Smores Cheesecake: A graham cracker crust with marshmallows and chocolate baked right in, topped with smooth creamy cheesecake and toasted marshmallows. Your favorite summer treat no campfire required!
Smores are hard to beat! It’s really hard to top their melty crunch and gooey marshmallows. However, this Smores Cheesecake is to die for.
I know what you’re thinking graham cracker crust -yawn-. WRONG! This graham cracker crust is lightly sweetened AND the crust itself is topped with chocolate and marshmallows. This gives a whole other dimension to this Smores Cheesecake
The cheesecake portion is also out of this world with tangy sour cream and rich heavy cream.
What are you waiting for? Grab a fork and join me, no campfire required! Love Smores? Be sure to try my no bake Smores pie too!

How will this cheesecake bake with out the water bath?
Hi Rachel,
I would not suggest making this cheesecake without the water bath. I know it is annoying, but it leads to a much better end result.
Looks wonderful!
