Frozen S’mores

These frozen s’mores are a cool and creamy twist on the classic campfire treat. Layers of fluffy marshmallow, rich chocolate pudding, and crunchy graham crackers come together in a frozen dessert that’s perfect for hot days. I love making them when I want the nostalgic taste of s’mores without the fire.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

I love how this recipe keeps all the familiar flavors of s’mores but turns them into a chilled treat. The texture is irresistible—soft, creamy layers between crisp graham crackers. It’s also a make-ahead dessert, so I can prepare it in advance and have it ready in the freezer whenever I need something sweet and refreshing.

Ingredients

(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

• Graham crackers

• Instant chocolate pudding mix

• Cold milk

• Marshmallow creme (or marshmallow fluff)

• Whipped topping (like Cool Whip)

Directions

1. I line the bottom of a baking dish with a single layer of graham crackers.

2. In a mixing bowl, I whisk together the pudding mix and cold milk until thickened, then set aside.

3. In another bowl, I mix the marshmallow creme with whipped topping until smooth.

4. I spread half of the marshmallow mixture over the graham crackers.

5. I spread the chocolate pudding evenly over the marshmallow layer.

6. I add the remaining marshmallow mixture on top of the pudding.

7. I finish with another layer of graham crackers on top, gently pressing them down.

8. I cover the dish and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.

9. Before serving, I cut the frozen s’mores into squares and let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly.

Servings and timing

This recipe makes about 12 servings. I usually spend 15 minutes assembling the layers, and then it needs at least 4 hours in the freezer to set.

Variations

I sometimes add mini chocolate chips or crushed candy bars between the layers for extra texture. If I want a richer chocolate flavor, I use chocolate fudge pudding instead of regular chocolate pudding. For a different twist, I swap the chocolate pudding for peanut butter pudding.

storage/reheating

I store frozen s’mores in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. I don’t reheat them, but I do let them sit out for a few minutes before eating so they’re easier to bite into.

FAQs

Can I use homemade pudding instead of instant?

Yes, I sometimes make my own pudding, but I make sure it’s completely cooled before layering.

Can I make these with real marshmallows?

Yes, I melt marshmallows with a bit of milk to create a spreadable layer, but marshmallow creme is quicker.

How can I keep the graham crackers from getting soggy?

I assemble the dessert just before freezing and serve it within a couple of weeks for the best texture.

Can I use a different type of cookie?

Absolutely, I’ve tried digestive biscuits, vanilla wafers, and even chocolate graham crackers with great results.

Do they need to be thawed before eating?

Not really, I just let them sit for about 5 minutes at room temperature so they’re easier to cut and eat.

Conclusion

These frozen s’mores are one of my favorite summer desserts because they’re easy, nostalgic, and incredibly satisfying. I love how they combine creamy, chocolatey, and crunchy layers in every bite. It’s the perfect treat to keep in the freezer for when I want a quick taste of summer.
