How to Make mini smore cookie skillets

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease your mini skillets or ramekins with butter or non-stick spray.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes with a mixer.
3. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined and smooth.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined.
5. Fold in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the cookie dough.
6. Divide the dough evenly among the prepared skillets, pressing it slightly to form a flat cookie base.
7. Scatter mini marshmallows generously on top of each dough-filled skillet.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the marshmallows are lightly toasted and melted.
9. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving warm directly from the skillet for gooey, melty perfection.

Tips for the Best Results

• Use softened butter for easier mixing and a tender cookie texture.
• Don’t overmix the dough once you add the flour to keep cookies soft and chewy.
• Press the dough evenly in the skillet to ensure uniform baking.
• Watch carefully during the last few minutes of baking so marshmallows toast without burning.
• Experiment with white chocolate chips or adding a sprinkle of crushed graham crackers on top for extra flavor.

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftover mini smore cookie skillets in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To keep the marshmallows soft, allow the desserts to come to room temperature before reheating.

For longer storage, wrap each skillet tightly in plastic wrap and foil and freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat in the oven at 300°F for about 10 minutes until warmed through and marshmallows are soft and puffy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make these mini skillets ahead of time?

You can prepare the cookie dough a day ahead and keep it refrigerated. When ready, simply fill the skillets with dough and bake fresh for best results.

What if I don’t have mini skillets or ramekins?

Small oven-safe dishes like muffin tins or even a baking sheet with dough scoops can work, though the presentation will be different. Just adjust baking time accordingly.

Can I use jumbo marshmallows instead of mini marshmallows?

Yes, but jumbo marshmallows will take longer to melt and may not brown evenly. Cutting them into smaller pieces is recommended for best melting and toasting.

Is it possible to make this recipe dairy-free?

Absolutely! Substitute dairy-free butter and use dairy-free chocolate chips. The recipe should work just as well, keeping the delicious flavor and texture.
