Scrumptious Rain or Shine Baked S'mores Dip

S'mores are a great campfire tradition across our country, but sometimes the weather doesn't cooperate.

I promised my kids marshmallows, chocolate, and crackers cooked over an open flame last weekend and then the skies opened up. The rain went on and on and on for so long I considered trading our car for a dingy. So, while I was browsing the internet I came across 1001 ways to make s'mores that don't involve a tent, or mosquitos, or even a fire.

It's a guarantee that if you make this you'll become Most Amazing Person Ever of the Universe, at least until you insist the kids go to bed and brush their teeth. The only problem I see with making a no-fire, indoor version of s'mores is that now we'll have no excuse to light a campfire.

Ingredients

1 bag of regular-sized marshmallows (36-37 marshmallows)

250 grams milk chocolate

4 tablespoons milk

graham crackers

Directions

Preheat oven to broil on low.
Melt chocolate, 1 1/2 cups or 10-11 marshmallows, and milk in a cast iron (or oven-safe) skillet on the stove top, over low heat. Stir frequently with a silicone spatula to prevent sticking.
Once ingredients are completely melted and combined, remove from heat, and place uncooked marshmallows into the chocolate mixture. Push them down so they stay upright. You'll need approximately 26 marshmallows if you're using a standard 12" skillet.
Slide skillet into the oven and broil on low for one minute. Remove from oven immediately or the marshmallows will turn a shade of burnt.
Serve with graham crackers for dipping.

Clean up is easy! Once the kids (young or old) have finished digging in, gently scrape out the cast iron skillet with the silicone spatula and rinse whatever is left over under hot water.

Bon appétit!

Serves 6-8, depending on how greedy everyone is.
