Why This Works
S'more Dates combine classic campfire flavors with naturally sweet Medjool dates for an easy dessert that requires no baking.
The dates have a rich caramel flavor that pairs perfectly with marshmallow creme and chocolate. Adding a Biscoff cookie gives each bite a buttery crunch with warm cinnamon spice that complements the sweetness of the dates.
Since the chocolate hardens in the refrigerator, these treats are easy to make ahead for parties, holidays, or whenever you're craving something sweet.
Ingredients Needed
- Medjool dates: Large, soft dates with a naturally caramel-like flavor. Their size makes them perfect for stuffing.
- Marshmallow creme: Creates a fluffy, gooey filling that gives these dates their classic s'mores flavor.
- Biscoff cookies: Adds a crispy texture along with warm caramelized spice. Break each cookie in half so it fits inside the dates.
- Milk chocolate chips or melting wafers: Melted chocolate creates a smooth coating over each stuffed date.
- Coconut oil (optional): Helps thin the chocolate slightly for easier drizzling and a smoother finish.
- Crushed Biscoff cookies (optional): Sprinkle over the chocolate before it hardens for extra crunch and a beautiful presentation.
How to Make Smore Dates
Slice each Medjool date lengthwise, leaving one side attached so it opens like a pocket. Remove the pit if needed.
Fill each date with about one teaspoon of marshmallow creme. Then press half of a Biscoff cookie into the marshmallow filling.
Place the chocolate chips or melting wafers into a microwave safe bowl. Heat in 20 second intervals, stirring after each interval until smooth. Stir in the coconut oil if using.
Spoon or drizzle the melted chocolate over each stuffed date until the top is covered.
Immediately sprinkle with crushed Biscoff cookies if desired.
Transfer the dates to a parchment lined plate or tray and refrigerate for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the chocolate has completely hardened.
Serve chilled or let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes before enjoying.
Pro Tips for Smore Dates
Use fresh, soft Medjool dates for the best texture. If your dates feel firm, let them come to room temperature before stuffing.
Do not overfill the dates with marshmallow creme or it may squeeze out when adding the cookie.
Allow the melted chocolate to cool for a minute before spooning it over the dates. This helps create a thicker chocolate coating.
For a richer flavor, substitute dark chocolate or semi sweet chocolate.
Sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt over the chocolate before it sets for a sweet and salty finish.
If you want a more pronounced cookie flavor, drizzle a little melted Biscoff cookie butter over the chocolate after it has hardened.
Storage
Store leftover S'more Dates in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
For longer storage, freeze the dates in a single layer until firm, then transfer them to a freezer safe container. Freeze for up to 2 months. Let them thaw in the refrigerator or at room temperature before serving.
Serving Suggestions
Arrange S'more Dates on a dessert board with fresh strawberries, pretzels, chocolate covered almonds, and extra Biscoff cookies.
Serve them alongside coffee, espresso, or hot chocolate for an easy afternoon treat.
Pack one or two into lunch boxes for a sweet snack.
Add them to holiday cookie trays for a fun no bake dessert that stands out from traditional cookies.
These also make a delicious homemade gift when packaged in a decorative tin or gift box.
Recipe FAQs
Yes, but Medjool dates are recommended because they are larger, softer, and easier to fill.
Marshmallow creme works best because it spreads easily and stays soft. Mini marshmallows will not hold the cookie in place as well.
Milk chocolate gives these dates a classic s'mores flavor, but semi sweet or dark chocolate are delicious options if you prefer a less sweet dessert.
