Ingredients & Substitutions

• Cream Cheese: Adds a creamy texture to the marshmallow layer.
• Marshmallow Fluff: Provides the sweet, gooey texture similar to roasted marshmallows.
• Instant Chocolate Pudding: Creates a smooth, chocolatey layer that mimics melted chocolate.
• Graham Crackers: Classic s’mores wouldn’t be complete without them! You can substitute with chocolate graham crackers or another favorite type.

How to Make Frozen S’mores

1. Prepare the Pan: Line a 9×13-inch (23×33 cm) pan with parchment paper, ensuring the paper extends up the sides for easy removal.
2. Make the Marshmallow Layer: In a medium bowl, mix the room-temperature cream cheese, marshmallow fluff, and cool whip. Spread this mixture evenly into the prepared pan.
3. Make the Chocolate Pudding Layer: In a separate bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and milk for about 2 minutes, or until thickened. Pour the pudding over the marshmallow layer.
4. Freeze: Place the pan in the freezer for approximately 4 hours, or until the layers are firm enough to cut.
5. Add the Graham Crackers: After the layers have frozen, remove the pan from the freezer. Break the graham crackers into 24 squares. Place 12 squares on top of the frozen layers.
6. Flip and Top: Lay a cutting board or another baking sheet on top of the graham crackers, and carefully flip the pan over. The graham crackers will now be on the bottom. Place the remaining 12 graham cracker squares on top, creating a s’mores sandwich.
7. Cut and Serve: Slice into 12 squares and enjoy cold! Store any leftovers in the freezer.
