Let’s just call this the year of the dairy-free “ice cream” sandwich here on Go Dairy Free. These s’mores ice cream sandwiches were inspired by National S’mores Day (yes, that’s today!), packages of Enjoy Life Vanilla Honey Graham Cookies and Chocolate Chunks, and the July 2015 cover of Cooking Light magazine.

But my version has many improvements over the Cooking Light recipe (in my humble opinion). For starters, these decadent delights are dairy-free, gluten-free, top food allergen-free and optionally vegan, and they taste AMAZING. Trust me, everyone will love them, special diet or not.

Also, I use a rich chocolate coating rather than syrup, and, in true s’mores fashion, the chocolate is inside the graham goodness. Really, what were they thinking drizzling chocolate syrup on top of their s’mores ice cream sandwiches. I mean a) not proper s’mores order and b) who can eat that? Nonetheless, I thank them for the delicious idea and think that you will too.

Doesn’t that dairy-free ice cream look like a big puffy marshmallow?

Note that I opted to use crunchy Honey Graham Cookies for these s’mores ice cream sandwiches rather than ordinary graham crackers – such a delicious step up and they are much sturdier than those brittle squares. For the chocolate, I chose Enjoy Life Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chunks because they are top allergen-free, they melt very well, and are awesome to snack on while I wait for the ice cream to set up (okay, that last reason had a lot of pull).

This post is sponsored by Enjoy Life Foods, but seriously, I was just looking for an excuse to make these s’mores ice cream sandwiches. Wouldn’t you?

Special Diet Notes: S’mores Ice Cream Sandwiches

By ingredients, this recipe is dairy-free / non-dairy, egg-free, gluten-free, nut-free, peanut-free, soy-free, vegetarian, and generally top food allergy-friendly.

For vegan and vegetarian s’mores ice cream sandwiches, be sure to stick with vegan marshmallows (I tested with Dandies) and use the Enjoy Life Sugar Crisp or Double Chocolate crunchy cookies. As the name implies, the Vanilla Honey Graham cookies from Enjoy Life Foods do contain real honey, but their other crunchy cookies do not.
