Ingredients
Scale
- 7 oz (198 g) marshmallow crème
- 8 oz (226 g) Cool Whip
- 4 oz (113 g) cream cheese
- 2.5 cups (591 ml) milk
- 1 large box instant chocolate pudding mix
- 32 squares graham crackers
Instructions
- Pudding Preparation: Whisk chocolate pudding mix with milk until smooth, allowing the mixture to thicken for 5 minutes at room temperature.
- Dish Setup: Line a 9 x 13 inches baking dish with parchment paper, creating an overhang for easy removal.
- Pudding Layer: Spread the thickened chocolate pudding evenly across the bottom of the prepared dish using a spatula.
- Marshmallow Cream Cheese Blend: In a separate bowl, beat softened cream cheese and marshmallow creme until creamy and fully integrated.
- Whipped Topping Incorporation: Fold whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture, ensuring a light and consistent texture.
- Layer Assembly: Carefully spread the marshmallow cream cheese mixture over the chocolate pudding, creating a smooth surface.
- Freezing Process: Freeze the dessert for 6 to 8 hours until completely solidified.
- Cutting and Sandwich Formation: Remove from freezer, lift out using parchment paper, and quickly slice into 16 squares. Place each square between two graham cracker sheets, gently pressing to create sandwiches.
- Serving: Serve immediately or return to the freezer until ready to enjoy the chilled treat.
Notes
- Chill Wisely: Freeze the dessert for 6-8 hours to ensure firm layers and optimal texture, preventing soft or runny consistency.
- Work Fast: Cut and assemble ice cream sandwiches quickly to minimize melting and maintain structural integrity.
- Smooth Technique: Use a spatula to evenly distribute pudding and marshmallow layers, creating uniform and visually appealing dessert.
- Storage Tip: Keep assembled sandwiches in freezer until serving to maintain crisp graham cracker texture and prevent premature softening.
