Looking for a quick and easy way to enjoy the flavors of a campfire favorite without the hassle of building a fire? This Slam Dunk S'mores Dip brings the ooey-gooey goodness of s’mores right to your kitchen. It's perfect for sharing and will surely be a hit at any gathering!
The star of this dish is semi-sweet chocolate chips, which melt beautifully and provide a rich, chocolatey base. Heavy cream is added to create a smooth, silky texture that blends perfectly with the chocolate. The mini marshmallows offer that classic s'mores experience as they toast to a golden brown in the oven. Finally, graham crackers are your trusty dipping companions, adding a satisfying crunch that complements the creamy dip.
This s’mores dip is perfect for a cozy movie night or as a fun dessert at a barbecue. Pair it with fresh strawberries or banana slices for added variety. If you’re feeling indulgent, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side — the contrast of hot and cold is divine!
First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures your marshmallows will toast to perfection. Next, grab a medium saucepan and place it over low heat. Add your 2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 cup of heavy cream to the pan. Stir this continuously — you don’t want the chocolate to scorch, which can happen if left unattended. Keep stirring until the mixture is completely melted and smooth.
Once your chocolate mixture is ready, pour it into an 8-inch baking dish. Spread it out evenly with a spatula to ensure every bite has that chocolatey goodness. Now, take your mini marshmallows and scatter them generously over the top. Make sure they cover the entire surface, creating an even layer.
Pop the dish into your preheated oven and let it bake for about 8-10 minutes. Keep an eye on it towards the end — you’re looking for those marshmallows to reach a beautiful golden brown. Once they’re perfectly toasted, remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for just a few minutes. This will prevent any burnt tongues from eager taste testers. Serve it warm with graham crackers for dipping, and enjoy!
