Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 graham crackers
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 15 large marshmallows
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- optional toppings: crushed nuts, sea salt, or caramel sauce
Instructions
Preheat your grill or oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place a cast-iron skillet on a heat-safe surface and spread 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter evenly across the bottom to prevent sticking.
Break the graham crackers into smaller pieces and spread them out in a single layer across the bottom of the skillet.
Sprinkle the semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over the top of the graham crackers.
Arrange the large marshmallows on top of the chocolate chips in a circular pattern, leaving a small gap between each marshmallow to allow for expansion as they heat up.
If using a grill, place the skillet over indirect heat. If using an oven, place the skillet on the middle rack. Bake or grill for about 8–10 minutes, or until the marshmallows are golden brown and gooey, and the chocolate is melted.
Carefully remove the skillet from the heat source. Optional: Sprinkle crushed nuts or sea salt over the top or drizzle with caramel sauce for added flavor.
Serve warm with a spoon or dessert forks for sharing. Enjoy the gooey, chocolatey indulgence immediately!
