Ingredients
Scale
Dip Ingredients
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup heavy cream, warmed
- 1 bag ghost marshmallows (or 4 packages ghost Peeps)
- Mini chocolate chips, for ghost eyes
For Serving
- Graham crackers
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) to prepare for baking the dip evenly and quickly.
- Assemble Dip: In the bottom of a 9-inch oven-proof skillet, baking dish, or pie dish, spread out the semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly. Pour the warmed heavy cream on top to help the chocolate melt smoothly.
- Add Marshmallows: Cover the chocolate and cream mixture completely with a single layer of ghost marshmallows. This ensures a gooey and sweet top layer as they melt.
- Create Faces: Place mini chocolate chips over the marshmallows where the eyes and mouth would be to mimic ghost faces, as the pre-drawn faces on the marshmallows will fade during baking.
- Bake: Place the assembled dip into the preheated oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the chocolate is fully melted and the marshmallows turn golden and slightly toasted.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and serve the dip warm. Provide graham crackers on the side for dipping into the luscious, melty s’mores mixture.
Notes
- Use an oven-safe skillet or dish to ensure safe baking and easy serving.
- Warming the heavy cream before mixing helps the chocolate melt evenly and creates a smooth dip.
- Mini chocolate chips added fresh before baking preserve the ghost faces’ details better than pre-cut designs.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor, as the dip firms up once cooled.
- For a dairy-free version, consider using vegan chocolate chips and coconut cream instead of heavy cream.
