There is something about my childhood and s’mores that makes me smile. Although it is getting warmer outside, we have not started having open fires to make traditional s’mores.
These s’mores pudding cups have all the same flavors of a s’mores cooked over a campfire, but the ease of doing it in the fridge.
Plus you need to make this dessert ahead of time so it is great for serving at a party. Kids will go crazy over their cups of chocolate, graham cracker crumbs and mini marshmallows. Make them in plastic cups and you have little clean up too.
So what are you waiting for, surprise you kids and adults with this super easy s’mores pudding cups dessert? These make a great dessert to compliment a BBQ party too.
How to Make S’mores Pudding Cups
If you don’t have graham cracker crumbs in the box, make them yourself. They will probably be fresher than the opened box in the back of your pantry.
How to Make Graham Cracker Crust Layer?
If you don’t have a food processor, place some whole graham crackers into a ziplock bag, seal shut and using a rolling pin crush the crackers. This is fun for the kids to do too.
How to Assemble S’mores In a Cup
I used chocolate pudding and prepared it per the directions. Then simply layer chocolate pudding, graham cracker crumbs, pudding in small glasses.
Top each cup with a few mini marshmallows. I am talking about the uber small ones.
How soon in advance can I make pudding cups?
Place them in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to set completely and get cold. You can easily make them in the morning or the night before your party.

I love the sweetness of the pudding and the crunchy crumbs of the graham crackers. I don’t have a recipe for this per se but you get the idea.
I used the larger box of pudding and was able to make 5 pudding cups. I also like the clear cups as you can see the great layering of the ingredients.
I LOVE s’mores. Rarely do I get the chance for traditional ones over a bonfire, but I eat up anything with s’mores flavor that I can get my hands on!
I’d add a little Irish Cream for the adults! 😉
Yum! This looks delicious! Saving to make this later!
