  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt (optional)
  • 10-ounce bag marshmallows, regular or mini size
  • 1 box graham crackers

Directions

Place a 10” heat-proof skillet into a cold oven and preheat to 400°F.

Once the oven is preheated remove the skillet and slowly add the half and half in a few additions. Be careful as the liquid may splatter.

Add chocolates, vanilla and salt (if using) and gently stir together. Top with as many marshmallows that will fit in a single layer.

Turn the oven broiler on to low and place skillet 12” from the broiler*, if possible.

Watch the s’mores dip closely to monitor how much the marshmallows are browning and remove the skillet once desired color is reached, about 1-2 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and let cool for several minutes before serving. Place a kitchen towel or oven mitt over the handle of the pan to remind everyone that the pan is hot.

Notes

  • If you don’t have a broiler or prefer your marshmallows untoasted, simply place the skillet s’mores back into the hot oven for 3-4 minutes or until the marshmallows have started to soften.
