Preparation Steps
- Begin by crushing about 1 ½ cups of graham crackers in a food processor until they resemble fine crumbs; this should take roughly 1-2 minutes.
- Melt ½ cup of unsalted butter in the microwave for about 30-40 seconds, then combine it with the crumbs in a mixing bowl.
- Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set while you prepare the filling.
- In a small saucepan, combine 2 cups of mini marshmallows and ½ cup of whole milk over low heat, stirring gently for about 5-7 minutes until smooth.
- Remove from heat and allow it to cool to room temperature.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat 16 ounces of softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Gradually add in the cooled marshmallow mixture and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, mixing until fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup of heavy cream until stiff peaks form, about 2-3 minutes.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the marshmallow-cream cheese mixture.
- Pour the filling over the chilled crust and smooth the top. Cover and refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours or preferably overnight.
- When ready to serve, carefully remove the sides of the springform pan, slice into wedges, and serve chilled with your favorite toppings.

Notes
Ensure the marshmallow mixture cools before adding to cream cheese to prevent melting. For better texture, chill overnight.
