Hi lovelies! Today’s Spring Desserts post is a touch more Summery than Spring, but hey s’mores are good year round, amiright?! This cake is layered in chocolate marshmallowy goodness! Yellow cake topped with melted chocolate, ground up graham crackers and toasted marshmallows. Get ready for it!
S’mores Poke Cake
I made this beauty for Easter and it sure hit the spot! Like I’ve mentioned in the past, I used a box cake mix for this recipe. I just personally love how they taste but feel free to use your own cake recipe and then add the toppings!
- 1 yellow box cake mix, plus ingredients for cake
- 2 Cups chocolate chips (I used milk chocolate)
- 1 sleeve honey graham crackers, crushed into large crumbs
- ½ bag of large marshmallows
- Make cake to directions on package in a 13×9 inch pan. Let cool on wired rack.
- Using the end of a wooden spoon or other utensil, poke holes in the cake all over.
- Melt chocolate in microwave safe bowl. Pour over cake concentrating on the holes. Spread evenly on top of cake with spatula.
- Place graham cracker crumbs on top of cake evenly.
- Cut marshmallows in half and lay on top of marshmallows.
- Place into oven under the broiler and watch closely until marshmallows are browned to your liking. Serve immediately while still warm, enjoy!
Step by Step Directions
Make cake to directions on package in a 13×9 inch pan. Let cool on wired rack. Using the end of a wooden spoon or other utensil, poke holes in the cake all over.
Melt chocolate in microwave safe bowl. Pour over cake concentrating on the holes. Spread evenly on top of cake with spatula.
Place graham cracker crumbs on top of cake evenly.
Cut marshmallows in half and lay on top of marshmallows.
Place into oven under the broiler and watch closely until marshmallows are browned to your liking.
Serve immediately while still warm, enjoy!
If you let the cake sit too long after browning the marshmallows, you will get a big sticky layer of marshmallows. So, just a warning I would eat it while still warm and gooey!
YUMMY, I hope you liked this one! I don’t think there is much better than a good ole s’mores!

Dana, I love a good poke cake and adore those roasted marshmallows on top of this one! Looks like the perfect treat to eat (with or without a bonfire :)!
I have a feeling this would be a big hit…my boys love marshmallows. I have to hide them if I buy them for something or they disappear before I can use them!
What a great idea! I love s’mores and cake, so why not combine them? You always have such creative and beautiful desserts. I can’t wait to try this one!
