Ingredients You’ll Need

• Dark or Semi-Sweet chocolate: I like to use Ghirardelli 72% Cacao chocolate bars. Use a mix of dark and semi-sweet chocolate if you prefer.
• Marshmallows: While homemade marshmallows would be epic, store-bought works just fine.
• Graham crackers or biscuits: Graham crackers are traditional but feel free to use digestive biscuits or Biscoff cookies as well.
• Optional fruits: Strawberries, bananas, or other fruits offer a fresh twist and are great for dipping as well.

How to Make Air Fryer Smores Dip

1. Prepare Your Pan or Tray: Line your air fryer pan or tray with parchment paper or a liner if available. This prevents sticking and makes cleanup a breeze.
2. Layer the Ingredients: Break the chocolate into pieces and spread them evenly across the bottom of your pan. Add a layer of marshmallows on top, spacing them about 1/2 inch apart to allow for even melting and spreading.
3. Air Fry: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F. Air fry the chocolate and marshmallow layers for 5-8 minutes. The marshmallows should puff up and turn golden brown on top. Keep an eye on them to avoid over-browning.
4. Serve: Carefully remove the pan from the air fryer (it will be hot!) and serve immediately. Pair the dip with graham crackers, biscuits, or fresh fruit for dipping.

Tips for the Perfect Smores Dip

• Use High-Quality Chocolate: Opt for dark or semi-sweet chocolate for the best flavor. Milk chocolate can also be used if you prefer a sweeter dip. I have used chocolate chips in a pinch so feel free to use that if it’s what you have.
• Don’t Overcook: Keep a close watch during the air frying process to ensure the marshmallows don’t burn.
• Experiment with Add-Ins: Add peanut butter, caramel, or crushed candy bars between the chocolate and marshmallows for an extra indulgent twist. I like to get festive during the holidays and garnish with crushed candy canes over the top.
• Serve Immediately: This dip is best enjoyed warm and gooey straight out of the air fryer.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Can I use mini marshmallows instead of large ones?
  Absolutely! Mini marshmallows work just as well and may melt more evenly. Adjust the air frying time slightly to prevent overcooking as the smaller marshmallows will melt faster.
• What if I don’t have an air fryer?
  No air fryer? No Problem! You can make this recipe in an oven. Preheat to 350°F and bake for about 8-10 minutes, watching closely to ensure the marshmallows toast but don’t burn.
• Can I make this dip vegan?
  Of course you can! Use dairy-free chocolate and vegan marshmallows to make this dessert plant-based. Check to make sure your crackers are vegan as well as most brands contain honey or milk.
