4.5 from 64 reviews

S’mores Sweet Rolls are a delightful twist on traditional sweet rolls, filled with rich chocolate and gooey marshmallows for a campfire-inspired treat. These rolls combine the soft, fluffy texture of sweet dough with a melted, indulgent s’mores filling, perfect for a cozy dessert or special brunch.

Ingredients

Scale

Sweet Roll Dough

  • 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 packet (2 ¼ tsp) active dry yeast
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ cup warm milk
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs

Filling

  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips or chocolate chunks
  • 1 ½ cups mini marshmallows
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, softened (optional, for brushing)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: In a large bowl, combine warm milk, yeast, and a pinch of sugar. Let sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy. Add melted butter, eggs, sugar, salt, and flour gradually. Knead until a soft, elastic dough forms. Cover and let rise for 1 to 1 ½ hours until doubled in size.
  2. Roll Out Dough: Punch down the dough and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle approximately 16×12 inches.
  3. Add Filling: Evenly spread the chocolate chips and mini marshmallows over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
  4. Roll and Slice: Starting from one long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log. Cut the log into 12 equal pieces using a sharp knife or dental floss.
  5. Second Rise: Place the rolls cut side up in a greased baking dish about 9×13 inches. Cover with a clean towel and let rise for another 30-45 minutes until puffy.
  6. Bake the Rolls: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Optionally brush the tops with softened butter for a golden finish. Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and the filling is melted and gooey.
  7. Cool and Serve: Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving to avoid burning from the hot marshmallows and chocolate. Enjoy warm for a perfectly gooey s’mores experience.

Notes

  • Use mini marshmallows for even distribution and better melting inside the rolls.
  • For extra gooeyness, add more marshmallows on top before baking.
  • You can substitute chocolate chips with chopped chocolate bars for chunkier bites.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat gently before serving.
  • For a variation, add crushed graham crackers sprinkled on top before baking for extra crunch.
