A simple treat that can be dressed up or dressed down for any occasion! Homemade Chocolate Covered Graham Crackers are incredibly easy to make and even easier to eat. They make a perfect gift for loved ones!
Chocolate covered graham crackers may just be one of my favorite holiday treats. I don’t know what it is about them, but they just bring me so much joy!
I do recommend topping the grahams with a little extra sparkle of sprinkles or chopped peppermint candies. But if you’re a minimalist, a sprinkle of sea salt will transform these everyday pantry ingredients into a sophisticated coffee time treat.
Chocolate Covered Graham Crackers, No Bake Recipe
I’ve tested a few different chocolates for this recipe and my favorite is a bar of baking chocolate. This is the brand I used.
I like the way it melts. It coats the graham crackers with a nice even, thin layer, and it sets up really firm.
However, if you can’t find the baking bars, chocolate chips totally work in this recipe too! If you have it, I recommend adding 2 tablespoons of coconut oil to 2 cups of chocolate chips for the coating. It coats the grahams easier and cuts the richness of the chocolate chips a bit.

If you don’t like the taste of coconut oil, you can just use straight chocolate chips or dark chocolate flavored melting wafers too!
To dip the crackers, remove a sheet of graham crackers from the package and carefully break in half to make two squares.
Once the graham cracker looks fully coated, lift out of the bowl with a fork and allow the excess chocolate to drip off back into your dipping bowl. Also give the graham cracker a little jiggle while it’s sitting on the fork to get even more chocolate off and to smooth out the top.

Gently set the graham cracker down onto a parchment lined sheet pan and repeat the dipping and jiggling process until you run out of grahams and chocolate.
After an hour or two, remove from the fridge and allow to set completely at room temperature, loosely covered or even uncovered, overnight before packaging or storing.
You can definitely leave your chocolate covered graham crackers pure and add a touch of sea salt to the top. But if you wanted to really jazz them up to make a fun snack for the kiddos or to make a really special gourmet treat for a loved one, here is a list of topping suggestions that will make these treats extra special:

After the chocolate has completely set, your chocolate covered graham crackers can be packed into cute cellophane bags for gift giving or packed in a cookie tin!
If you are keeping these for yourself (and you totally should), store them in an airtight container, with some parchment or muffin liners in between each graham.
Chocolate covered grahams will be ok to leave at room temp if your house is not particularly hot (above 70). If you’re living in a warm or humid climate, keep these guys in the fridge.

If storing on the counter, these guys may start to bloom (little spots start to show up) around day 3. This is completely normal for chocolate that isn’t tempered. There is nothing wrong at all with your grahams, and they’ll still taste delicious! Storing in the fridge may help to slow this process!
Tip #1- Make sure you let that chocolate set! Like really, really set. We’re not tempering our chocolate here, so it really needs time to firm up enough to where it won’t melt all over your fingers. I recommend letting these crackers set overnight.
I actually chill my crackers immediately after they’re dipped for an hour or two and then let them sit out overnight on the counter, lightly covered, to fully set to my room temperature conditions.

You can totally let them sit in the fridge overnight to set too. I did find that when they came up to room temp, the chocolate got a little soft, but then harden right up after a couple hours.
Tip #2- Make sure to shake off as much excess chocolate as possible. After dipping your graham crackers in your chocolate, allow the excess chocolate to drip back into your dipping bowl. Make sure to give your graham cracker a little jiggle while you’re lifting it out of your melted chocolate too. This will get off even more excess chocolate and it will smooth out the top of your graham cracker, making it look nice and even.
Tip #3- Allow your grahams to set on parchment paper or wax paper. Don’t put the chocolate on a sheet pan directly or on a cooling rack. You may run into some sticking issues.
Best Chocolate Covered Graham Crackers Recipe
*If your chocolate starts getting too thick or hard to work with during the dipping process, remelt over a pan of hot water until the chocolate thins out and loosens back up.
**For White Chocolate Flavored Grahams- replace the semisweet chocolate with 4 cups of white chocolate flavored or vanilla melting wafers. Follow the same melting and setting instructions as listed above.
