Peanut Butter S’Mores Dip Recipe
Peanut Butter S’Mores Dip is one of my favorite summer party recipes, because it takes almost no time to make or prepare, and you can’t go wrong with the combination of chocolate, peanut butter, and marshmallows! I like to use mini marshmallows because you can just pour them on top, but you can use the bigger marshmallows if you have them. You can also add other ingredients to make it different every time, like Nutella, or caramel.

Tips For Making S’Mores Dip
- Turn on the broiler to get that lightly burnt look on the top of the marshmallows, but watch it really closely. The marshmallows will burn really fast, so you want to make sure to pull them out after about 1-2 minutes.
- Make mini s’mores dip in small ramekins for a single servings if you’re going to serve this as a dessert for a dinner party.
- Try making your s’mores dip with graham cracker crust!
- You can use dark chocolate chips if you want the flavor, but I recommend using a milk chocolate because it will melt the easiest.
- If you don’t have gluten free graham crackers handy, try dipping bananas, strawberries, or even gluten free pretzels.
How do you melt chocolate for s’mores?
The chocolate in this s’mores dip melts in the oven for this recipe. I like to use a cast iron skillet, because it has a better heat distribution. You could also use a dutch oven if you have one.
Technically, you could get away with another oven-safe skillet in a pinch, but the cheaper the metal, the more you may run the risk of burning the chocolate or melting unevenly. If you don’t have a cast iron skillet or dutch oven, your next best option would be to make s’mores dip in a glass pan.
Can you microwave marshmallows?
Yes, you can microwave marshmallows to melt them, but you want to do so slowly at 20-30 second increments, or the marshmallow may burst and make a mess. If you want to make s’mores dip in the microwave, I would use a glass bowl. Melt the chocolate first, stirring, and take your time so the chocolate doesn’t burn. Then add the marshmallows until just melted.
Also, keep in mind that the golden brown marshmallow tops we get from the oven won’t happen in the microwave. But it will be gooey, and that’s almost good enough!
Can you make S’Mores Dip ahead of time?
You can assemble s’mores dip ahead of time, cover it in plastic wrap, and set it aside for later. You do not need to refrigerate the uncooked dip. When you are ready, just pop it in the oven until it’s melted through and toasty, about 10 minutes.

These sound quite yummy. But, sadly, marshmallows are not vegetarian. They’re made with gelatin, which is animal based. Marshmallow creme, on the other hand, is vegetarian, or at least the ones I’ve seen are. Do you think it could be substituted in this recipe?
That is good to know! I think you could use Marshmallow creme, but I’ve never tried that in the oven, so I would watch it really closely at first to make sure it doesn’t burn too quickly. If it does, you can try tenting a piece of tinfoil over it, and lowering the oven temperature. Let me know how it goes!
