Frozen S'mores Bars (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Chocolate Pudding Layer
01 -
1 box (5.9 oz) instant chocolate pudding mix
02 -
2½ cups whole milk
03 -
½ cup whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed
→ Marshmallow Cream Layer
04 -
5 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature
05 -
7 oz marshmallow fluff
06 -
2 cups whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed
07 -
Small pinch of salt
→ Assembly
08 -
24 graham cracker squares (12 crackers broken in half)
# Instructions:
01 -
Set up a 9x13 inch baking dish by lining it with parchment paper. Make sure to leave some paper hanging over the edges - this will be your lifesaver when it's time to lift out the frozen treats later.
02 -
Grab a medium mixing bowl and whisk together your chocolate pudding mix, milk, and that first half cup of whipped topping until everything comes together smoothly. You want it nice and creamy with no lumps.
03 -
Take half of your graham cracker pieces and arrange them in a single layer across the bottom of your prepared pan. Pour that chocolate pudding mixture right over the top and spread it out evenly. Pop it in the fridge to set while you work on the next layer.
04 -
In another medium bowl, beat your softened cream cheese and marshmallow fluff together until they're perfectly smooth and combined. Gently fold in the remaining 2 cups of whipped topping along with that tiny pinch of salt.
05 -
Spread your marshmallow mixture evenly over the chilled chocolate layer. Top with the remaining graham cracker pieces, then cover the whole thing with foil. Into the freezer it goes for at least 6 hours, or until it's firm enough to slice cleanly.
06 -
Use those handy parchment paper handles to lift the whole frozen block onto a cutting board. Using the graham crackers as your guide, slice into 12 neat squares, trimming away any excess filling that squeezes out. Serve immediately while slightly soft, or store in the freezer for later.
# Notes:
01 -
For chocolate lovers, try spreading melted chocolate on the graham crackers before assembly, or use chocolate graham crackers instead of regular ones.
02 -
These frozen treats can be wrapped individually in plastic wrap and stored in freezer containers for up to 2 months.
03 -
If serving from frozen, let the s'mores sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes to soften slightly before enjoying.
