S’more’s Cheesecake

 S’more’s Cheesecake

Who doesn’t love S’mores?  They are one of the first things I think of when summer arrives and I always try to make them at least once or twice during the season.  And when I decided to take my love for s’mores and my passion for cheesecake and create this show stopping no bake dessert for my last cookout, it was no surprise that the room filled with oohs and aahs when I brought it to the table. 

S’more’s Cheesecake

Graham Cracker Crust

2 cups graham cracker crumbs 

¼ cup granulated sugar

½ cup butter, melted

Mix together graham cracker crumbs, sugar and melted butter.

Press on the bottom of a 9 inch spring form pan and up the sides.

Bake at 325 degrees for 10 minutes.  Remove from oven and set aside.

Cheesecake

(2) 8 oz packages cream cheese, softened

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

½ cup cocoa powder

2 cups powdered sugar

(2) 8 oz containers Cool Whip

Heat the semi-sweet chocolate chips in the microwave for about 45 seconds. Stir and continue heating for 15 second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth. Set aside to cool.  

Beat softened cream cheese until fluffy. Add the melted chocolate, the cocoa and the powdered sugar and mix until smooth and creamy. Fold in the whipped topping until well blended.

Spread filling into your spring form pan that has the cooled crust. Refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours.

Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs on top of cake.  Top the cheesecake with the mini marshmallows. Drizzle with chocolate syrup.  Slice and serve!
