To make this delicious peanut butter and chocolate s’mores bark, watch the following video and follow the step-by-step instructions as outlined below.
Step #1: Gather Your Ingredients
To make this recipe, you’ll need:
- 10 ounce package of semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp peanut butter
- 1/2 cup gluten-free graham crackers, crushed
- 1/2 cup mini marshmallows (I recommend these vegan marshmallows)
Step #2: Melt Chocolate
Melt chocolate over a double boiler or in your microwave in 30 second intervals on medium heat, stirring between each interval.
Step #3: Soften Peanut Butter
Microwave peanut butter for 30 seconds on medium heat just to soften it. Do not scorch it or it will buckle like chocolate.
Step #4: Make Bark
Cover a small baking sheet (11″x7″) with parchment paper, then spread melted chocolate over the top. It doesn’t have to be perfect, just try to spread it as evenly as possible.
Add dollops of peanut butter over the top of the chocolate spread, then use a toothpick to smear the peanut butter and form fun designs.
Top the melted chocolate with crushed graham crackers and mini marshmallows. Use your hands to gently press everything into the chocolate mixture.
Step #5: Chill Bark
Place the bark-coated baking sheet in your fridge for one hour before breaking into pieces and eating.
Store leftover bark in a zip top bag in your fridge. Enjoy!
Fun Gift Idea
A really fun gift idea is to give this peanut butter and chocolate s’mores bark to friends and neighbors, especially for the holidays.
Instead of giving the bark, as is, and worrying about it melting, add all the ingredients to a 16-ounce wide mouth mason jar, and then add a tag with instructions on how to make it.
I found these tree bark pot covers in the Safeway floral department and they made the gift presentation all that much better. Get it? S’mores bark wrapped in tree bark. Love it!

This bark was AMAZING! I’ve made many of bark over the years and this was by far the best. It was so easy and simple but tasted like you spent hours in the kitchen. It was a big hit with the whole family. No one could tell it was gluten and dairy free. I love that there are only 4 ingredients (that I usually have on hand). Already planning on making another batch. Thanks Jenny!!
