Did you know that Dreyer's has S'mores Ice Cream? Yeah, awesome, huh! When I saw this I knew that I had to buy it. I received coupons from Dreyer's to come up with a great back to school recipe and I was excited for the challenge. We love making s'mores during the summer. There is nothing better than the warm night air, stars in the sky and enjoying time together as a family eating s'mores. Now as we go back to school, the weather has started to cool down and we don't do it often enough.
With the kids back in school, it is even more important to me to find time in the evenings to create memories and spend time together. I feel like they are so busy with school stuff that the moments we do have together, I want to make them special. One great way to enjoy time spend together is through dessert. You laugh, but really, how many happy family memories do you have with dessert. Ice Cream makes me very happy. 🙂 I like to find recipes that are easy enough that my kids can join me in the kitchen while we make it and then we can enjoy eating it as a family. I decided to make a S'more Ice Cream Sandwich using the Dreyer's S'more Ice Cream and it is a winner!
S'more Ice Cream Sandwich
Ingredients
Graham Crackers
Chocolate Candy Bar
Marshmallows
Dreyer's S'more Ice Cream
Directions
1. Line Cake Pan with Wax paper and spread Dreyer's S'more Ice Cream in a layer on top of wax paper. Store Cake pan in freezer.
2. When you are ready to assemble your Ice Cream Sandwiches, pull out Wax Paper and lay flat on top of a cutting board. Lay your graham cracker square on top of the ice cream and with a knife cut the exact size in the ice cream.
3. Add a graham cracker top and bottom to the Ice Cream and store Ice Cream Sandwiches in the freezer.
4. There are many ways that you can toast your marshmallow but I prefer to toast mine using my stove top. I stuck my marshmallow on a fork and held over flame until toasted.
5. Add a square of chocolate on top of graham cracker then add marshmallow on top of chocolate.
6. Finish with a final graham cracker on the top.
7. Enjoy immediately. If you are wanting to return to freezer and enjoy later, add chocolate at the last minute because freezing the chocolate makes it hard to eat. 🙂
My favorite part about this recipe is not only does it taste delicious but it is super easy to make. My kids love helping in the kitchen and this is such a great back to school dessert recipe that everyone will be excited to help make! After a long day at school, it is fun to sit down with the kids and be able to enjoy such a tasty treat.

Hi, my name is Melissa! I live in Spanish Fork, Utah. I'm happily married to Rob, and together we have five wonderful kids. Our family loves to embark on adventures, often in our RV, exploring the great outdoors. I'm an avid reader and a big fan of Hallmark movies – they always have a way of lifting my spirits. Hiking is another passion of mine; there's nothing like the tranquility of nature. I have a sweet tooth for chocolate and a love for Mexican food, both of which make life a little more delicious. In my downtime, I enjoy playing games with my family, creating memories and sharing laughter. Life is an adventure, and I'm here to enjoy every moment of it!
