Ever roasted marshmallows by a campfire, seeing them go golden (or sometimes burst into flames) while dreaming of that tasty s'more? These Hawaiian Roll S'mores Sliders bring all that fun with a clever upgrade. Using soft Hawaiian rolls as the foundation, we've created a pull-apart treat that's great for groups and delivers all the sticky deliciousness of classic s'mores in a fresh, exciting way.
When I made these at my backyard party last week, everyone rushed over the second I opened the grill to show the toasty, gooey sliders. The smell of those warm marshmallows brought back childhood memories for all the grown-ups there.
Key Components and Buying Advice
- Chocolate Chips: Pick quality chips that turn nice and melty
- Hawaiian Rolls: Get them fresh for the best sweet foundation

Step-by-Step Cooking Guide
- Get the Rolls Just Right:
- Grab a saw-edge knife for smooth cutting, keep rolls together during slicing, cut across gently, and try to keep everything level.
- Layer Everything Properly:
- Spread chocolate chips evenly, break marshmallow clumps apart, make sure ingredients are well-spaced, don't forget the edges, and think about how each slider will turn out.
- Cook Them Perfectly:
- Keep an eye on how hot things get, keep your grill covered, watch for marshmallows starting to melt, look for rolls turning slightly brown, and take your time - hurrying often means burning.
- Put It All Together:
- Move everything carefully using the foil edges, push tops down gently, cut while they're still warm, and have your serving plate ready.
- Add Final Touches:
- Brush with butter while warm, sprinkle graham bits evenly, add just a touch of salt, and serve right away.
