These frozen protein s’mores bars are an easy protein-packed sweet treat you can whip up anytime! They are great straight from the freezer and taste just like traditional s’mores except we made them into ice cream bars.

We love s’mores anything, especially this ninja creami protein ice cream. So of course, I had to try my hand at making the viral protein smores bars. And let me tell you they are 10/10!
These s’mores protein bars only have five ingredients and require no baking, which is my kind of dessert. To make them, all you have to do is mix and assemble them, then freeze them until they are set. You can freeze them for 1-2 hours for a more gooey, traditional s’mores filling or overnight for a more ice cream texture. No campfire needed!
Either way, they are just simply amazing!!
We love them straight from the freezer for a quick protein-packed dessert.

Step 1: Line an 8×8 metal pan and layer in 9 graham crackers.

Step 3: Pour and spread half of the melted chocolate evenly over the graham crackers.

Step 4: Combine the Cool Whip and protein powder in a medium mixing bowl.

Step 5: Spread the cool whip mixture evenly over the melted chocolate layer.

Chill until set. About 2 hours for a gooey filling and 8 hours or overnight for a more ice cream-like texture. Then remove and cut into squares.

Tips & Tricks for the best results
- Use an 8×8 metal pan lined with parchment paper. This made it easier to lift the s’mores out of the pan to cut them.
- Don’t skip the chocolate layers since that is the glue that holds these bars together.
- Press the final layer of graham crackers into the chocolate to help it stick better.
- Freezer for 1-2 hours for more of a gooey filling and overnight for more of an ice cream texture.
How To Store Protein S’mores Bars
These protein s’mores bars store great in a freezer-safe container in the freezer so you can easily pull them out when that sweet craving hits.
