Why I Love This Recipe
This dish hits all the happy places:
- 🍫 Chocolate that melts into every bite
- 🔥 Marshmallows that puff and caramelize inside

It’s ridiculously easy but feels like a special-occasion brunch or dessert. And it’s flexible—try it on a griddle, over a campfire, or even in an air fryer!
📝 Ingredients
- 8 slices of sandwich bread (white, brioche, or challah work best)
- 1 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or milk chocolate)
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup milk
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted (for frying)
🔁 Ingredient Tips & Swaps
- Bread: Thicker, softer bread like brioche holds up better to stuffing and soaking.
- Chocolate: Use chocolate bars, chips, or even Nutella!
- Marshmallows: Mini marshmallows melt more evenly, but you can slice large ones if needed.
- Milk: Whole milk = richest flavor, but almond or oat milk work too.
👨🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
1️⃣ Prep the Skillet
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add a little melted butter.
2️⃣ Make the Egg Wash
In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs and milk until fully combined.
3️⃣ Stuff the Bread
Lay out your 8 bread slices.
On 4 of them, sprinkle chocolate chips and mini marshmallows—leave a little border.
Top with the remaining bread slices and press the edges together to seal. (Optional: use a fork to crimp the edges or trim crusts to help lock it in.)
4️⃣ Dip & Cook
Dip each sandwich into the egg mixture, coating both sides.
Add to the hot skillet with melted butter. Cook 2–3 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula until golden brown and the insides are gooey.
5️⃣ Serve Warm
Cut in halves or quarters and serve immediately. Optional: dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with syrup for extra drama.
🔥 Tips for Success
- Seal the edges well—this prevents all that delicious filling from escaping.
- Cook low and slow for maximum melt without burning the outside.
- Serve immediately—they’re best fresh off the skillet when the chocolate is lava-like.
