Ingredients
For approximately 20 cookies, you’ll need:
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 cup brown sugar (packed)
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 eggs (room temperature)
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 ½ cups mini marshmallows
- 1 cup graham crackers (crushed into chunks)
Optional topping: Extra marshmallows, chocolate chunks, or graham cracker pieces for a picture-perfect cookie finish.
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat Your Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Step 2: Mix the Wet Ingredients
- Using a handheld or stand mixer, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until the mixture is smooth and creamy (about 2 minutes).
- Add the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, and mix until fully combined.
Step 3: Combine the Dry Ingredients
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until a dough forms.
Step 4: Add the S’mores Essentials
- Fold in the chocolate chips, mini marshmallows, and graham cracker chunks. Be careful not to overmix—just combine everything evenly.
Step 5: Scoop and Shape
- Scoop out dough balls (about 1 ½ tablespoons per cookie) and place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving enough space for spreading.
- For an Instagram-worthy look, press a few extra marshmallows or chocolate chunks onto the top of each dough ball.
Step 6: Bake
- Bake for 9–11 minutes, or until the cookies are golden around the edges but still soft and gooey in the center.
- Don’t overbake! They’ll continue to firm up as they cool.
Step 7: Cool and Enjoy
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
- Serve warm for the ultimate gooey s’mores experience!
Tips for Perfect S’mores Cookies
- Don’t Skip the Parchment Paper: Marshmallows can get gooey and sticky when they melt, so lining your baking sheets makes cleanup easier.
- Chill Your Dough (Optional): If your cookies are spreading too much in the oven, pop the dough in the fridge for 30 minutes before baking.
- Storage: Store any leftovers (if there are any!) in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can reheat them in the microwave for 10–15 seconds to bring back that gooey texture.
