Ingredients
Makes 12 frozen s’mores sandwiches
- 24 graham cracker rectangles (to make 12 sandwiches)
- 2 cups (480ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
- 1 can (7 oz / 200g) marshmallow creme (or fluff)
- 1/2 cup (60g) powdered sugar (optional, for extra sweetness)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 6 oz (170g) milk chocolate or semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
(or 12 thin chocolate squares)
Optional add-ins:
- Mini chocolate chips
- Crushed graham crackers for coating
- A drizzle of melted chocolate on top
Preparation Time
- Prep time: 15 minutes
- Chill/Freeze time: 4–6 hours
- Total time: About 4–6 hours 15 minutes
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Whip the Cream
In a large bowl, beat cold heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add vanilla, salt, and powdered sugar (if using), then beat until stiff peaks form.
Step 2: Fold in Marshmallow Creme
Gently fold marshmallow creme into the whipped cream until smooth and fluffy. Try not to overmix—this keeps it light.
Step 3: Assemble the Sandwiches
Lay out 12 graham crackers on a tray. Spoon or pipe a thick layer of the marshmallow cream mixture onto each one.
Top with chopped chocolate (or place a thin chocolate square on top of the filling).
Finish with the remaining 12 graham crackers to make sandwiches. Press gently to seal.
Step 4: Freeze
Place the tray in the freezer for at least 4–6 hours (or overnight) until firm.
Step 5: Serve
Let frozen s’mores sit at room temperature for 1–2 minutes before eating for the best bite.
