Ingredients
  

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 cup mini marshmallows

3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional; walnuts or pecans are excellent choices)

Extra graham crackers, for serving

Extra mini marshmallows, for garnishing

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it's hot and ready for baking.

    Prepare the Base: In a spacious mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir the mixture until all the crumbs are thoroughly coated and achieve a texture akin to wet sand.

      Layer the Graham Cracker Base: Take half of your graham cracker mixture and evenly spread it across the bottom of a cast-iron skillet or an oven-safe dish, forming a solid base.

        Add the Chocolate and Nuts: Evenly sprinkle the chocolate chips over the graham cracker base, making sure to cover it well. If you're using nuts, distribute them evenly over the chocolate chips for added crunch and flavor.

          Layer the Marshmallows: Pile the mini marshmallows generously over the chocolate chips, ensuring an even distribution for that gooey marshmallow layer.

            Top with Remaining Crumbs: Take the remaining graham cracker mixture and sprinkle it on top of the marshmallows, adding texture and further flavor.

              Bake the Dip: Place your skillet in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 10-12 minutes. Keep an eye on it until the chocolate is melted and the marshmallows have turned a beautiful golden brown.

                Broil for Extra Toastiness: For an irresistible, toasty finish, switch your oven to broil and let it cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Watch closely to prevent burning and achieve that perfectly toasted marshmallow top.

                  Serve: Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and allow it to sit for a couple of minutes to cool slightly. Serve warm, paired with extra graham crackers for dipping. For an indulgent touch, garnish with a handful of extra mini marshmallows on top.
