Directions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2: Layer the Ingredients
- In an 8-inch cast iron skillet (or any oven-safe dish), layer the graham crackers, followed by the chocolate chips and mini marshmallows. Repeat the layers as desired, depending on how thick you want your nachos to be.
Step 3: Bake
- Bake for 10–15 minutes, or until the marshmallows are golden and the chocolate is melted. If you want a crispy top, you can broil them for the last 1–2 minutes (but keep a close eye on them to avoid burning).
Step 4: Drizzle and Serve
- Once baked, drizzle melted chocolate over the top for an extra decadent touch.
- Allow the S’mores Nachos to cool slightly before serving.

Storage/Reheating
- Storage: S’mores Nachos are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Keep in mind that the marshmallows may lose some of their texture after refrigeration.
- Reheating: To reheat, place the nachos in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 5 minutes until the marshmallows and chocolate are soft again.
FAQs
1. Can I make these S’mores Nachos in advance?
While it’s best to serve them fresh, you can prepare the layers ahead of time and bake them when you’re ready to serve.
2. Can I use a different type of pan?
Yes, if you don’t have a cast-iron skillet, you can use any oven-safe dish, such as a casserole dish or even a cake pan.
3. How can I make them even more indulgent?
Top your S’mores Nachos with whipped cream, a drizzle of caramel, or even ice cream for an extra indulgent dessert.
4. Can I use other types of chocolate?
Absolutely! Feel free to experiment with milk chocolate, white chocolate, or even chocolate with caramel for a different flavor profile.
5. Can I use regular marshmallows instead of mini ones?
Yes, you can use regular marshmallows, but mini marshmallows melt more evenly and are easier to spread over the nachos.
