National S’mores Day is just a few days away on August 10th! I figured the best way to celebrate is sharing my s’mores cookie recipe! This recipe is easy to whip up and is sure to please!

I also made a video tutorial for this recipe! Make sure to check it out here:

Equipment:

• 2 mixing bowls
• Rubber Spatula
• Whisk
• Measuring cups
• Measuring spoons
• Baking sheets
• Parchment paper
• Medium Cookie Scoop

• 

• 

Ingredients:

• 2 cups (240 grams) graham cracker crumbs
• 1/2 cup (70 grams) all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup (50 grams) granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup (50 grams) brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
• 1/2 cup (1 sticks or 110 grams) unsalted butter
• 2 large eggs, room temperature
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups (70 grams) marshmallow bits*
• 5 ounces (140 grams) mini chocolate chips

Directions:

1. To an aluminum foil lined baking sheet, spread the marshmallow bits into an even layer. Place that in the broiler and let them toast on one side. Once they start to get some color, take the pan out of the oven and let it cool for about 1-2 minutes. Move them around and flip them upside down to toast the other side. Pop the pan back in the broiler and let it get toasty, which should take less than 1-2 minutes. Set it aside to cool completely.
2. Preheat the oven to 375°F, or 191°C. To start the batter, we add the graham cracker crumbs, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, salt, and optional ground cinnamon to a mixing bowl. Give that a quick mix and set it aside.
3. To a separate large mixing bowl, add the unsalted butter and melt it in the microwave for about 20-30 seconds, or until the butter is just melted. If you prefer, you can certainly melt the butter in a pan on the stove.
4. Add the dry ingredient mixture to the melted butter and mix everything together. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and then mix until everything is just combined. Set this aside either on the counter or place it in the fridge for about 5 minutes to slightly cool.
5. While the dough briefly chills, break up the marshmallow bits that have completely cooled by now. Once that’s done, set aside a couple of tablespoons of the toasted marshmallow bits for later.
6. To the cookie dough, add the majority of the toasted marshmallow bits and mini chocolate chips. Mix everything until it’s just combined.
7. Use a medium size cookie scoop to scoop the dough onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Add a few of the reserved toasted marshmallow bits to the top of each cookie.
8. Bake for 8-10 minutes. Once they come out of the oven, let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack or storage container.

Notes:

• *You will swap this ingredient for marshmallow fluff if you decide to make Version 2. See next section.

S’mores Cookies Version #2:

These cookies are made the exact same way as the first version; however, do not add toasted marshmallow bits. In this version, mix the dough, let it chill, only add the mini chocolate chips, scoop onto the cookie sheet, and bake. Once they come out of the oven, let them slightly cool before proceeding to the alternate step.

Use a mini measuring cups that looks like a shot glass, or a something similar, to gently press into the center of the baked cookies. Make sure to not press all the way down because you will break the cookie. Next, use a piping bag to add a little bit of marshmallow fluff to the center of the cookies. Use a kitchen torch to toast the marshmallow fluff, but be careful to not burn the sides of the cookies. As always, please be extremely careful when using a kitchen torch.

I love that this version give me more of that gooeyness that I love about marshmallows; however, marshmallow fluff becomes very runny as it sets, so make sure to not fill the cookies with too much of it. These are definitely tasty, but make sure that you store them completely flat, unless you want marshmallow fluff to run out of the cookies and all over the container.
