Happy Monday everyone!! Ok, so I know this recipe is seasonally behind, but when it comes to things I’m craving, I say to heck with the seasonal stuff hehe. I personally think Girl Scout cookie season should be year round because, hello, yum.
I am aware though, that you’re either an absolute lover of the Girl Scout Samoa cookie or an absolute hater, I have yet to find anyone on the fence in this matter, scientific fact y’all. Obviously I am an absolute lover of Samoas, they totally encompass some of my favorite things if only I could put Samoas & Tom Hiddleston together coconut, caramel and chocolate, yum!
Soo anyways, I thought a s’mores dip that was based off of Samoas would be super delicious, and it totally is. The way the caramel, coconut and chocolate become all melty and gooey, then the wonderfully toasted marshmallows on top which are all eaten off of graham crackers, droool y’all.
Of course I couldn’t bake this stuff all together in a regular ole’ pan, I had to bake in an iron skillet because let’s be real, nothing holds the heat in and keeps everything all gooey the way a cast iron skillet does mmmm.
I hope this dip can bring some joy to those having some Monday blues, or just happen to love Samoas too.
Because I couldn’t find caramel nibs, I used full sized caramels and cut them in half…
place them in the bottom of your skillet or pan…
get the caramel all nice and melty…
now chocolate on top, look at it already melting, mmmm…
now some sweetened flaked coconut…
time to cut some mallows in half…
now on top of the other awesomeness and back into the oven…
- 3 (1.55 Ounce) Hershey's Chocolate Bars.
- 1 Cup of Sweetened Flaked Coconut.
- 11 Ounce Bag of Caramels (Used About 16 Caramels, Halved).
- 14 Large Marshmallows, Halved.
- Caramel Sauce For Drizzling (Optional).
- Chocolate Sauce For Drizzling (Optional).
- 8" Iron Skillet.
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
- Cut about 16 caramels in half, then layer them in the bottom of your skillet, then bake for 9 minutes or until the caramels have started to melt.
- Now place the chocolate bars in pieces on top of the caramel, then evenly layer the coconut on top of the chocolate, then place the marshmallows that have been cut in half with the cut end down onto the coconut then bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the marshmallows are toasted and bubbly.
