FROZEN S'MORES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the ganache: Add the chocolate chips to a medium heatproof bowl.
• In a small saucepan, bring the International Delight Cocoa PEBBLES™ Coffee Creamer to a simmer over medium heat. Pour over the chocolate chips and stir until the chocolate is melted and the ganache is smooth. Chill in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes, until the ganache is no longer warm but still spreadable.
• Assemble the s'mores: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Break the graham crackers in half crosswise and set 10 of the graham cracker squares on the prepared baking sheet. Set the remaining 10 squares aside.
• Use scissors to remove the cardboard packaging from the ice cream and set the ice cream cylinder on a cutting board. Cut the ice cream crosswise into 1-inch thick planks, then set the planks flat and cut into 10 2x2½-inch squares. Immediately place the ice cream squares directly on top of the graham crackers on the baking sheet, then transfer to the freezer for at least 30 minutes, up to 60 minutes, until the ice cream is frozen solid again and stuck to the graham crackers.
• Transfer the ganache to a piping bag fitted with a medium round tip.
• Carefully pipe about 2 tablespoons of ganache onto each ice cream square, leaving about ¼ inch of space around the edges. Place the remaining 10 graham crackers squares on top of the ganache and press down gently until the ganache starts to drip over the edges of the ice cream. Return to the freezer to firm for at least 30 minutes, up to 60 minutes.
• Just before serving, use a small piece of paper to cover half of a graham cracker square diagonally. Use a small strainer to sift cocoa powder lightly onto the exposed half of the frozen s'more. Repeat with the remaining s'mores.
• Serve immediately.
• Enjoy!

VEGAN FROZEN COCONUT LIME BARS

Steps:

• Spray a 9-by-9-inch pan with cooking spray and line with two overlapping sheets of parchment paper to create overhang on all sides.
• Combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar and salt in a medium bowl. Place the shredded coconut in a small skillet and toast over medium heat for about 3 minutes, tossing often, until light golden brown. Add half the coconut to the bowl with the graham cracker crumbs, reserving the other half for later.
• Add the coconut oil to the graham cracker crumb mixture and toss with your hands until the crumbs are evenly moistened. Transfer to the prepared pan and press into an even layer, packing the crust lightly with the bottom of a measuring cup. Freeze for 30 to 45 minutes, until the crust is firm to the touch.
• Meanwhile, allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for 10 to 15 minutes, until slightly softened. Spoon the ice cream into a large mixing bowl and add the zest of 1 lime, the lime juice, the reserved toasted shredded coconut and a pinch of salt. Working quickly, mix with a spatula until combined and smooth.
• Scrape the mixture onto the frozen crust and spread into an even layer using an offset spatula.
• Cover the pan with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, at least 3 hours, or overnight.
• To serve, lift the overhanging parchment paper to remove the bars and place on a cutting board. Zest the remaining lime over the bars, cut into squares and serve immediately.

NO-BAKE LOADED S'MORES BARS

Steps:

• Grease a 9-inch-square pan and line it with parchment paper so that the paper extends up all sides. Lightly spray the parchment with nonstick spray and set aside.
• For the crust: Lightly spray a large bowl with nonstick spray. Break the graham crackers into the bowl, aiming for pieces about 1/2 to 1 inch in size. Crush the pretzels into the bowl so that they break into halves or quarters. Toss together and set aside.
• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium. Cook until it begins to bubble, then stir with a spatula until it becomes golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Immediately add the marshmallows and 1 tablespoon water; the mixture will bubble. Reduce the heat to low and continue stirring until the marshmallows are mostly melted, about 1 minute.
• Remove from the heat and stir in the white chocolate chips and salt, stirring until the chips melt. Pour this mixture over the graham cracker mixture and toss and stir to combine. Scrape into the prepared pan and press into an even layer, filling in gaps by borrowing some of the mix from another spot.
• For the trail mix toppings: Sprinkle the almonds, marshmallows, chocolate chips and coconut evenly over the mixture in the pan. Press firmly to make sure it sticks to the base layer.
• For the chocolate coating: Combine the semisweet chips, oil and salt in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 15-second intervals stirring after each, until melted, about 45 seconds. Pour over the trail mix layer and smooth with a spatula, filling any crevices. Tap the pan gently to help the chocolate settle.
• Sprinkle with coconut if using. Allow to set until the chocolate is firm, several hours at room temperature or about 1 hour in the refrigerator. Cut into 16 bars. Leftovers will keep, covered, at room temperature for up to one week.
