🍫 What Are S'mores Made Of?
S'mores are made with a chocolate candy bar and marshmallows sandwiched between two graham crackers.
This Vegan S'mores Ice Cream is made with coconut milk, sweetened condensed coconut milk, vegan gluten free graham crackers, vegan marshmallows, and vegan dark chocolate baking chunks.
🌱 Are Marshmallows Vegan?
Most marshmallows are not vegan because they contain gelatin. Thanks to companies like Dandies, who make vegan marshmallows, vegans can enjoy them too.
Where Can I Find Vegan Marshmallows?
Whole Foods carries Dandies vegan marshmallows. They can be also be found at many natural grocery stores and on Amazon.
I read that Trader Joe's has vegan marshmallows, but that they are a seasonal item. I've never tried them myself.
What Graham Crackers Are Vegan and Gluten Free?
For this recipe I used Kinnikinnick S'moreables Graham Style Crackers. The only other brand that I've seen that makes vegan gluten free graham crackers is Nairn's Oat Grahams.
Both are delicious. They can be found at natural grocery stores and on Amazon. I buy both brands at my local Sprout's.
🧾 Ingredients
- Full fat coconut milk: Makes a great ice cream base. It's rich and creamy.
- Sweetened condensed coconut milk: Adds more creaminess and a wonderful sweet rich flavor.
- Vanilla extract: Because of course! It adds a nuanced floral note that's difficult to describe.
- Toasted vegan marshmallows: The key word here is toasted. It isn't s'mores ice cream without the toasted marshmallows!
- Dark chocolate baking chunks: For a deep rich chocolaty flavor. You could also use chocolate chips.
- Vegan Gluten free graham crackers: To add some crunch. I used gluten free because I am gluten intolerant. You could use whatever your favorite is.

- Chop dark chocolate baking chunks.

📖 Variations / Additions

💭 Tips

- Let the mixture partially freeze before adding the toasted vegan marshmallows, chocolate chunks, and crushed graham crackers. That way they won't sink to the bottom.
