Hi, Laura here from Left on Peninsula Road. By now, you’ve probably noticed that cute seasonal s’mores are a favorite treat of mine! This spring, add a touch of whimsy to your Easter dessert table with these adorable Easter Chick S’mores.

Wrapped in little cellophane bags, they’d also make adorable party favors for the kids’ table. Be sure to set out some of these cute-as-can-be Bunny-Shaped Crayons for the kids too:)
This sweet and salty s’more goes together a lot like the Spooky Spider S’mores I shared here last fall.
Here’s What You Need To Make an Easter Chick S’mores
- Ritz Crackers
- Large Marshmallows (cut in half)
- Pretzel sticks (2 halves per s’more)
- Yellow Candy Melts (I melted about 3-4 per s’more)
- Orange Candy Melts (just a few cut in slivers for beaks)
- Edible Candy Eyes <click to find them or learn how to make edible candy eyes from Amy at My Name is Snickerdoodle.
How To Assemble Your Easter Chick S’mores
First, melt yellow candy melts according to package directions. Dip Ritz cracker tops (one per s’more) in candy melts. Spread candy melt with knife if necessary. Add edible eyes and a sliver of orange candy melt for beak. Let cool on wire rack or wax paper. If you’re in a hurry, they’ll set faster in the refrigerator.
To assemble an Easter Chick S’more, place half of a large marshmallow, cut-side-down, on a plain Ritz cracker. Heat in microwave on a microwave safe plate until the marshmallow puffs. (Note: Microwaves vary so watch carefully. Mine puffed in about 12 seconds in a 1200 watt oven. Fresh marshmallows puff the fastest.) Quickly add pretzel stick legs and top with a candy-coated Ritz.
If you’d like to add wings to some, use a little extra melted yellow candy to add candy melt halves as pictured.
Enjoy! Happy Spring!!
