This s’mores lasagna recipe is a decadent dessert that combines the flavors of a classic campfire s’mores treat.

It’s a nostalgic and comforting dessert with a twist, sure to satisfy any sweet tooth and evoke memories of cozy nights outdoors.

You’ll need:

For The First Layer:

  • 2¼ cups of graham cracker crumbs plus 2 tablespoons of crumbs for topping
  • ½ cup of butter, melted
  • ¼ cup of sugar

For The Second Layer:

  • 8 ounces of cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup of powdered sugar
  • 8 ounces of Cool Whip

For The Third Layer:

  • 2 (5.1-ounce) boxes of instant chocolate pudding
  • 3 cups of milk

For The Fourth Layer:

  • 8 ounces of Cool Whip
  • ¼ cup of graham cracker crumbs
  • 3 cups of miniature marshmallows
  • Hershey candy bar squares
  • Chocolate syrup for drizzle

PRO TIP:

A total of 16 ounces of Cool Whip is used. You can buy the large 16-ounce container and split it in half between the third and top layers or buy two 8-ounce containers.

Substitutions And Additions

COOL WHIP: If you would prefer to make your own whipped cream, we have a recipe here to help you.

MARSHMALLOWS: Make this into a unicorn s’mores version by replacing the white mini marshmallows with colorful ones.

If you don’t have miniature marshmallows, you could use regular large marshmallows cut in half for your marshmallow layer.

CHOCOLATE CHIPS: If this isn’t sweet enough already, mix some mini chocolate chips, either semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips, into the chocolate pudding layer.

GRAHAM CRACKER CRUMBS: If graham crackers aren’t your favorite, crushed vanilla wafers or chocolate sandwich cookies can be fantastic substitutes for graham cracker crumbs.

They’ll bring their own unique flavor and texture to the dessert, allowing you to customize it to your taste.

How To Make This S’mores Lasagna Recipe

Let’s walk through the easy steps to creating each irresistible layer of this yummy dessert.

For The First Layer

STEP ONE: In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar.

OUR RECIPE DEVELOPER SAYS

If your graham crackers don’t come crushed, you can crush them yourself. Add whole graham crackers to a food processor and run on high for 30 seconds and then pulse until desired crumb texture.

Or you can place the graham crackers in a plastic storage bag, seal and roll them over with a rolling pin until crushed.

STEP TWO: Prepare a 9 x 13-inch pan with nonstick cooking spray. Press the mixture into the bottom of the pan.

Using the bottom of a glass or metal measuring cup, press the crust down firmly and then chill for two hours before adding the next layer.

For The Second Layer

STEP THREE: In a large bowl using a hand mixer, mix together the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth.

STEP FOUR: Spread mixture over top of the graham cracker layer. Place in the refrigerator to chill for 15 minutes.

For The Third Layer

STEP FIVE: In a large bowl, whisk chocolate pudding and milk until the mixture just begins to thicken.

Spread the chocolate pudding mixture over the cream cheese layer. Chill for 15 minutes.

For The Fourth Layer

STEP SIX: Spread the eight ounces of Cool Whip over the top of the dessert.

Sprinkle the graham cracker crumbs over the top. Sprinkle a layer of miniature marshmallows over the top of the dessert.

Chill until ready to serve.

STEP SEVEN: Right before serving, use a kitchen torch on a low flame setting and lightly toast the top of the marshmallows until brown.

PRO TIP:

If you don’t own a kitchen torch, place the marshmallows on a shallow baking sheet and place them under the broiler. Watch closely and shake the pan frequently to brown all sides of the marshmallows and prevent sticking to the pan.

Once they reach a golden brown, remove them and let them cool. Once the pan has cooled, place the pan in the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes to firm them up, and then loosen them from the pan and place them on top of the Cool Whip/crumb sprinkle layer.

STEP EIGHT: Stick the Hershey’s chocolate pieces randomly on top of the lasagna and drizzle with chocolate syrup.

How To Serve This S’mores Layered Dessert

Serve this no-bake s’mores lasagna recipe with a drizzle of our hot fudge sauce and vanilla ice cream on the side for an extra decadent confection.

Add iced tea, raspberry iced tea, sweet peach iced tea, or our southern strawberry sweet tea to wash it all down.

A steaming mug of hot chocolate pairs wonderfully with s’mores lasagna. The warm, comforting cocoa beverage complements the dessert’s chocolate and marshmallow elements.

Dessert lasagnas are so heavenly, and we can help you with lots of different variations. Try our chocolate lasagna and peanut butter lasagna for a couple more easy recipes.

Storage

Now that you’ve savored every bite of your delicious s’mores lasagna, you might be wondering how to store any leftovers or prepare it in advance for a future treat.

MAKE AHEAD: Simply assemble the layers as directed in the recipe, cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil, and refrigerate it.

When you’re ready to enjoy it, take it out of the fridge, let it sit at room temperature for about 15-30 minutes to soften slightly, and then serve.

IN THE FRIDGE: Store this s’mores layered dessert with the top of the pan covered with tin foil in the refrigerator for up to three days.

IN THE FREEZER: Freeze this easy s’mores lasagna covered. It would be best to freeze it without the marshmallow layer and add them fresh before serving the dessert.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if I don’t have a torch to brown the marshmallows?

You can brown the marshmallows a little bit under the broiler in the oven. We provide instructions above for how to do that.

Can I use chocolate graham crackers instead of regular graham crackers for the crust?

For an extra chocolatey version of this dessert, you could use chocolate graham cracker crumbs.

Can I use marshmallow creme or marshmallow fluff instead of miniature marshmallows?

We would highly recommend using actual marshmallows in this recipe, but in a pinch, those products would also work.

Can I freeze this recipe?

You can freeze this for up to a month, but we recommend waiting to add the marshmallows on top until right before you are ready to serve.
