Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 10 full sheets, finely crushed)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 16 oz (450 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 4 oz (115 g) semi-sweet chocolate, melted and slightly cooled
  • 2 cups mini marshmallows
  • Optional: crushed graham crackers or chocolate shavings for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust (10 minutes): In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar. Pour in melted butter and stir until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan, making an even layer. Place in the fridge to chill while preparing the filling.
  2. Make the Cheesecake Filling (15 minutes): Using an electric mixer, beat softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until combined. Gradually add melted chocolate and mix just until swirled. In a separate bowl, whip cold heavy whipping cream to stiff peaks. Gently fold whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a rubber spatula, keeping it light and fluffy.
  3. Assemble the Cheesecake (5 minutes): Pour the filling over the chilled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  4. Toast the Marshmallows (5 minutes): Once set, sprinkle mini marshmallows evenly over the top. Use a kitchen torch to toast until golden and gooey, moving the flame evenly to avoid burning. Alternatively, place under a broiler for 1-2 minutes, watching closely.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Add optional crushed graham crackers or chocolate shavings for garnish. Slice with a warm knife and serve immediately.

Notes

If cream cheese is cold, microwave for 10 seconds to soften. Fold whipped cream gently to keep cheesecake light and airy. Use a kitchen torch for best marshmallow toasting control; if using broiler, watch closely to prevent burning. Press crust firmly to avoid crumbling. Chill crust before adding filling to prevent base from falling apart.
