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.
Ok, I think this is one of those super simple recipes that can be overthought. I went through and read the comments because I had a few questions I was hoping might be answered by readers. I was questioning the parchment paper. …was it to go up the sides or stay in just the bottom? …was the ice cream supposed to cover the chocolate sauce and marshmallows completely. I then realized, “It’s S’mores!” Get messy, don’t worry about it, and have fun!” Now in the freezer for the 4th of July! Will report back.
Thank you, Tieghan, for giving us great recipes and a form to share our opinions. Wishing you and your family a wonderful Holiday..
Hey Kym,
Happy Monday!!🇺🇸😎 I appreciate you making this recipe and sharing your feedback, so glad to hear it was a winner! Lol love this! xT
“Just four simple ingredients: vanilla ice cream, chocolate fudge sauce, and graham crackers.”
1+1+1 = 3.
Yes, we should definitely not read the recipe and completely ignore the fact that there’s marshmallows in it, and she couldn’t have possibly left that out of the list by accident because that would be absurd 🙄🙄🙄
Plus marshmallows. That’s 4. Go back to remedial math class, Count.
Made these for my sister-in-law. She loved them! My only tip would be to butter my finger tips or spatula if using, before working with the toasted marshmallows as I did have trouble with them sticking terribly to my fingers and had trouble getting them to adhere to the ice cream. Will def do again and next time I will make a few for myself using gluten-free grahams so I can try them. Fun, festive treat.
Hi Cari,
Wonderful!! I’m so glad to hear that this recipe was a winner, I appreciate you making it and your comment! xx
Great recipe! Turned out really well. Thanks for sharing this. I bet it would be good to top off the ice cream with a little sea salt too.
Hi Mel,
Awesome!!😎 Thanks so much for giving this recipe a try and sharing your feedback, so glad to hear it turned out well for you! xT
I made these this weekend for a family dinner. I used storebought cinnamon graham crackers, and they were fabulous! Everyone raved! A really yummy dessert that doesn’t require hours to make. Be sure to follow the advice to stay next to the oven while the marshmallows broil, it does go really fast!! ( I might use more fudge next time 🙂
Hi Amy,
Amazing!! Thank you so much for trying this recipe and sharing your feedback, I’m so glad to hear it turned out well for you! xT
I LOVE THESE! I had zero issues with the marshmallows, I followed your instructions and they were perfect. I literally stood at the oven with the door cracked and as they toasted I pulled them out and rolled them to toast the other sides. No sticking, no problem. I made the graham crackers according to your recipe, the flavor was perfect, but I think two by two inches is too small. I expected them to spread a bit more but they didn’t. I went an inch bigger for the next batch and they were the perfect size. They are totally worth making and made these sandwiches a game changer. I did add a peanut butter swirl to the ice cream along with the fudge and marshmallows, cuz I’m that kinda girl, otherwise everything was your recipe and they were a huge hit! Thank-you!
Also, I did not use any parchment or foil at all on my sheet pan and had no problem with clean up. Soaked the pan and the one or two marshmallows that leaked came right off.
Hi Tanya,
Happy Monday!! Thanks so much for trying this recipe out, I love to hear that it turned out well for you! Thanks so much for your kind message and your tips for what worked best for you:) Have a great week! xT
This was the messiest recipe I have ever made – they don’t make non-stick parchment paper so trying to get the marshmallows off the sheet was ridiculous. I’ll wait four hours to give a final review – I have no doubt they will be delicious, but holy goo, Batman.
So it’s been 8 hrs – ice cream still has not set. I went ahead and attempted to make the sandwiches – tried one and as expected it is very good. This is what I would change – use mini marshmallows in a glass 9×13, toast (really takes less than a minute). Cut marshmallows with a knife when cooled (the size of your sandwiches). Let ice cream soften slightly then layer over cooled marshmallows in the same 9×13 – drizzle liberally with fudge/chocolate sauce. Let freeze overnight in a deep freeze. Skip the parchment paper entirely – mine did not burn under the broiler, but there is really no need for it in any step. Expect this to be an ooey-gooey mess. Another option – buy Rocky Road ice cream and make sandwiches with it. Or spread marshmallow cream on each graham cracker instead of toasting. Great idea, but execution is lacking.
Sounds like you are just an awful cook. Maybe find a new hobby?
Hi Becky,
Thanks for trying this recipe and sharing your feedback, sorry to hear you had some issues. There’s really no reason for your ice cream not to set in the freezer, so I’m not sure why you had issues with that. Again, my apologies for the issues you had. xx
Hi Becky,
Thanks for trying this recipe and sharing your feedback, sorry to hear it wasn’t enjoyed! xx
Name calling because people are questioning Tieghan’s contradicting information from her recipe to her instagram is not a good look for this site. People are allowed to not like a recipe or ask a question. This doesn’t need to be met with the vile comments from her defenders.
You get what you ask for, “Bailey”. Act like a rude insulting jerk, people will respond in kind. The constant daily orchestrated attacks by the same group of morons using multiple screen names are not “questions” about the recipes. Don’t be disingenuous. The fact that you are ok with her constantly being cyber-bullied and are trying (and failing) to justify her attackers’ behavior as acceptable is all we need to know about you. Once again, for the millionth time, if you don’t like the content here, GTFO.
She’s definitely being targeted and the scumbags doing it are very open about it in their public forum. I don’t know why she doesn’t pre-approve comments before publishing. She gives them a platform for their disgusting behavior which is why they keep doing it. Unfortunately, they will never become human, so without some changes to the comment section permissions, their vile attacks will continue.
Funny how there are multiple screen names that are throwing out insults and name calling all within 30-60 minutes of each other. I think someone should seek treatment.
The people bullying T. should definitely seek treatment. They are obsessed. It’s not at all surprising that a lot of people are annoyed.
Imagine how deranged you’d have to be to have a meltdown over parchment paper, and complain about every little thing as if your world was collapsing because you had to wash a pan? The kind of help those miserable folks need, I don’t think treatment could provide. They should step off the internet, though, for sure.
Nobody cares if someone asks a question, but lets be honest about what’s really going on here. There is a little group of hatemongers that heap abuse and insults upon T. on the regular, and rightly so, they are going to get called out for it, and get it back. That’s how it works. If they can’t take it, they shouldn’t dish it out. Read the B.S. comment by that “Ash” b!tch if you want an example. Don’t try to pass that off as “asking a question”. Come on, now.
So tired of all your sloppy posts. You’d think we were following a child’s cooking account. Your IG will show/say one thing, blog says something else and then you’ll also comments something completely different. Do you get tired of lying or are you just use to it by now?
I think you meant to say “used to it.” You might want to think twice before criticizing someone else’s communication when you are an illiterate, petulant, whining ignoramus yourself. I’m tired of your all crappy grammar and your horrible attitude. How’s that? Now go home.
Get a grip, Ash. You are seriously overreacting. Go find something else to do.
Speaking of children, you sound like a bratty ten year old whose parents should be restricting your internet access.
How long can these be frozen?
Hi there,
These are great for 3 months in the freezer:) Let me know if you give this recipe a try, I hope you love it! xx
Which Fudge Sauce recipe of yours do you recommend if we wanted to use that instead of store bought?

Let me know if you give this recipe a try, I hope you love it! xx
This fudge sauce is delicious! Made the IC cake in this link last week, and it was a hit. Will definitely make this fudge sauce for these IC sandwiches, as well. Can’t wait to try them. Thanks for this recipe!
Thanks so much Anita! Love to hear you have been enjoying the fudge sauce:) I hope you love the ice cream sandwiches! xx
Yum! I’d highly advise putting parchment paper under a broiler even for 1 minute – I’ve done it and had a fire to put out! Nonstick tinfoil works really well.
Thanks Sara! You are not putting parchment paper under the broiler in this recipe though:) Let me know if you give them a try! xx
Oh, well you showed them on parchment in your insta stories and that’s what the recipe said to do before you edited it.
Did you seriously give this recipe 1 star review because of parchment paper? Or did you actually try it and not like it. Because if it’s about the parchment paper, that’s not really helpful for those of us that want to actually make it.
So the 5 star ratings that say “it looks yummy, can’t wait to make it “ are helpful?
Calm down. Sounds like you’re really looking for something to complain about.
I’m confused. I just watched your stories on Instagram and you clearly put the marshmallows on parchment paper before broiling. Did you make a mistake?
If you weren’t to use parchment or foil, how do you clean them off of the pan? Sounds like a total disaster either way.
You’re definitely confused, I’ll give you that. You also sound like a complete disaster yourself. Your inability to comprehend how to make a simple recipe is one thing, but your relentless nitpicking under various pseudonyms on this site is clearly an illness. Get help.
Please feel free to use foil or parchment paper to your liking for roasting the marshmallows:)
You caused a fire but you would “highly advise” to use parchment paper under a broiler? Are you insane?
I put my marshmallows on parchment for 2 minutes under the broiler and had no issues at all. Marshmallows were perfect and did not stick to the pan and parchment was absolutely fine. If you don’t like the cook or recipes, why are you here? Odd behavior…
I am 40 weeks pregnant and I think I know what I am making this weekend to pass the time and have stashed in my freezer once baby arrives!!
Lol love this Jackie!! Wishing you all the best:)
This looks amazing. Is there anything special we need to do to the baking sheet for the marshmallows? I feel like they will stick to the baking sheet as they melt.
Hi Sarah,
I left my baking sheet empty, just popped the marshmallows on there. Let me know if you have any other questions, I hope you love this recipe! xx
You’ll definitely want to use something like parchment paper or foil. Unless you want to scrub your pan for an hour. Tieghan used what looks like parchment paper on her instagram stories. So not sure why she is recommending to use nothing
You have some serious issues, “Jill”. You are way too triggered and combative about absolutely nothing. Get out, touch grass, get a life.
Ok “Margo”. I have a great life, thank you :). I just hate liars. But you do you, and have fun scrubbing your pan 😉
I have a great life, thanks! Your hate sounds like a disease that’s eating you up inside though. Sorry to hear that you are so miserable. But yeah, holy triggers, look at you. I had zero issues with the recipe, no pan scrubbing required, but your aversion to washing dishes makes you sound lazy as well as neurotic and hateful. Bad combo.
Nobody is lying to you, miss. Why do you have to make it about you? Figure out how to prepare your own recipe and do it how you like. No need to make a spectacle of yourself. You aren’t that important.
Just an idea, but how about smores ice cream but with the graham crackers broken up and folded in. It’s scoopable and neater to eat then.
Hi Laura,
Feel free to do that to your liking:) This is more of an ice cream sandwich, not just ice cream. Happy Friday! xx
