4.1 from 50 reviews

Easy Viral Smashed Date S’mores are a quick and delicious gluten-free treat that combines sweet Medjool dates, fluffy marshmallow, and rich melted dark chocolate, all layered with crispy gluten-free graham crackers. Perfect for a party snack or a fun dessert, these s’mores come together in just 30 minutes with minimal effort and no open flame required.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 12 s’mores

Ingredients

Dates

  • 12 Medjool dates

Filling

  • ½ cup marshmallow fluff

Crackers

  • 12–15 Simple Mills Sweet Thins or gluten-free graham crackers

Chocolate Topping

  • ½ cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Prep the dates: Line a baking pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Carefully slice each Medjool date lengthwise without cutting through completely, then remove the pit. Open the date and press it flat onto the parchment-lined pan. If needed, place another piece of parchment paper on top and flatten further using the bottom of a glass or a mason jar. Arrange the flattened dates about 2 inches apart to allow room for toppings.
  2. Add the filling: Spread approximately 1 tablespoon of marshmallow fluff evenly over each flattened date. Then press 1 to 2 gluten-free crackers (Simple Mills Sweet Thins or equivalent) gently into the marshmallow layer to create a crunchy center for each s’more.
  3. Melt the chocolate: Place the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring thoroughly between sessions until the mixture is smooth and fully melted, which should take about 60 to 90 seconds in total.
  4. Top with chocolate: Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the melted chocolate over each date, spreading it evenly to cover both the marshmallow and cracker layers completely. For extra texture, sprinkle crushed gluten-free graham crackers over the chocolate if desired.
  5. Chill: Place the pan in the freezer and chill for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the chocolate topping is set and firm. Once ready, remove from freezer and serve immediately. Enjoy your easy, no-bake gluten-free s’mores!

Notes

  • Medjool dates are ideal for this recipe due to their large size and natural sweetness.
  • If you prefer, substitute the dark chocolate chips with milk chocolate or semi-sweet varieties.
  • The flattened dates can be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated until ready to assemble.
  • Freezing instead of refrigerating helps set the chocolate quickly and prevents the marshmallow fluff from becoming too soft.
  • Ensure the crackers used are gluten-free if required for dietary needs.
