Best S'more Cookies

They’re like campfire s’mores but in cookie form so you don’t need a fire pit. The cookies are soft, the marshmallows get super gooey, and the graham crackers add the perfect crunch. I wanted to bake something fun that would look awesome in photos and these turned out ridiculously delicious.

Dry Ingredients

1. 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2. ½ tsp baking soda
3. ¼ tsp salt

That extra ¼ cup of flour will:

1. Make the cookies hold their shape better
2. Reduce spreading
3. Give a thicker, more “chunky” campfire cookie

Perfect for s’mores.

Wet Ingredients

1. ½ cup butter, softened
2. ½ cup brown sugar
3. ¼ cup white sugar
4. 1 egg
5. 1 tsp vanilla

1. Get Your Baking Tray Ready

1. Put parchment paper on a baking tray
2. OR lightly grease it if you don’t have parchment

This keeps the cookies from sticking.

2. Mix the Dry Stuff

Find a medium bowl and add:

1. Flour
2. Baking soda
3. Salt

Stir with a spoon until it looks even.

3. Make the Butter & Sugar Mixture

In a big bowl:

1. Add the softened butter
2. Add brown sugar
3. Add white sugar

Use a mixer (or a whisk + muscles) to mix until smooth and creamy.

4. Add the Egg + Vanilla

Crack 1 egg in.

Add 1 tsp vanilla.

Mix again.

5. Combine Wet + Dry

Pour the dry bowl into your big bowl.

Mix until it becomes cookie dough.

(Don’t over-mix — just until it comes together.)

6. Add Your Chocolate Chips + Graham Crumbs

1. Dump in the chocolate chips
2. Crush the graham crackers with your hands and add them too

Stir gently until everything looks mixed in evenly.

7. Scoop Your Cookies

Use a spoon or a cookie scoop:

1. Make 12–14 balls
2. Put them evenly on the baking tray
3. Leave space between them so they don't crash into each other

8. Time to Bake (Part 1)

Bake at 350°F for 8 minutes.

They’ll look puffy and soft — that’s perfect.

We’re NOT finished yet.

9. Add the S’mores Topping

This is the fun part.

Take:

1. ½ marshmallow (flat cut side DOWN on the cookie)
2. One small chocolate square (optional)

Press them gently into each warm cookie.

Put the tray back in the oven for 2–3 more minutes.

The marshmallows should:

1. Get a little golden
2. Look melty
3. Stay fluffy

If they turn into lava?

Pull them out early, they’re done.

Optional:

Take a blow torch to the Marshmallows. They start to burn right away, so blow them out right away.
