Easy No Bake S'mores Cheesecake Recipe
The weather has been crazy lately, hasn't it?! It's hot then cold then hot then rainy then cold... Pick a condition! Last weekend we got all ready for the boys' soccer game (which is no easy feat with three small children!), but by the time we got there, it was pouring rain and the game was cancelled!
Apparently, the boys felt that it was my fault that it was raining too hard to play soccer that day, so tantrumming ensued. Determined to still have a fun day despite the rain (and the tantrums), I remembered a classic favorite that was going to turn this day around. S'mores! S'mores are such a great way to have fun and make memories with kids. I have so many Summer family memories with s'mores with camping and cookouts and parties, but you don't have to wait for the perfect sunny day or cookout to make s'mores! You can make s'mores any time, especially with this easy No Bake S'mores Cheesecake recipe! You can make the whole thing, top to bottom in just 10 minutes!
So we headed to Walmart to pick up our supplies to make our easy No Bake S'mores Cheesecake, like Hershey's Milk Chocolate Bars, Honey Maid Graham Cracker Squares, and Kraft's Jet-Puffed Marshmallows, along with cream cheese, powdered sugar, and butter.
When we got home, we got all our ingredients ready for our S'mores Cheesecake. I like to start by lining my cake pan with foil because, frankly, I hate doing dishes. Less clean-up is always a win in my book.
The kids love to help make this recipe, and since there's no baking it's a great opportunity for them to get busy in the kitchen. The kids and I had so much fun together, and we absolutely loved our chocolate-y marshmallow s'mores cheesecake.
When you're done whipping up this tasty s'mores treat, you can eat it right away while the chocolate and marshmallows are still melted and gooey (yum!) or you can chill it in the refrigerator until completely set (at least 2 hours).
What's your favorite way to eat S'mores?
Easy No Bake S'mores Cheesecake Recipe
No Bake S'mores Cheesecake
Ingredients
For the Graham Cracker Crust
- 13-14 full sized graham crackers (makes about 1.5-2 cups crumbs)
- ½ cup butter melted
For the Cheesecake
- 16 ounces cream cheese softened (two 8-ounce packages)
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 2 cups marshmallows (about 24 marshmallows, softened)
- 3 Hershey's Milk Chocolate Bars
Instructions
- Line a 9-inch cake pan. Set aside.
- Place graham crackers in a food processor and process until they're fine crumbs.
- Place the melted butter in the food processor with the graham cracker crumbs and process again until combined.
- Pour graham cracker mixture into a lined 9-inch pie or cake pan. Spread evenly and press the crumbs down with a flat-bottomed glass to flatten into a crust.
- Put the crust in the freezer while preparing the cheesecake filling.
- Soften the marshmallows by placing them in a microwave-safe bowl and microwaving for 30-45 seconds.
- Place the cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla, and softened marshmallows in your food processor, and process until smooth and creamy.
- Remove the crust from the freezer, and pour the filling onto the crust. Spread evenly.
- Place the chocolate bars in a microwave-safe bowl, and microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate is melted, smooth, and creamy.
- Pour the melted chocolate over the cheesecake filling in a spiral pattern.
- With a butter knife or spatula, swirl the chocolate in with the marshmallow cheesecake filling. I just swirled it vertically, then went back and did it again horizontally.
- Eat it right away while the chocolate and marshmallows are still melted and gooey OR chill it in the refrigerator until completely set, at least 2 hours.

I don't have a food processor }:
Michelle says
Oh no! A food processor is actually a pretty cheap kitchen appliance. You can get one for just $20-$30. (This is the one I have). A blender or something like a magic bullet also work similarly.
But if you don't want to purchase a food processor, you can always put the graham crackers in a plastic bag and smash them with a rolling pin or another heavy object. Then just stir in the butter. And you can mix the cheesecake filling together with a hand mixer. It might take just a few minutes longer, but this cheesecake is worth it! 🙂
diane says
i am going to try and make small ones in cups for a party love this recipe thank you
Michelle says
That's such a fun idea!
breanne says
Where are the amounts of each ingredient?! This looks so good but I can't find how much of everything to use! Thanks:)
Michelle says
The full recipe with list of ingredients and amounts is at the very bottom of the post. Right above the comments here.
Laura says
I made this last night and while it was good, I think the 3 sleeves is way too much graham crackers. I mixed all of them but I only used about half of that mixture for my 9" pie pan and that was even too much. I also think that two blocks of cream cheese was too much and that one would suffice. I'm definitely going to try this one again but I think I'll halve about every ingredient.
Anna @ Anna Can Do It! says

Gillian Bellshaw says
Aww this is all for the U.S.A market and I am in Scotland , we do have Wallmart (Asda) but dont recognise Honey Maid Graham Cracker Squares, or Kraft’s Jet-Puffed Marshmallows or even Hershey’s Milk Chocolate bars We have other marshmallows and chocolate though. Please could I ask is powdered sugar the same as icing sugar ? sorry to be so stupid but this looks sooooo good
Michelle says
I'm not sure if powdered sugar and icing sugar are exactly the same, but I know they are interchangeable. So you can certainly use the icing sugar instead. Hope that helps!
Kourtney says
Looks so good! I'm planning on making this for my husband for Father's Day. But since I'll have a little one in the kitchen with me, would I be able to skip a step and buy the premade graham cracker crust?
Michelle says
Certainly!
T says
Could you use marshmallow cream instead of melting marshmallows? Just seems like it would save a step but I'm not sure if texture etc would be different. Thanks!
Michelle says
I've not tried it, but it might work okay. Let me know how it turns out if you go for it!
Allison says
YUM!! So simple and delicious & a huge hit with everyone, would definitely make again! Thank you for the awesome recipe 🙂
Benazir says
Can I use normal marshmallows instead f jet puffed?
Michelle says
Yes, any marshmallows will work
Amy says
Your S'more cake cheese cake looks wonderful. I will be trying this and I know it won't last long. Thank you for sharing!
Chantal says
I made this cheesecake 3 times already for my son he totally loves it. The only thing I change is the crust i make it with oreo cookie crumbs instead. Today i made a double batch of it because my son is bringing it to work for his bday.
Michelle says
Ooooh. The Oreos do sound good!
Cindy Rooney says
What if you don't have a food processor
Michelle says
You can grab a cheap one like this one for $16.99 from Amazon which is actually the same one I have. Or you can try to do it by hand.

Trina says
I am going to make this tonight, however, I have a question, what size of marshmallows did you use in this recipe?
TIA!
Michelle says
The jumbo size.
Mariluz says
Can these be made ahead of time and frozen. We have a group camping trip coming up and would like to bring them for the potluck. However, I don't want to be making them while out camping as there are going to be about 50 people there. Thinking of making minis and freezing them. Thoughts? Will give a rating once I've tried them, but I'm sure it will be a 5/5.
Michelle says
I've never frozen them, but it would probably work. Depending on how far in advance you make them, you could also just refrigerate them. They'll stay firm and fresh in the fridge or a cooler when you bring them.
Tracy says
Could I use one 8oz cream cheese for the no bake cheese cake? Will it still be as good then with two? Thanks
Michelle says
No, that won't be enough.
