Method
Assemble in the skillet
- Spread the chocolate chips in the bottom of a cast iron skillet in an even layer (no gaps).
- Top the chocolate evenly with the mini marshmallows so the surface is fully covered.
Melt and toast
- Place the skillet on a campfire grate over medium heat or suspend it over coals. Cook for 8-10 minutes, keeping an eye out for bubbling chocolate and golden toasted marshmallows (visual cue: browned, puffed tops).
Serve
- Remove the skillet from the heat and serve immediately with graham crackers for dipping, while the marshmallows are still hot and glossy.
Notes
For the cleanest dipper scoop, let it sit off the heat for 30-60 seconds so the chocolate thickens slightly before serving. Store leftovers in the refrigerator up to 3 days, then rewarm in short bursts until pourable (or microwave in 20-30 second intervals). Freezing is not recommended because marshmallows can become watery after thawing. For a lighter option, use sugar-free chocolate chips while keeping the marshmallows for that classic s'mores texture.
