S'mores Cheesecake Pudding Cups (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Cheesecake Pudding

01 - 1 package instant vanilla pudding mix
02 - 2 cups cold milk
03 - 8 oz cream cheese, softened
04 - 1 cup powdered sugar
05 - 1 tsp vanilla extract

→ Graham Cracker Crust

06 - 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
07 - 4 tbsp melted butter
08 - 2 tbsp sugar

→ Toppings

09 - 4 oz milk chocolate, chopped (or chocolate chips)
10 - Mini marshmallows (for toasting)

# Instructions:

01 - Mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar in a bowl until fully combined. Spoon about a tablespoon of the mixture into the bottom of each serving cup and gently press to form a crust. Set aside.
02 - In a mixing bowl, whisk the instant vanilla pudding mix with cold milk as per package instructions. Beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract in a separate bowl until smooth. Fold the pudding into the cream cheese mixture until well combined. Spoon the mixture over the graham cracker crust in each cup, filling ¾ full.
03 - Sprinkle the chopped milk chocolate (or chocolate chips) on top of the cheesecake layer in each cup.
04 - Place mini marshmallows on top of the chocolate layer. Toast the marshmallows using a kitchen torch or broiler for 1-2 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.
05 - Chill the pudding cups in the fridge for at least 2 hours to set the layers. Serve cold and enjoy.

# Notes:

01 - Chilling the pudding allows the layers to firm up for an optimal texture and flavor.
02 - Prepare the toasted marshmallows just before serving to maintain their texture.
