Frozen, sweet, and delicious, Toasted S’mores Ice Cream Sandwiches. Cinnamon graham crackers sandwiched with vanilla ice cream, rich chocolate fudge sauce, and toasted marshmallows. These swirled s’more ice cream sandwiches are nothing short of delicious. Every bite is layered with toasted marshmallows, fudge sauce, and sweet vanilla ice cream. The perfect summery, extra chocolatey, sweet frozen ice cream treat.
Well, these are fun – sweet, decadent, and just the yummiest – plus they scream summertime. I love them so much!
I’ll be the very first to tell you that I do not love anything with marshmallows. They’ve always been too sweet for me. But a summer s’more? Well, that’s different. Who could ever turn down a classic s’more toasted over an open fire on a summer night?
It’s perfection. So when it comes to marshmallows, I make an exception every so often for a really good summer s’more. They shouldn’t be fancy, they should use Hershey’s milk chocolates, and each marshmallow should always be extra toasty. I like them black all over and the chocolate really melty. This is all key for me.
How do you like your s’mores? I’m super curious now.
I’ve wanted to make and share this recipe for months, so I’m so happy the weather finally turned the corner here. I felt like the time to make these was now. And just in time for the 4th of July too!
Now you all, these are EASY. Just four simple ingredients: vanilla ice cream, chocolate fudge sauce, and graham crackers. Nothing fancy here.
The details
Step 1: toast those marshmallows up
First up, toast your marshmallows. To do this quickly, I use the broiler. Arrange the marshmallows on a baking sheet, then broil until toasted.
My only very important note here is to not walk away from the oven while these toast. Everyone’s broilers cook differently, but in general, a broiler will toast these up FAST. They can go from white to black in seconds, so just watch them very closely.
Once the marshmallows are toasted, let them cool.
Step 2: create the s’more ice cream slab
Line a baking dish with parchment paper, then take your favorite vanilla ice cream and layer it across the bottom of the pan. Drizzle the fudge over the ice cream, then arrange the marshmallows over top. Finish with another layer of vanilla ice cream.
Then FREEZE.
Step 3: if making homemade cookies, do so now
If you want to make your own graham cracker cookies, do so now. I’m providing the recipe I use because I love it so much. If you have time to make them, these cookies are so much better than store-bought. But of course, store-bought graham crackers will be just great too! Use what works best for you.
These are made with butter, molasses, honey, flour, and a touch of cinnamon + ginger. I like to cut the dough into small squares (they don’t need to be exact, but roughly 2×2 inch squares). Then mix together some cinnamon and sugar and sprinkle it over each cookie before baking.
If you’re finding that your cookies are spreading too much while baking, stick the trays of cut cookies into the freezer for 10 minutes prior to baking. I did not have this issue though.
Step 4: sandwich them together
Cut the s’more ice cream into squares and sandwich the ice cream between two cookies. You can eat these immediately, or stack them in the freezer for later!
The cookies are crisp, but with a softer center. I love the warmth the cinnamon adds when topped with the s’more ice cream. It’s unexpected but in the most wonderful way! Every frozen chocolatey bite leaves you wanting another.
You’ll want to have these stashed in the freezer over the next few months. Ice cream every day until the temps dip in September! And of course, these are perfect for the 4th of July festivities!

Repeat with the remaining disk of dough.5. Sprinkle 1-2 teaspoons of cinnamon sugar over the cookies. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Let cool.
Messy, but delicious! I had to add some extra flour to the dough because my mine was too wet.
Thank you so much Rebekah! xT
Made these for girls night in and they were a hit. Definitely make the homemade graham crackefs. They are so easy and make the recipe! I am a chocolate lover so I added some chocolate ice cream in with the vanilla to change it up slightly. These are a make again recipe for sure.
Hi Sabrina! So glad this was a hit for your girl’s night! xT
These are easily one of the best tasting desserts I’ve ever made! Love everything about them. We used store-bought grahams but I
I’ll try making my own next time!
Hi Jennifer,
Thanks so much for giving this recipe a try and sharing your feedback, so glad to hear it was a hit! xx
I was wondering if you could put the dough in the fridge and bake the next day? If so what would be the best method on rolling out the dough after being in the fridge.
Hi Tawni,
Sure, that would be just fine for you to do, I would just bring the dough out of the fridge for a bit before using. I hope you love this recipe! xx
These taste absolutely amazing. The toasted marshmallow layer is next level. I used Trader Joe’s old fashioned graham crackers for a fancier vibe, more like the homemade ones here. My only problem is that I had trouble cutting mine neatly & doing it quickly enough before melting started. So mine are not nearly as pretty but so delicious. Any advice on the cutting would be greatly appreciated!
Hey Melissa,
Happy Monday!!☀️🌊 I appreciate you making this recipe and your comment, so glad to hear that it was a hit! xT
