INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 tsp of honey
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 tbsp of cocoa powder
  • 4 graham cracker squares
  • 120ml low-fat milk
  • 50g dark chocolate
  • 4 large marshmallows

INGREDIENT NOTES:

GRAHAM CRACKERS:

  • Use graham crackers for a low-carb and gluten-free recipe. Substitutes include low-fat vanilla wafers or digestive biscuits.

DARK CHOCOLATE:

  • Use dark chocolate for the rich chocolate flavor instead of milk chocolate, which contains more sugar. Alternatives include semi-sweet chocolate chips and cocoa powder with a little sweetener or coconut oil.

MARSHMALLOWS:

  • Use the marshmallows for a sweet and chewy layer in S’mores. If not available, then use light whipped topping, marshmallow fluff, or marshmallow-flavored yogurt instead.

COCOA POWDER:

  • Use the cocoa powder to enhance the chocolate flavor without any extra calories. We can also utilize instant coffee powder instead of it, but we can skip this step as well.

LOW-FAT MILK:

  • This is basically used for blending and softening the marshmallow layer.

HONEY:

  • Used for sweetening, especially if using bitter chocolate.

SALT:

  • Used for balancing the flavor. Skip this step if desired.

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. To prepare the base, crush the graham crackers and spread them on the tray.
  2. Using a small microwave-safe bowl, crush the dark chocolate and gently melt it, add half the milk, cocoa powder, and honey if used, and then mix the mixture until smooth.
  3. Now add this chocolate mixture to the tray on top of the crackers’ base, whether in the whole tray or individual molds if used, and place a
  4. marshmallow on top of each serving.
  5. Wrap the tray and place it for 4 hours or for the night in the freezer until they become hard.
  6. Remove the tray from the freezer, wait five minutes, then serve.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS:

  • We can top the Frozen S’mores with chocolate shavings or cracking the graham crackers.
  • For extra visuals, slice berries or bananas alongside as well.
  • Drizzle a small amount of melted salted caramel on top.

TIPS:

  • Use silicon molds for easy removal of s’mores when taken out of the freezer.
  • If dairy-free milk is being used, then the type of chocolate needs to be considered because some dark chocolates contain dairy.
  • If freezing in a large block in one tray, then wait 10 minutes until it’s time to cut them into small servings.
  • For easy portion control for Weight Watchers tracking, the aim should be for 100 to 120 grams per serving.
  • To reduce the amount of sugar further, use sugar-free marshmallows.

STORAGE INFORMATION:

FRIDGE:

  • We should not be placing the Frozen S’mores in the fridge for more than a few hours. After a few hours, it will become a mousse-like texture rather than a creamy ice cream one. We should consume the treat within one day.

FREEZER:

  • For freezing the S’mores, they can remain in good condition for a maximum of 2 to 3 months, but they are best for 1 month. Make sure to air-tight wrap them or place them in an air-tight box to avoid any freeze burn.

FAQs:

How many SmartPoints does each treat contain?

  • This entirely depends upon the ingredients and their proportion. For the exact amount, the WW app or calculator can give accurate results.

Can I make this ahead of an event?

  • Yes, we can make Frozen S’mores ahead of an event, just freeze them and take them out of the freezer 5 minutes before serving.

Can this be keto/vegan friendly?

  • Yes, but the ingredients need to be suitable, such as using dairy-free milk, sugar-free chocolate, vegan marshmallows, and so on. The Weight Watchers points need to be adjusted as well.
