Ingredients
Scale
Base and Layers
- Cooking spray
- 2 (3.9-oz.) boxes instant chocolate pudding
- 3 1/2 cups whole milk
- 1/4 cup dark or dutch process cocoa powder
- 2 (7.5-oz.) jars marshmallow crème
- 2 (8-oz.) blocks cream cheese, softened
- 2 sleeves graham crackers, plus 1/2 cup lightly crushed for topping
- 4 1/2 cups mini marshmallows
- 2 cups dark chocolate chips
Toppings
- 1 (16-oz.) container Cool Whip
- 1/4 cup hot fudge sauce
- 2 Hershey’s bars, broken into small pieces
Instructions
- Prepare the baking dish and pudding mixture: Spray a 9″ x 13″ baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking. In a large bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mixes with whole milk and cocoa powder until fully combined and smooth.
- Make marshmallow cream mixture: In another large bowl, beat the marshmallow crème and softened cream cheese together until smooth and creamy, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Assemble the first layer: Line the bottom of the prepared baking dish with a layer of whole graham crackers. Spread half of the marshmallow cream mixture evenly over the graham crackers. Sprinkle 2 cups of mini marshmallows over this layer. Then, spread half of the chocolate pudding mixture evenly on top.
- Repeat layering: Repeat the layering process: another layer of graham crackers, the remaining marshmallow cream mixture, 2 more cups of mini marshmallows, and the remaining chocolate pudding mixture. Finally, sprinkle the top with the dark chocolate chips.
- Chill the dessert: Cover the assembled lasagna and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled and the layers have set properly.
- Add toppings and serve: Remove the dessert from the refrigerator and spread a generous layer of Cool Whip on top. Warm the hot fudge sauce in the microwave just until pourable but not too hot, then drizzle over the top. Finish by sprinkling the crushed graham crackers, broken Hershey’s bar pieces, and the remaining mini marshmallows over the surface before slicing and serving.
Notes
- For best results, soften the cream cheese to room temperature before mixing with marshmallow crème to avoid lumps.
- You can prepare this dessert a day ahead to allow flavors to meld and the layers to set properly.
- Use whole milk for a creamier texture; milk substitutes may change the consistency of the pudding.
- The crushed graham cracker topping adds a nice crunch and authentic s’mores flavor.
- Keep refrigerated until ready to serve for freshness and optimal texture.
