There’s something about the combination of melted chocolate, toasted marshmallows, and crunchy graham crackers that evokes the essence of campfire nights. The aroma of a warm S’mores Dip wafting through the air brings back memories of gatherings with friends and family, huddled around an open flame. I remember the first time I made this dip for a cozy movie night; I couldn’t believe how quickly it disappeared! It’s a simple yet indulgent treat that transports you back to those carefree summer evenings, regardless of the season. You don’t need a campfire to enjoy this classic flavor—just a few ingredients and a bit of love.

What’s In This S’mores Dip

When it comes to the ingredients for this delightful S’mores Dip, simplicity reigns supreme. Each component plays a vital role in achieving that irresistible flavor combination that we all know and love. The key players include rich chocolate chips for a creamy base, butter for added richness, and mini marshmallows that transform into gooey perfection when melted. And let’s not forget the graham crackers for dipping—they complete the experience!

• 1-1/2 cups chocolate chips: Rich and creamy, these are the heart of your dip. Opt for milk chocolate for a classic flavor or dark chocolate for a sophisticated twist.
• 3 tablespoons milk: This ingredient helps to create a smooth and creamy consistency that makes the dip irresistible.
• 1/2 tablespoon butter: Just a touch of butter adds richness and enhances the overall flavor of the dip.
• 10.5 oz mini marshmallows: These little bites of sweetness melt beautifully, creating that classic s’mores texture.
• Graham crackers for serving: The perfect crunchy companion to scoop up all that delicious melted chocolate and marshmallow goodness!

Putting Together S’mores Dip

Creating a delicious S’mores Dip is just a few simple steps away. Follow along, and I’ll guide you through the process to ensure you achieve that perfect gooeyness. Let’s get started!

1. Begin by adding the chocolate chips, milk, and butter into a medium saucepan. Place it over low to medium-low heat. Stir frequently to combine the ingredients.
2. As the mixture heats, keep a close eye on it. Stir constantly, allowing the chocolate chips to melt gradually. Patience is key here; if the heat is too high, the chocolate can easily burn. You want to create a smooth, luscious consistency.
3. Once the chocolate is completely melted and smooth, it’s time to add in one cup of the mini marshmallows. Continue to stir and heat the mixture until all the marshmallows have melted into the chocolate. A spatula works wonderfully for this task!
4. Now, take the melted chocolate and marshmallow mixture and pour it into a 2-quart casserole dish. Spread it out evenly, ensuring it’s still warm and pliable.
5. Next, sprinkle the remaining mini marshmallows generously over the top of your dip. This will create that delicious topping that gets all puffy and browned.
6. Set your oven to broil on low. Place the casserole dish in the oven and broil for about 2 to 4 minutes. Keep a close watch, as broilers can burn quickly! You’ll want to pull it out once the marshmallows are golden brown and puffy.
7. After broiling, remove the dish from the oven carefully. Let it cool for a minute before serving to avoid any burns.
8. Serve your S’mores Dip immediately with graham crackers, cookies, or even fresh fruit like strawberries. Enjoy every gooey, delicious bite!
