Campfire S’mores Dip Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup chocolate chips (milk or semi-sweet)
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows (or enough to cover the top)
  • Graham crackers, for dipping

Optional add-ins:

  • Peanut butter cups
  • Caramel drizzle
  • Sprinkle of sea salt

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (or 375°F if using a toaster oven).
  2. Pour chocolate chips evenly into an oven-safe skillet or small baking dish.
  3. Top with a layer of marshmallows.
  4. Bake for 5–7 minutes, until marshmallows are golden brown and gooey.
  5. Serve immediately with graham crackers for dipping.

Campfire option:

Assemble the dip in a cast-iron skillet and heat gently over a campfire or grill until melted and bubbly.

Tip:

Add a few camp touches while you snack — share your favorite camp memories, tell a funny story, or do a “rose and thorn” of your week around your indoor “campfire.”
