Why You’ll Love This Recipe

I like these s’mores pops because they give me all the flavors of traditional campfire s’mores without the mess. The lollipop stick makes them easy to hold, and decorating them in Halloween colors makes them extra festive. They’re fun to make with kids and can be customized to fit any spooky theme.

Ingredients

(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

Large marshmallows
Graham cracker crumbs
Melting chocolate or chocolate chips
Halloween sprinkles (purple, green, and orange for that Hocus Pocus vibe)
Lollipop sticks

Directions

I start by inserting a lollipop stick into each marshmallow, making sure it’s secure.
I melt the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring until smooth.
I dip each marshmallow into the melted chocolate, letting the excess drip off.
Then I immediately roll or sprinkle the coated marshmallow in graham cracker crumbs.
For the finishing touch, I add colorful Halloween sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
I place the pops on a parchment-lined tray and let them sit until the chocolate hardens.

Servings and timing

This recipe makes about 12–15 pops, depending on how many marshmallows I prepare.

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Chill Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes
Servings: 12–15 pops

Variations

I sometimes drizzle contrasting melted candy melts (like orange or green) over the chocolate for a layered look.
For a nuttier taste, I mix crushed peanuts or almonds with the graham cracker crumbs.
Mini marshmallows on toothpicks work if I want bite-sized party treats.
I’ve also tried sandwiching two marshmallows together before dipping for a double-stacked s’mores pop.

Storage/Reheating

I store the finished pops in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If it’s warm, I keep them in the fridge to prevent the chocolate from melting. These pops don’t need reheating—just enjoy them straight from storage.

FAQs

Can I make these pops ahead of time?

Yes, I usually make them the day before an event and store them in an airtight container. They keep their shape and flavor well.

What kind of chocolate works best?

I like to use melting wafers because they set quickly and smoothly, but chocolate chips work fine if I add a teaspoon of oil to thin them.

How do I keep the marshmallows from sliding off the sticks?

I slightly flatten the end of the stick before inserting it into the marshmallow. This creates grip and helps hold it in place.

Can I make these without graham crackers?

Of course. I’ve substituted crushed Oreos, pretzels, or even festive cookies for a fun twist.

Do these work for party favors?

Yes! I often wrap each pop in a clear treat bag and tie it with a Halloween ribbon—they make adorable take-home treats.

Hocus Pocus-Inspired S’mores Pops are a simple, spooky, and delicious treat I love making every Halloween.
