1/4 cup of blueberries

Then, sprinkle chopped strawberries over the marshmallows, followed by a layer of blueberries. Repeat these layers until you have used up all of your ingredients.
Bake and Serve
Place your dish in the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the chocolate is melted and the marshmallows are golden brown. Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve with graham crackers for dipping and enjoy the deliciousness of this July 4th s'mores dip.
Get Creative
Don't be afraid to get creative with this recipe. You can swap out the strawberries and blueberries for other seasonal fruits such as raspberries or blackberries.
