The first time I tried this twist with my nieces we ended up giggling over the stretchy marshmallow and chocolate streaks on our fingers and it instantly became our family movie night favorite
Ingredients
- Large flour tortillas: give the wrap structure and become golden crisp use fresh tortillas for best results
- Mini marshmallows: melt evenly and create gooey pockets choose pillowy soft ones for maximum melt
- Chocolate: brings rich sweetness opt for bars or good quality chips for best flavor
- Graham crackers: add the signature crunch look for ones that are crisp and not stale
- Butter: helps the crunchwrap toast up golden and adds buttery flavor use real butter for more richness
- Cinnamon sugar (optional): extra for coating turns every bite into a churro like treat
Instructions
- Assemble the Crunchwrap:
- Lay out one flour tortilla on a clean surface You want it flat to hold the fillings Add a generous handful of mini marshmallows to the center leaving about a two inch border so you can fold easily Layer chocolate pieces right on top no skimping Then break up graham crackers and nestle them over the chocolate
- Fold and Seal:
- Gently fold the edges of the tortilla toward the center Overlap each fold and pleat as needed thinking like a paper fan Make sure the fillings are all tucked in Flip it over so the seam is on the surface pressing gently to help keep it closed
- Toast to Perfection:
- Heat a skillet over medium and drop in a pat of butter letting it sizzle Swirl the pan to coat Place your crunchwrap seam side down in the pan Use a spatula to press gently for the first ten to twenty seconds This helps seal those edges Cook for two to four minutes watching for golden brown color
- Flip and Finish:
- Once the first side is crisp flip with your spatula and toast the other side another two to four minutes The wrap should feel crisp and the filling should soften and melt
- Optional Sweet Finish:
- If you want extra sweetness mix some cinnamon sugar in a small bowl Use a little extra butter or a brush of oil on the outside Then roll or sprinkle the wrap in cinnamon sugar for a churro style twist
- Serve Up:
- Cut in halves or quarters if sharing Serve right away warm so the chocolate and marshmallow are at their gooiest
I am always amazed how the marshmallows puff and melt into sweet sticky clouds inside this wrap My younger cousin once called it a magic envelope of memories and I think that captures it perfectly
Storage Tips
S’mores Crunchwraps are at their best served fresh but if you have leftovers cool them completely before storing Wrap them tightly in foil or plastic and keep refrigerated Reheat in a skillet over low heat covered with foil to restore the crunch and warmth It is not recommended to freeze assembled wraps but you can keep ingredients ready for quick assembly
Ingredient Substitutions
You can use dairy free chocolate and vegan marshmallows for an all plant based treat Whole wheat tortillas provide a different flavor and texture Try adding a swipe of peanut butter inside or use cookies instead of graham crackers for extra decadence If cinnamon sugar is not your preference dust with powdered sugar
Serving Suggestions
Serve with fresh berries for a bright pop of flavor alongside the rich filling These wraps pair perfectly with a scoop of ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce For parties cut into wedges and stack them on a platter for shared snacking

Recipe FAQs
- → How do I get the tortilla crispy without burning it?
Cook the wrap over medium heat and use a bit of butter for a perfect golden crust. Monitor closely and flip as soon as edges are golden brown.
- → What type of chocolate works best?
Milk chocolate bars melt easily, but semi-sweet or dark chocolate adds a rich flavor. Use small pieces for even melting.
- → Can I make it ahead?
It’s best enjoyed fresh, but you can prepare the wraps and cook them when ready to serve for optimum texture and gooeyness.
- → Is the cinnamon-sugar coating necessary?
It’s optional, but it enhances flavor with a sweet, spiced crunch on the outside. Brush lightly with butter or oil before coating.
- → How do I keep the filling from leaking out?
Fold the tortilla edges firmly and cook seam-side down first. Press gently while toasting to seal the wrap effectively.
