of foil large enough to cover the baking pan. Generously spray the side of the foil that will be against the marshmallows. Cover the pan with the foil.
- Place the foil-covered pan on the grate over the barbecue grill of the campfire grate. Allow the s’mores to cook for 8-10 minutes. Turn the pan 180° halfway through the cooking time. Be sure to keep a close eye (or nose) on the s’mores to ensure they do not burn. Remove the pan from the grate, and then remove the foil. Serve while nice and warm.
- If you do not have a barbeque grill or are not able to go camping, you can make these Campfire S’mores Nachos in the oven. Put all the ingredients together as instructed above. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Bake uncovered for 5-6 minutes, or until marshmallows are browned, and the chocolate is melted.
