Press half the cookie dough into the bottom of the skillet.
Layer chocolate, graham cracker pieces, and marshmallows evenly over the dough.
Cover with the remaining cookie dough, pressing gently to seal. Top with a few extra pieces of chocolate, marshmallows, and graham crackers for presentation.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the top is golden brown but the center remains soft.
Let rest for 30 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set while staying gooey.

FAQs

1. Can I use store-bought cookie dough?

Yes, it works perfectly and saves time—just divide it into two layers.

2. Do I need a cast iron skillet?

No, any oven-safe skillet or baking dish of similar size will work.

3. Will it still taste good if slightly underbaked?

Definitely—slightly underbaking creates a fudgy, gooey center that’s part of the charm.

4. Can I skip the graham crackers?

You can, but they provide the signature crunch and s’mores flavor.

5. Can I make it ahead?

Yes, assemble in the skillet, cover, and refrigerate. Bake just before serving.

6. How should I serve it?

Warm, straight from the skillet with spoons—or with scoops of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.

7. What if the top browns too fast?

Cover loosely with foil partway through baking to prevent over-browning.

8. Can I use mini marshmallows?

Yes—mini marshmallows distribute more evenly, but cut-up large marshmallows also work.

9. How do I make it less sweet?

Use dark chocolate and reduce the marshmallow amount slightly.

10. Can I freeze leftovers?

Yes—cool completely, wrap well, and freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat before serving.
