No Bake Frozen Smores Cheesecake Food

NO-BAKE S'MORES CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Spray a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray. Combine the sugar and 6 ounces (12 sheets) graham crackers to a food processor and pulse to fine crumbs. Drizzle in the butter and pulse until the crumbs are completely coated and moistened. Firmly press the crumb mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan. Refrigerate while you make the filling.
• Sprinkle the powdered gelatin over 1/4 cup cold water in a small microwave-safe bowl and allow to sit for 5 minutes. Microwave the gelatin in 15-second intervals, stirring or whisking vigorously in between each, until the mixture is very hot and the gelatin has completely dissolved, about 45 seconds total. Allow to cool completely to room temperature.
• Combine the cream cheese, marshmallow creme and a pinch of salt to a large bowl, then use an electric mixer to blend until completely smooth. Add the cooled gelatin mixture and blend until thoroughly combined. Pour into the prepared crust, smoothing out the top with a rubber spatula. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until completely set, at least 6 hours and up to overnight.
• Remove the plastic wrap and place the cheesecake on a cooling rack set over a baking sheet. Run a small offset spatula or paring knife around the edges of the cheesecake to loosen it from the pan, then open the pan's clasp and remove the outer ring. Use the off-set spatula or the back of the paring knife to smooth out the sides of the cheesecake.
• Break 2 chocolate bars into small pieces and add to a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 15 second intervals, stirring after each, until the chocolate is completely melted, about 1 minute total. Drizzle the chocolate back and forth over the top of the cheesecake with a spoon, then place back in the refrigerator until the chocolate has hardened, about 20 minutes.
• Pile the marshmallows on top of the cheesecake. Use a kitchen torch to toast the marshmallows, then break up the remaining graham crackers and chocolate bar into large pieces and stand the pieces up in the marshmallows.
• Allow the cheesecake to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes (so the marshmallows aren't super gooey when you cut into it), then slice and serve immediately.

MAGICAL NO-BAKE S'MORES CAKE

Steps:

• Make the chocolate layer: Whisk together the milk and pudding mix in a medium bowl and allow to firm up according to the instructions on the box.
• Make the marshmallow layer: Beat the marshmallow creme and whipped topping in a large bowl with a mixer until smooth.
• To assemble: Line the bottom of an 8-inch square baking dish with some of the graham crackers, breaking them up if needed to make a single layer. Spread half of the chocolate pudding evenly over the graham crackers. Add another layer of graham crackers to the dish and cover evenly with half of the marshmallow mixture. Repeat these layers ending with the marshmallow mixture on the top. Sprinkle with the shaved chocolate and refrigerate at least 4 hours before cutting and serving.

NO-BAKE MINI S'MORES CHEESECAKES

Steps:

• Microwave chocolate and 1-1/2 cups COOL WHIP (about half of tub) in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 1-1/2 min.; stir until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is well blended. Spoon 1 tsp. chocolate mixture over each crust. Reserve remaining chocolate mixture for later use.
• Sprinkle gelatine over water in small microwaveable bowl. Let stand 1 min.; stir. Microwave 15 sec.; stir until gelatine is completely dissolved.
• Beat cream cheese, vanilla and remaining sugar in large bowl with mixer until blended. Beat in gelatine. Fold in remaining COOL WHIP. Spoon over crusts; smooth tops. Cover with reserved chocolate mixture.

NO-BAKE FROZEN S'MORES CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• For the graham cracker crust: Place the crackers and sugar in a food processor and pulse to break up the crackers, then process continuously until the crackers are crushed into fine crumbs, about 30 seconds.
• Mix the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter together with a rubber spatula until combined. (The mixture will be thick.)
• Spray a 7-inch springform pan with baking spray and line with parchment paper.
• Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of springform pan. Use the bottom of a drinking glass or flat measuring cup to press the crumbs into the sides and bottom of the pan, making it as uniform and compact as possible. (The crust will be thick.)
• For the frozen chocolate cheesecake: Put the cream cheese into the bowl of a stand mixer with fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix the cream cheese for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Slowly add the sweetened condensed milk and continue to mix on medium-high speed for about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides with a spatula and then continue to mix for another minute. Turn off the mixer and add in the cocoa powder and confectioners' sugar.
• Turn on the mixer starting on low, then increase the speed to medium-high and mix until incorporated, about 1 minute.
• Remove the bowl from the stand mixer and fold in the whipped topping by hand.
• Pour the mixture into the prepared graham cracker crust and place in the freezer for at least 2 hours or up to overnight. (If chilling overnight, remove the cheesecake from the freezer after 1 hour and cover with plastic wrap, then return to the freezer.)
• When ready to serve, preheat the broiler. Remove the cheesecake from the freezer and run a sharp paring knife between edge of the springform pan and the graham cracker crust. Open the clasp on the pan and press up from the bottom, allowing the external ring to fall free of the bottom.
• Place the cheesecake on a baking sheet and cover with marshmallows, allowing them to pile up and be stacked highest in the middle.
• Place the cheesecake in the broiler and let broil until the marshmallows start to brown and melt together, 1 to 2 minutes. Carefully transfer the cheesecake to a serving plate. Sprinkle the cheesecake with the remaining graham cracker crumbs, if desired. Serve immediately.
