Frozen S’mores With Cool Whip

Our Frozen Smores recipe is a quick and easy way to transform the classic camping treat into a delicious frozen dessert; no baking, melting, or fire needed.

Prepared with whipped topping combined with both chocolate pudding and a cream cheese marshmallow mixture, the lightened-up chocolate pudding layer is spread above the marshmallow layer and sandwiched between graham cracker squares.

Much like the campfire classic, this no-bake smores dessert has a graham cracker base with chocolate and marshmallow in the middle, but these snacks skip the stick and are frozen in a baking pan, sliced, and served like an individual ice cream sandwich.

When it’s too hot (or cold) outside for cooking over open flames, there’s no reason to miss the fireside fun – this s mores bars recipe simply revises the steps so you can serve your sandwiches any time or season.

Substitutions and Additions

How to Make Frozen S’mores

  1. Prepare The Pan: Lay graham cracker squares in the pan and set aside.
  2. Make The Marshmallow Mixture: Beat the cheese until smooth, then add in marshmallow crème and beat again. Fold in the Cool Whip and spread over the graham crackers. Chill in the fridge.
  3. Prepare the Pudding Mixture: Mix together the milk and pudding powder, then add Cool Whip and mix well. Spread the chocolate over the cream cheese layer, then place a layer of graham crackers on top.
  4. Freeze: Cover and place in the freezer to set for at least 4 hours.
  5. Slice And Serve: Allow the s’mores to sit for 15 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!

Tips For Making The Best Frozen S’mores

  • Make sure to thaw your cool whip in the fridge and let your cream cheese come to room temperature before mixing them with the other ingredients.
  • Line your pan with parchment paper and keep the sides high for easy removal.
  • Don’t worry if the graham crackers don’t stick to the frozen layers right away. Just let them sit for a few minutes to let them soften slightly before serving. 
  • Allow the s’mores to sit for 15 minutes before slicing into individual sandwiches — you’ll want the chocolate frozen layer to soften up a bit.

How to Store Frozen S’mores

  • To Store: To store, tightly wrap each s’more square individually with plastic wrap and transfer to a freezer-safe bag. They will keep frozen for up to 3 months.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I prepare my frozen s’mores in advance?

Yes, you can assemble your frozen s’mores up to 24 hours in advance. When you’re ready to serve them, allow them to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before slicing into individual sandwiches.

Will The graham crackers soften in the freezer?

Yes, the longer your sandwiches sit in the freezer, the softer the graham crackers may become. If you do not like a softer graham cracker consistency, similar to the chocolate outside of an ice cream sandwich, then I do not recommend storing your frozen s’mores for longer than a few weeks.
