    🍯 Why This Recipe Works

    1. It's easy to make. The steps needed to make this recipe are simple enough that you can grab the kids and have them help. It's novice-friendly and perfect for beginner bakers!
    2. Simple ingredients. We won't need much to make this pie, and we will be using simple and basic ingredients in this recipe too.
    3. It comes together quickly. The hardest part about this pie is the waiting as it chills, so I prefer to make it the night before so I can sleep through all of that boring waiting time. The actual pie-making part- takes only a few minutes.

    🥘 Ingredients

    labeled ingredients needed to make no bake smores pie.

    🥘 Ingredients

    Cream cheese- Adding in some softened cream cheese will give this cake a richer taste, much like a no-bake cheesecake. Not only that, but it helps to keep the pie more stable.

    Marshmallow fluff- For added stability and taste, using a jar of marshmallow fluff or marshmallow creme will work wonders!

    Chocolate ice cream- Use your favorite chocolate ice cream for this recipe, but make sure it sat out for a few minutes first (softer ice cream is easier to mix together).

    Whipped topping- You will want some whipped topping to go into the pie filling and to be used as a garnish on top too.

    Graham cracker crust- You will need some graham cracker crumbs, butter, and granulated sugar to make your own crust. You can buy pre-crushed graham cracker crumbs, but they're cheaper and easier to crush up yourself. The sugar helps to hold it together too.

    For specific ingredients and measurements, please see the recipe card below.

    🧾 Substitutions

    Graham cracker crust. If desired, you can cut down on a lot of time and effort by simply using a store-bought graham cracker crust. Note that you will have excess filling left over and that it may not be enough to make a second pie.

    📖 Variations

    For more fun, swap out the ice cream flavor for a different option. Using strawberry ice cream can give you strawberries and cream pie, but rocky road ice cream can give you added marshmallows and texture.

    This filling also pairs wonderfully with an oreo pie crust!

    🍴 Recipe Tips

    It helps to plan ahead and have your cream cheese softened to room temperature, but your ice cream can still be pretty frozen. You'll want the ice cream to be about the consistency of soft serve as that will keep it from being too melted and will still allow for even blending.

    I like to garnish the top of my pie with broiled marshmallows for a toasted look. You can make your own by placing large marshmallows on a foil-lined baking sheet and broiling on High for up to 1 minute. Keep a close eye on them as they can easily burn or ignite.

    💭 FAQs

    How long is an ice cream pie good in freezer?

    If kept well covered in plastic wrap or stored in an airtight container, you can expect your pie to freeze well for up to 8 days. After that, you may experience flavorless or freezer burn, but the pie should "technically" be good for weeks if kept properly stored.

    When to serve ice cream pie with graham cracker crust

    Serve this pie up on a hot day in summer, for fall holidays, Easter, and all the days in between. There's never a bad time to enjoy the taste of smores, and this pie is perfect for warmer weather and staying indoors.

    Why did my ice cream pie not set?

    If you don't allow your pie the proper amount of time to freeze, it may not set completely. You are working with thawed cream cheese and softened ice cream; it will take a MINIMUM of 4 hours to firm up and freeze to the point where you can slice the pie. For best results, make it the night before serving.

    Plan ahead: Soften cream cheese but keep ice cream frozen, aiming for soft-serve consistency for even blending.
