Gooey. Toasted. Chocolatey. No campfire needed! My No-bake S’mores Cheesecake is an icebox cake that has layers of graham crackers, maple-sweetened cheesecake, rich chocolate, and toasted mini marshmallows. Let the cheesecake set in the fridge and you get a delicious, easily transportable treat that tastes just like a beach bonfire!
1/2cupChopped Chocolate (milk and/or dark chocolate)optional
Instructions
Set aside an 8"x8" glass baking tray, a large rectangular plastic container, or whatever shape container you have on hand (and that is convenient for transporting).
In a large bowl, mix together cream cheese, vanilla, and maple syrup. Add heavy cream. Mix until mixture is smooth and forms stiff peaks. Set aside.
In a small bowl, combine hot heavy cream with chocolate chips (note: heavy cream can be heated in the microwave). Cover and let sit for 5 minutes. Gently stir the mixture until it becomes a homogenous, thick, chocolate ganache.
Assembly
Add a thin layer of the cream mixture to the bottom of a 8"x 8" baking dish (or similar sized dish).
Next, top cream layer with graham crackers until surface is fully covered.
Add a third of your chocolate ganache to the top of your graham cracker layer.
Sprinkle chopped chocolate on top, if desired.
Add half of your cheesecake mixture.
Add toasted marshmallows (either torched before adding or torched in your baking/serving tray.
Repeat process 2 more times. Additional marshmallows, chocolate and graham cracker pieces can be placed on top of the entire thing.
Cover baking dish with plastic wrap and let sit overnight (minimum 6 hours).
Scoop/cut, and enjoy!
Notes
Sofia’s Tips:
This is an easy make ahead dessert!
Chilling this dessert overnight allows the graham crackers to absorb the cream and develop deliciously soft and flavourful icebox cake!
This dessert will be soft and easily eaten with a spoon, like a pudding!
If you're short on time, this dessert can be chilled for 6 hours.
If not using a 8"x8" baking dish, remember that the smaller the container you use, the taller the resulting Icebox cake!
In the refrigerator, this No-Bake S'mores Cheesecake lasts for up to 7 days.
Enjoy!
