Ingredients You’ll Need
This dip is as simple as it gets—just three ingredients stand between you and gooey, chocolatey bliss. Here’s what you’ll need (plus a few tips to make it even better):
- Chocolate Bars – Classic milk chocolate melts beautifully, but feel free to mix in semi-sweet or dark for a richer flavor. Break them into pieces for even melting.
- Marshmallows – Regular-size marshmallows give you that dramatic golden top, but mini marshmallows will melt faster and more evenly.
- Graham Crackers (or more!) – Stick with the classic or switch it up with pretzels, strawberries, vanilla wafers, or even cookies for dipping.
That’s it! With just three pantry staples, you’re a few minutes away from dessert greatness.
Jesseca’s Recipe Review
This Dessert Dip is my shortcut to instant dessert success. It’s ridiculously easy, always a crowd-pleaser, and totally delivers that nostalgic campfire vibe—no fire pit required. It’s my go-to when I need something sweet now and don’t feel like baking.
Tip from Jesseca:
For perfectly toasted marshmallows, switch your oven to broil for the last 1–2 minutes—but don’t walk away! They toast fast and can burn in a blink.
Substitutions and Variations
Want to mix things up? This S’mores Dip is super customizable, so feel free to get creative:
- Swap the chocolate: Use chocolate chips, peanut butter cups, or a mix of milk and dark chocolate for a deeper flavor.
- Change the marshmallows: Mini marshmallows melt quicker, or try flavored ones for a fun twist (hello, toasted coconut!).
- Try different dippers: Graham crackers are classic, but pretzels, sliced bananas, strawberries, or shortbread cookies are all delicious options.
- Make it boozy: Add a splash of Bailey’s or Kahlua to the chocolate before baking for an adults-only version.
- Add toppings: Sprinkle crushed candy bars, sea salt, or even a drizzle of caramel over the top before serving.
This dip is made to be fuss-free and fun—so don’t be afraid to play around and make it your own!
How to Make S’mores Dip
This recipe is basically dessert magic in under 10 minutes. No campfire? No problem. Here’s how to make it:
- Add Chocolate: Break up your chocolate bars and place them in an oven-safe dish.
- Sprinkle Marshmallows: Top with a generous layer of marshmallows.
- Oven Bake: Bake at 350°F for 5–10 minutes, until the chocolate is melted and the marshmallows are golden and toasty.
That’s it! Grab your graham crackers and dive in—this dip waits for no one.
Storage and Make-Ahead Instructions
This s’mores dip recipe is best enjoyed fresh and warm—straight out of the oven when the chocolate is melty and the marshmallows are perfectly toasty. But if you do have leftovers (rare, but hey, it happens), here’s how to save and reheat:
- Storage: Let the dip cool completely, then cover the dish tightly with foil or transfer leftovers to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- Reheating: Pop it back in a 350°F oven for 5–7 minutes, or until everything is warm and gooey again. You can also microwave individual portions in short bursts, but the marshmallows may lose their toasty texture.
- Make-Ahead Tip: Want to prep in advance? Layer the chocolate in your baking dish, cover, and refrigerate. Just before serving, add marshmallows and bake. Quick, easy, and party-ready in minutes!
Recipe FAQs
Yes! Chocolate chips work just fine—just use about 1½ to 2 cups. They may not melt as smoothly as bars, but the flavor’s still spot-on.
You can, but the marshmallows won’t get that golden, toasted top. Microwave in 20-second bursts until the chocolate is melted and the marshmallows are puffed.
Serve it immediately while warm. If it starts to firm up, reheat it in the oven or microwave to bring back the gooey texture.
An 8×8-inch pan or a small cast iron skillet works best. You can size up or down depending on how many people you’re serving.
Try pretzels, strawberries, cookies, vanilla wafers, or apple slices. Basically, if it dips—it works!

S’more Dip
Ingredients
- 2-3 chocolate bars
- 1½-2 cups mini marshmallows
- graham crackers or fruit for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Use the middle rack so your marshmallows toast evenly without burning too quickly.
- Break chocolate bars into smaller pieces and layer them evenly in the bottom of an oven-safe baking dish (an 8×8-inch pan or pie dish works great).
- Cover the chocolate completely with marshmallows. You can use regular or mini marshmallows—just make sure they’re in an even layer.
- Place the dish in the oven and bake for 5–10 minutes, keeping a close eye after the 5-minute mark. It’s done when the chocolate is melted and the marshmallows are puffed and golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let it sit for 1–2 minutes before digging in. Serve immediately with graham crackers or your favorite dippers.
