I seriously can’t wrap my head around the fact that it is already August. I have no idea where the summer went, but if I’m being honest, I’m sort of ready for fall.
Now before you roast me, I’m not wishing away the remaining weeks of summer with my sweet girl, I simply love everything about fall and I’m not mad that it’s right around the corner.
Since the weather has finally chilled out here in Ohio, we’ve been spending many of our evenings eating dinner on the patio followed by roasting marshmallows for s’mores.
We’ve been getting pretty creative this summer with different toppings, chocolates and cookies, but my absolute favorite creation this summer was one that Elle dreamed up.
Cookie Dough S’mores.
Basically two graham crackers, a layer of edible cookie dough, a perfectly toasted marshmallow and a piece of milk chocolate. Pretty much s’mores perfection, folks.
COOKIE DOUGH S’MORES CHEESECAKE: THREE DESSERTS IN ONE
The very first time I made my No Bake S’mores Cheesecake, it was an instant hit.
I mean, who can resist a cute mini dessert? Especially one that combines s’mores and cheesecake into one bite and are super easy to make.
I eventually realized that the only way to improve on the original recipe was to tap into Elle’s new edible cookie dough obsession and add into the mix.
Let’s take stock of all of the elements here:
Buttery graham cracker crust? Check.
Creamy, marshmallowy cheesecake filling that’s full of Campfire® marshmallows? Check.
Chocolate-chip-studded edible cookie dough? Check.
Toasted Campfire® Giant Roaster marshmallow on top? Check check check.
Not a single thing about making this recipe is difficult or time-consuming and they’re great to make ahead of time. Just store the cheesecakes in the fridge until you are ready to serve and finish with the toasted marshmallow.
THE FINISHING TOUCH
Because they’re so easy to make AND make ahead, these No Bake Cookie Dough S’mores Cheesecakes are great for a party for family get-together. Especially one with a bonfire!
I don’t know about you, but our family likes to gather around the bonfire and make s’mores as the sun is setting. Between the lightening bugs and glowing fire, it makes for a pretty perfect end-of-summer evening.
Bring out a tray of these mini Cookie Dough S’mores Cheesecakes and a bag of Campfire® Giant Roasters and let everyone toast their own marshmallow for topping their cheesecake.
That way everyone from the “barely toasteds” to the “burn it to a crisp” marshmallow lovers will be totally happy.

No Bake Cookie Dough S'mores Cheesecake
Ingredients
For the Crust:
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 4 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 container container edible chocolate chip cookie dough 12 ounces, we used Nestle Toll House brand
For the Cheesecake Filling:
- 25 Campfire® Regular Marshmallows
- 8 ounces cream cheese room temperature
- ¼ cup confectioners' sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 8 ounces frozen whipped topping thawed
For the Ganache:
- 3 ounces semisweet chocolate chopped
- 3 ounces heavy cream
For Topping:
- 6 Campfire® Giant Roasters toasted
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, stir together the graham cracker crumbs, sugar and melted butter. Evenly divide the crumbs between 6 individual serving dishes and press into the bottoms of the dishes to form a crust layer.
- Scoop 6 balls of edible cookie dough. You'll want about 3 tablespoons of dough per serving. Roll each serving into a ball and use the palms of your hands to gently flatten the dough into a disc about the size of your serving dishes. Place each disc into the serving dishes directly on top of the graham cracker crust layers.
- Place serving dishes into the refrigerator while you prepare the cheesecake.
- Place 25 Campfire® Regular Marshmallows in a large, deep microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high power for 45-60 seconds. Marshmallows will puff up and begin to melt. Use a buttered spatula to stir the marshmallows until smooth. Set aside.
- In a large bowl with an electric mixer, whip the cream cheese for about 2 minutes. Add in confectioners' sugar and vanilla and beat for an additional minute. Use a buttered spatula to scoop the melted marshmallows into the cream cheese mixture and beat for an additional minute. Use a rubber spatula to fold in whipped topping.
- Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling directly onto the cookie dough layers and place them back into the refrigerator while you prepare the ganache.
- Add chocolate to a heat-safe bowl. Bring cream just to a boil over medium-high heat. Pour heated cream over the chocolate and Let stand for 5 minutes and then whisk to combine. Spoon chocolate ganache onto the cheesecake layer and place back into the refrigerator until you are ready to serve.
- Just before serving, top each cheesecake with a toasted Campfire® Giant Roaster marshmallow. Enjoy!
