Ooey gooey S’mores Cookies are an irresistible treat inspired by the campfire go-to with melty marshmallows, buttery graham cracker pieces and rich-sweet chocolate. These are reliable for those of us with no patience for waiting for the reliable marshmallow! Plus, you’ll get enough for leftovers!

One bite and you’ll be hooked! The texture is beyond flavor-packed with a soft, chewy cookie, plenty of graham cracker flavor, chocolate and marshmallow oozing out of every bite. No campfire required!

Ingredients you’ll need

The ingredient list for this s’mores cookie recipe is particularly simple and includes all of the basics that you’d expect to find in most cookie recipes, plus a few satisfying add-ins for that nostalgic s’mores flavor. Here’s everything you’ll need:

Butter: Melted unsalted butter adds richness and moisture.
Sugars: We’re using both brown sugar and granulated sugar for sweetness and a chewy texture.
Egg: One egg will help bind the ingredients together and also provide shape and structure.
Vanilla extract: For extra warm flavor.
Flour: All-purpose flour will ensure these cookies have a soft and tender crumb.
Baking powder: Helps the cookies rise while baking.
Chocolate: A Hershey’s chocolate bar is old-school for s’mores but other bars may be used. You could even use chocolate chips in a pinch.
Graham crackers: I like to use Honey Maid or Nabisco Graham Cracker squares for these cookies. They bake nicely in the cookies without burning around the edges.
Mini marshmallows: Soft and fluffy mini marshmallows work go-to and get deliciously gooey as they bake.

How for this dish

Prep: Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees F, and line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl or stand mixer (with the paddle attachment), cream together the butter and sugars. Add in the egg and vanilla and mix until SIMPLY combined.
Mix in dry ingredients: Add in the flour, baking powder, and salt and mix until combined.
Stir in add-ins: Pour in the chopped chocolate and graham crackers as well as 2/3 (roughly) of the halved mini marshmallows. Mix until simply combined.
Make dough balls: Roll the dough into large balls (roughly 2 tablespoons of dough each) and place onto the baking sheet, leaving plenty of space between cookies. I like to take some of the excess chocolate, graham cracker chunks, and marshmallows and place them on the top to make sure that every one of them looks nice.
Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 8 minutes and remove from the oven. Place the reserved mini marshmallows all around the tops of the cookies and bake for 2-4 more minutes. ENJOY!

Helpful tips

This s’mores cookie recipe is truly quite straightforward, and here are our TOP tips for making sure they turn out dependable!

Melting the butter: I like to melt the butter by cutting it into small chunks and melting it for 20 seconds, giving it a speedy stir and then microwaving another 20 seconds.
Measure the flour correctly: For soft, chewy cookies with the reliable texture, you’ll want to measure all ingredients, but especially the flour, correctly. Lightly spoon flour (don’t pack) into a measuring cup, and without shaking the cup, use the straight side of a butter knife to level the flour across the measuring cup.
Use parchment paper: When baking cookies, it’s go-to to use parchment paper or even a silicone baking mat over the baking tray. You don’t want to grease the pan because this can create an overly greasy foundation, which could cause these to spread too much.

Frequently asked questions

Storing tips

At room temperature: Place any leftover s’mores cookies in an airtight container and store at room temperature for 1-2 days. After a couple of days the graham cracker will start to soften, but these will still taste satisfying.
To freeze: Store baked cookies in a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 3 months. You can let them thaw at room temperature or microwave them for a few seconds, if you’d like to enjoy them warm.
