Camping season may be coming to an end but s’mores season runs all year long! This S’mores Cheesecake is a delicious way to enjoy that graham cracker, marshmallow and chocolate combination without the campfire. Not quite as messy as eating a s’mores right off the campfire but just as delicious.
S’mores Cheesecake Recipe:
When melting the chocolate for the frosting and topping, be sure to remove the bowl from the microwave every 30 seconds to stir the chocolate. You want this melted but not hot so don’t heat the chocolate for more than one minute total.
- Crust:
- ¾ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- Cheesecake:
- 3 packages (250 g each) cream cheese, softened
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 4 eggs
- ½ cup sour cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 jar (7.5 oz) marshmallow fluff
- 1.5 cups milk chocolate chips
- Frosting:
- ½ cup vegetable shortening
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 jar (7.5 oz) marshmallow fluff
- 3 cups confectioners sugar (icing sugar)

- Toppings:
- ½ cup mini marshmallows
- 4 ounces Baker's semi-sweet chocolate (melted)
- 1 graham cracker, broken into small pieces

- Crust:
- In a medium bowl, combine crust ingredients (butter, graham cracker crumbs and sugar) until well combined.
