We’ve all been guilty of doomscrolling on our favorite social media platform, but what happens when this leads to an insightful discovery? A year ago, I was scrolling through my #FYP (for you page) on TikTok, and this snack dip popped up. Not only was I intrigued, but I was also shocked because how could something so simple yet clever be so satisfyingly nostalgic and tasty?
TikTok users were also shocked that they hadn’t thought of making this snack before. However, I was happily surprised by how easy it looked to whip up. TikTok user Cecilie Bak Klemens shared the video of her making the mouthwatering dip in her air fryer, and that post has since garnered more than 75 million views and a host of hilariously relatable comments, including some from well-known brands.
“All of a sudden we know what we’re making for breakfast, lunch and dinner tomorrow,” Pinterest commented on the now-viral video.
I knew I had to try this snack, and I’m happy to report that it was as simple as the 12-second TikTok made it seem. Here’s how you can make this s’mores dip whenever you’re craving it — no fire pit needed.

How to make air fryer s’mores dip
Step 1: Line your air fryer with parchment paper that’s trimmed to the size of your basket, or use a removable air fryer basket that can be cleaned separately. (This step is optional but will cut down on cleaning time.)
Step 2: Place marshmallows inside the air fryer, along with chunks of the chocolate of your choice. (We used classic Hershey’s chocolate.)
You can use as many, or as few, marshmallows as you like, then add an equal amount of chocolate pieces.
Step 3: Cook at 375 degrees for 10 minutes or until the marshmallows are golden brown.
Step 4: Let the dip cool slightly, then enjoy it with graham crackers.
The outside of your s’mores dip will be slightly crunchy and golden brown, and the inside will be perfectly gooey.
If the dip hardens while you’re eating it, you can pop it back in the air fryer for a few minutes until you get the desired consistency again.

How to clean your air fryer

Air fryer s’mores dip FAQ
Can you make traditional s’mores using an air fryer?
Yes! If you want to skip the dip and make your s’mores whole, you can place the bottom graham cracker, chocolate and marshmallow in the air fryer (don’t forget the parchment paper!) and toast it for a few minutes. When it’s done, use another graham cracker to squish your creation together.
Is there anything you can’t cook in the air fryer?
