Ingredients

Servings:6
  • 2 cups Heavy cream
  • 1 cup Whole milk
  • 1/2 cup Granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 4 cups Large marshmallows
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1/4 cup Graham cracker crumbs(optional)
  • 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large heavy-bottomed saucepan, whisk together the heavy cream, milk, sugar, and cocoa powder over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Stir the mixture constantly until it reaches a gentle simmer, being careful not to let it boil over.

  3. 3

    Reduce the heat to low and stir in the chocolate chips and salt until the chocolate is completely melted and the liquid is smooth.

  4. 4

    Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and the butter for a glossy finish.

  5. 5

    Pour the hot chocolate mixture into a buttered 9x9 inch baking dish or individual ramekins.

  6. 6

    Layer the marshmallows evenly over the top of the liquid until the entire surface is covered.

  7. 7

    Place the dish under a broiler for 1-2 minutes, watching very closely, until the marshmallows are toasted golden brown and beginning to melt together.

  8. 8

    Let the delight sit for 5 minutes to set slightly before serving warm with a spoon.
