Some of the best recipes are also the simplest, and these Frozen Graham Cracker Cool Whip Sandwiches are a perfect example. Made with just two ingredients, they’ve been a longtime WeightWatchers favorite because they satisfy a sweet craving with almost no time or effort.
If you’ve never tried one, imagine a lighter take on an ice cream sandwich. As the whipped topping freezes, it becomes creamy and firm while the graham crackers soften just enough to create a tender, cake-like texture. It’s amazing what two simple pantry staples can become.
I almost always keep a few tucked away in the freezer for those evenings when I want a little something sweet after dinner. They’re one of those easy treats that’s nice to have on hand because they’re ready whenever the craving strikes.
One of my favorite things about this recipe is how easy it is to customize. Whether you choose plain, cinnamon, or chocolate graham crackers or stir a little peanut butter, mini chocolate chips, or your favorite extract into the whipped topping, there are countless ways to make these simple freezer sandwiches your own.

Taste Good
I made these today and it was a good treat!! I had one for dessert tonight. I made four so three are sitting in the freezer. Next time, I’m going to add some PB Fit to a couple and sliced strawberries to others. Thanks SO much for this great idea!!!
I made these last week and could not believe how delicious they were. They were easy to make and set up quickly in the freezer. I’m on the green plan and estimate each square to be 3 smart points. What a treat! The only issue I have is that I couldn’t stop at one
Thank you Martha for such a great recipe
