Description

Frozen Lemon S’mores is a delightful no-bake dessert that layers lemon pudding, whipped cream, marshmallow cream, cream cheese, and graham crackers into a refreshing and tangy treat. Perfect for summer or anytime you want a cool and sweet indulgence, this dessert combines classic s’mores elements with a zesty lemon twist, frozen to a creamy, sliceable consistency.

Ingredients

Base Layer

  • 12 sheets graham crackers (full rectangular sheets)

Lemon Pudding Mixture

  • 6.8 ounces instant lemon pudding mix (two 3.4-ounce boxes)
  • 3 ¼ cups milk
  • ½ cup whipped topping, thawed (such as Cool Whip)

Cream Cheese Layer

  • 8 ounces whipped topping, divided (thawed, save ½ cup for pudding mixture and remaining for cream cheese mixture)
  • 5 ounces cream cheese
  • 7 ounces marshmallow cream

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pan: Line a 9×13-inch baking dish with parchment paper. To help the parchment lay flat, roll it into a ball then flatten it out before placing in the pan. Break the graham cracker sheets into squares.
  2. Arrange Graham Crackers: Lay down 12 square graham crackers evenly in rows on the parchment paper, forming the base layer.
  3. Make Lemon Pudding Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the instant lemon pudding mix, 3 ¼ cups milk, and ½ cup whipped topping until smooth and well blended.
  4. Layer Pudding: Spread the pudding mixture evenly over the graham crackers in the pan. Place the pan in the freezer for 15 minutes to firm up the layer.
  5. Prepare Cream Cheese Mixture: In a medium bowl, using an electric mixer, blend the cream cheese and marshmallow cream until smooth. Fold in the remaining whipped topping with a silicone spatula gently until fully combined.
  6. Top the Pudding Layer: Remove the pan from the freezer and evenly spread the cream cheese mixture over the lemon pudding layer.
  7. Add Second Graham Cracker Layer: Layer the remaining graham crackers in rows over the cream cheese mixture to form the top crust.
  8. Freeze: Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil. Freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight until the dessert is solid.
  9. Serve: When ready to serve, lift the dessert out using the parchment paper and place it on a cutting board. Cut into 12 pieces following the graham cracker squares as guides. Enjoy immediately or store leftovers in a freezer-safe container.

Notes

  • Rolling the parchment paper before placing it in the pan helps it fit better without folding or wrinkling.
  • Use thawed whipped topping for easy mixing and proper consistency.
  • Let the pudding layer chill before adding the cream cheese layer to achieve distinct layers and prevent mixing.
  • Freeze for the full recommended time to ensure the dessert is firm and slices cleanly.
  • Store leftovers in the freezer for up to one week for best freshness.
