No Bake S’mores Cheesecake is easy to make with creamy chocolate filling, chocolate ganache, a graham cracker crust and toasted marshmallows on top!

No Bake S'mores Cheesecake

Today is National Cheesecake Day and all of your favorite food bloggers are sharing cheesecake recipes today!

When I was trying to decide what kind of cheesecake to make I decided to do a no bake cheesecake.And I had so much fun with s’mores week that I continued the fun by making a No Bake S’mores Cheesecake. This cheesecake has so many things I love.

First of all, even though there is a lot of steps it is a recipe anyone can make. Then, there’s all of the chocolate. It’s creamy with a delicious graham cracker crust and the toasted marshmallows really top it all off!

S’mores Cheesecake Recipe

Chocolate Cheesecake in pan

Step One:

Start by mixing together graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press on the bottom of a springform pan and up the sides.

Chill in the freezer for at least 10 minutes OR Bake at 325 degrees for 10 minutes.

Step Two:

Beat softened cream cheese.

Add melted semi-sweet chocolate, cocoa powder, powdered sugar and whipped topping such as Cool Whip and beat until smooth.

Spread in pan over the crust and place in the fridge for at least 1 hour.

Chocolate Ganache On Cheesecake

Step Three:

Heat heavy whipping cream in the microwave until it starts to boil.

Pour over semi-sweet chocolate chips. Let them sit for 3 minutes and then stir until smooth.

Place the ganache in the fridge and allow it to cool for about 30 minutes.

Spread over the chocolate cheesecake and return it to the fridge to set.

Marshmallows on No Bake S'mores Cheesecake

So, you do have to use the broiler of the oven for less than 60 seconds. That doesn’t count as baking, does it? Top with mini marshmallows.

Toasted Marshmallows Cheesecake

Step Four:

Turn the broiler on high and toast the marshmallows for 30-60 seconds. Watch carefully because they toast REALLY fast!

If you prefer not to use your oven, toast the marshmallows with a kitchen torch.

Step Five:

    Would it work to freeze? Maybe set it out for a couple hours before serving?

    Hello! How long can this cheesecake be out of the fridge?? I’m trying to assemble a list of things to bake for my wedding and I would love this!

      Hi Chelsea,
      You will want to serve this cheesecake cold. It could be left out for a short period of time, but the cheesecake will start to soften considerably if left out too long. Best of luck and congratulations! ~Tonia

    Should I wait until just before serving to toast the marshmallows or is it ok to do everything in advance?
