Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsalted Butter softened
  • ½ cup granulated white sugar
  • cup light brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups all purpose flour
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • 1 cup milk chocolate chips chopped up Hershey bar can be used to for that authentic s’mores vibe
  • ½ cup mini marshmallows frozen and cut in half
  • 4 graham crackers chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl cream together sugar and butter. Add egg and vanilla, mix well.
  • Add dry ingredients and combine until a soft dough forms.
  • ​Finally add chocolate chips, the frozen marshmallows (reserve a handful) and graham crackers. Mix well.
  • Using a cookie scoop or a spoon, drop 2 tbsp sized balls of dough onto a greased or parchment lined cookie sheet. Top each with a few frozen marshmallow halves.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges start to brown.
  • If the cookies have a marshmallow, caramel explosion, use a round cookie cutter or butter knife to quickly press them back into a uniform cookie shape.
  • Transfer baked cookies to a cooling rack.

Notes

  • Freezing the marshmallows helps to prevent them from melting too soon while the cookie bakes in the oven.
  • If your cookie has a melted section, simply use a round cookie cutter to bring it back into shape and create bakery-style edges.
  • You can make these cookies in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment or using an electric hand mixer.
  • Using a food processor is a great way to get even crumbs and avoid big graham cracker pieces.
  • Line pans with silicone mats if you’re out of parchment paper.
  • Chill dough in the fridge for 20 minutes for thicker cookies.
  • Make stuffed cookies. Flatten out the portions of dough, add a bit of marshmallow fluff in the middle, then wrap the dough around the fluff. Your baked cookies will have a deliciously gooey marshmallow center.
  • Freeze cookie dough balls for quick future baking. Once solid, they can be transferred to a storage container and kept frozen for up to 3 months.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 7 days or freeze for 3 months.
