High Protein No Bake S’mores Bark

This high protein no bake s’mores bark has everything you want in a nostalgic dessert. it's rich chocolate, gooey marshmallow, and that classic graham cracker crunch, but made with better-for-you ingredients and a seriously satisfying macro profile. It’s layered, indulgent, and somehow still nourishing, which is exactly the kind of balance I’m always going for.

Ingredients

  • For the brownie base:
  • 1 cup medjool dates pitted and soaked in hot water for 10 minutes, then drained
  • 1/2 cup vanilla or chocolate protein powder
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/3 cup almond butter or sun butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 –4 tablespoons dairy-free milk as needed
  • 1/8 teaspoon sea salt
  • For the middle layer:
  • 1/2 –3/4 cup toonie moonie marshmallow cream
  • For the top layer:
  • 1/2 cup dairy-free chocolate melted
  • 1/3 –1/2 cup crushed graham crackers or vanilla cookies
  • Flaky sea salt

Instructions

  • Line a loaf pan or small square pan with parchment paper.
  • Add the soaked and drained dates to a food processor and blend until smooth and paste-like.
  • Add the protein powder, cocoa powder, almond butter, vanilla extract, sea salt, and 2 tablespoons of dairy-free milk. Blend until a thick dough forms. Add more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the mixture is sticky and moldable but not wet if needed.
  • Transfer the mixture to your prepared pan and flatten into an even layer between two pieces pof parchment paper
  • Place in the freezer for 30 minutes to firm up.
  • Remove from the freezer and spread an even layer of marshmallow cream over the base.
  • Freeze again for 15–20 minutes until slightly set.
  • Sprinkle with crushed graham crackers or cookies and a pinch of flaky sea salt, gently pressing so they stick.
  • Pour the melted chocolate over the top and spread evenly.
  • Freeze for 20–30 minutes until fully set.
  • Slice or break into pieces and enjoy. Store in the freezer and let the bark sit at room temperature for a few minutes before enjoying for the best texture. The marshmallow layer will firm up in the freezer, but softens into that perfect creamy, gooey s’mores consistency after 5-10 minutes, making it much easier (and more enjoyable) to bite into.
