# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • No need to wrestle with smoky campfire logistics, yet you still get the same roasted marshmallow magic.
  • The skillet stays warm for ages, making every bite perfectly gooey and inviting.
02 -
  • Don&apost leave the marshmallows unwatched; they brown fast and can go from golden to burnt in seconds.
  • Waiting too long to scoop means the chocolate will harden, so serve immediately for peak gooiness.
03 -
  • Never crowd the marshmallows too tightly or they won&apost toast evenly — leave a little breathing room.
  • Drizzling a bit of sea salt over the chocolate before baking brings the flavor to life.
