Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 16 ounces milk chocolate, finely chopped (or 2 cups of milk chocolate chips)
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 package marshmallows
- 2 sleeves of Graham crackers
Directions
- Preheat the Pellet grill to 425°F.
- When the grill is hot, place a 10-inch skillet on the hot grill. Swirl the butter around the skillet until it melts.
- Add the chocolate and cream, then remove the skillet from the heat and let it sit undisturbed for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Return the pan to the heat and stir the chocolate mixture until well combined.
- Top with the marshmallows (we used the whole bag). Close the grill lid and let cook for 8 to 10 minutes until the marshmallows melt. If you want the marshmallows to turn golden brown, cook for an additional 12 to 15 minutes.
- Serve with Graham crackers or Oreo cookies to scoop into the hot dip.
- You can also stir the melted marshmallows into the chocolate to create an ooey, gooey dip, reminiscent of the filling in a candy bar.
