Ingredients

For the Edible Cookie Dough Layer

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened

  • ¾ cup brown sugar

  • ¼ cup granulated sugar

  • 2 tbsp milk

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 2 cups heat-treated all-purpose flour

  • ½ tsp salt

  • ¾ cup mini chocolate chips

For the Fudge & Filling

  • ¾ cup hot fudge sauce

  • ½ cup marshmallow fluff


Optional Garnish

Important Step: Heat-Treat the Flour

To make edible cookie dough safe to eat:

  1. Spread flour on a baking sheet.

  2. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5–7 minutes.

  3. Let cool completely before using.

This eliminates any potential bacteria in raw flour.


How to Prepare the S’mores Explosion Ice Cream Roll

Step 1: Prepare the Cookie Dough

  1. Beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until creamy.

  2. Add milk and vanilla extract.

  3. Mix in heat-treated flour and salt until combined.

  4. Fold in mini chocolate chips.

Press cookie dough evenly onto a parchment-lined baking sheet in a large rectangle (about ¼ inch thick). Freeze for 20–30 minutes until firm but flexible.


Step 2: Prepare the Ice Cream Layer

  1. In a bowl, mix slightly softened vanilla ice cream with marshmallows, crushed graham crackers, and mini chocolate chips.

  2. Spread evenly over the chilled cookie dough layer, leaving about 1 inch border around edges.

Freeze for 30 minutes to firm up slightly.


Step 3: Add the “Explosion” Filling

Drizzle hot fudge sauce over the ice cream layer.

Add dollops of marshmallow fluff and gently swirl.

Return to freezer for 15–20 minutes to set slightly before rolling.


Step 4: Roll the Dessert

Using parchment paper to help:

  1. Carefully lift one long side.

  2. Gently roll into a tight log, like a jelly roll.

  3. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap.

Freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely firm.


Step 5: Slice and Serve

Remove from freezer and let sit 5 minutes before slicing.

Top with:

  • Extra chocolate drizzle

  • Crushed graham crackers

  • Toasted marshmallows

Slice into thick rounds and serve immediately.


Pro Tips for Perfect Results

For cleaner slices, dip knife in hot water and wipe dry before cutting.
