This looks like a cheesecake but I don’t see the cream cheese so I’m not sure if it’s a cheesecake or not
It’s not cheesecake. It’s a marshmallow pie with a graham cracker crust and some graham crackers as the topping. In addition to the graham cracker crust, you need marshmallows, milk, whipping cream, butter, and some semi-sweet chocolate, but I don’t really know where that comes into the recipe. My grandma taught me to put little bits of chocolate into the filling before pouring it into the crust, and then put a few chocolate curls on top as a decoration. I like this recipe, it’s easier than my grandma’s recipe, but there’s no cream cheese.
Hi how much cream cheese do I need
There is no cream cheese in the recipe. You can find the full recipe card above the comments section.
Very easy smooth and good. Only thing is like eating a handful of marshmallows. Needs flavor.
Could you use cool whip instead of the whipping cream>
I haven’t tried it with cool whip but it should work. You wouldn’t need to whip it as stated in the recipe directions. If you try it, let me know how it turns out!
I’ve tried it with Cool Whip and it didn’t have enough “structure” to keep it fluffy. I’ve used Dream Whip and that was a little bit better, but it turns out best with whipping cream.
My Italian Grandma used to make this and called it “Millionaire Pie”… I guess because it was so RICH!
I want to make this, but I only have large campfire marshmallows. I wonder how many of those I would need? Anyway, I’m pinning so I can make this!
I would just measure out 4 cups of the campfire marshmallows and that should be ok!
I really want a slice of this pie! Hope you are having a great weekend and thanks so much for sharing with Full Plate Thursday!

Marshmallow Pie, sounds yummy. Printed and signed up for your newsletter.
Hi,
I just wondered, can you please tell me how many grams of marshmallows I should use, because we don´t have mini marshmallows in Germany, only the big ones. Thanks!
It works out to be about 806 grams. The big ones will be fine because everything is melted anyways.
Oh man! This pie looks delicious and creamy! Will marshmallow fluff work in place of the marshmallows?
It should because fluff is basically just melted marshmallows.
This pie looks amazing! Totally making it for myself for my birthday this year!
