The image shows several square s'mores pieces stacked on a white plate, placed on a white marbled surface with a blue and white striped cloth underneath. Each s'more has three visible layers: the bottom and top are light brown graham cracker squares with a slightly rough texture, while the middle layers include a glossy dark brown melted chocolate layer and a fluffy white marshmallow layer that has a soft, pillowy look.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Whisk the chocolate pudding mix with 2½ cups of cold milk until the mixture thickens.
  2. Step 2: Line a 9×13-inch baking dish with parchment paper or foil, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy lifting. Spread the pudding evenly in the dish.
  3. Step 3: In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and marshmallow creme together until smooth.
  4. Step 4: Gently fold in the thawed Cool Whip until the mixture is fluffy and well combined.
  5. Step 5: Spread the marshmallow mixture evenly over the pudding layer in the baking dish.
  6. Step 6: Cover the dish and freeze it for at least 6 hours or overnight until the layers are firm.
  7. Step 7: Lift the frozen slab out of the dish using the parchment or foil overhang and slice it into 16 squares.
  8. Step 8: Sandwich each square between two graham cracker squares. Serve immediately or refreeze until ready to enjoy.

Tips & Variations

  • For a richer flavor, try using chocolate graham crackers or add mini chocolate chips between the layers.
  • If you prefer a sweeter marshmallow taste, add a little more marshmallow creme to the cream cheese mixture.
  • Use a sharp knife warmed in hot water to slice the frozen slab cleanly without cracking.

Storage

Store the assembled ice cream sandwiches in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week. To reheat slightly before eating, let them sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes for easier biting without losing their frozen texture.

How to Serve

The image shows six square dessert bars arranged on a white plate resting on a white marbled surface covered partly by a blue and white striped cloth. Each bar has three distinct layers: the bottom and top layers are a light brown graham cracker crust with a dry, slightly crumbly texture, while the middle layers consist of a thick, smooth, dark chocolate layer beneath a fluffy, white marshmallow layer, both clearly stacked one over the other. The bars appear moist, with the chocolate slightly melting into the graham cracker at the base, and the edges of the marshmallow layer soft and pillowy. The photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I make these ahead of time?

What can I substitute for Cool Whip?
