Frozen S'mores Protein Bars
If your teens are like mine, they’re always on the hunt for something sweet—usually within 10 minutes of finishing a full meal. And in our house, where I try to sneak in wholesome ingredients whenever possible, these Frozen Protein S’mores Bars have become a total game changer.

Ingredients
- 1 tub Cool Whip
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
- 1 bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tsp coconut oil
- 18 Graham crackers
- 1 cup marshmallow fluff optional
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix the Cool Whip with your scoop of protein powder (add marshmallow fluff if desired).
- Spray a 9 x 9 inch baking dish with non stick spray and lay out a single layer of graham crackers.
- Spread the creamy filling evenly across the crackers. Pop the whole thing in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to firm up.
- Melt the chocolate chips with coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals until smooth.
- Pour the melted chocolate over the frozen whipped topping layer and smooth it out with a spatula.
- Place the remaining graham crackers on top, gently pressing down. Freeze until firm, about 1-2 hours.
- Break or slice into squares, wrap individually in plastic wrap, and store in an airtight container or freezer bag for best results.
Notes
- Use a sharp knife to cut your bars for clean edges—especially if they’re super frozen.
- Don’t skip the freezer time between layers—this helps avoid the creamy filling squishing out.
- Mix in peanut butter or almond butter to the filling for a nutty protein blend that adds even more flavor (and grams of protein!).
- Try a white chocolate drizzle on top if you’re feeling fancy. It gives a fun contrast and makes them look bakery-worthy.
- Meal prep hack: Make a double batch and store them at the bottom of the pan (or dish), wrapped and ready to grab during the after-school snack rush.
