How to Make mini smore cookie skillets

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and lightly grease six 4-inch mini skillets or oven-safe ramekins.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking soda, and salt to combine the dry ingredients evenly.
  3. In a large bowl, cream the softened butter with brown and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until fully incorporated.
  5. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined, then fold in the chocolate chips.
  6. Divide the cookie dough evenly among the mini skillets, pressing it lightly to form an even layer.
  7. Top each skillet generously with mini marshmallows and sprinkle a little extra graham cracker crumbs over the top.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the marshmallows are soft but not fully toasted.
  9. For a perfectly toasted marshmallow top, place the skillets under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to avoid burning.
  10. Allow to cool slightly for 5 minutes before serving warm and gooey.

Tips for the Best Results

  • Use softened butter at room temperature for easier creaming and better dough texture.
  • Don’t overmix the dough once the flour is added to keep the cookies tender.
  • Keep a close eye on the marshmallows during broiling—they can burn quickly.
  • Try stirring in some chopped nuts for extra crunch if you like.
  • Serve the mini skillets with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent treat.

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftover mini smore cookie skillets in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To maintain their gooey texture, reheat them in the oven at 325°F for about 5-7 minutes instead of the microwave.

If you want to save them longer, you can freeze the baked cookie skillets (without marshmallows) for up to 1 month. Thaw in the fridge overnight, add fresh marshmallows on top, and broil briefly before serving.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use regular-sized skillets instead of mini skillets?

Yes, but you will need to adjust the baking time. A larger skillet may take 15-18 minutes to bake through, so keep an eye on the edges and marshmallows to avoid overcooking.

What can I substitute for graham cracker crumbs?

If you don’t have graham crackers, you can crush digestive biscuits or vanilla wafers for a similar flavor and crunch. Just use the same quantity as called for in the recipe.

Can I make this recipe dairy-free?

To make it dairy-free, substitute the unsalted butter with a plant-based butter alternative and use dairy-free chocolate chips. The texture and taste will still be deliciously satisfying.

How do I prevent the marshmallows from burning?

Broil the marshmallows for only 1-2 minutes and watch carefully as they can brown very quickly. Remove them as soon as they turn golden and puff up.
