How To Make The Best S’mores Cookies
Follow along with the best S’mores Cookies step-by-step process photos and then find the printable recipe below!
Gather all of the ingredients you will need to make these incredible cookies!
In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar.
If using unsalted butter, add a pinch of kosher salt (about ½ teaspoon).
Once combined, whisk in the egg and vanilla extract.
Next, add the flour and baking soda. Stir until no large lumps of dry ingredients remain.
Add the chocolate chips, marshmallows, and graham crackers.
Gently fold them into the cookie dough, making sure not to break up the graham cracker.
Place the cookie dough in the fridge for 30 minutes to chill. Don’t skip this step – otherwise, the dough will be too soft and spread too much.
While the cookie dough chills, preheat the oven to 375F.
Once chilled, scoop 2-tablespoon-sized cookies onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, making sure to place them at least 2” apart.
Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set and golden brown.
Remove the cookies from the oven and tap the tray on the counter.
This will help sink the middles so the cookies set.
Allow the cookies to cool a bit before moving them to a wire rack to come to room temperature.
Garnish with flakey sea salt while still warm, if desired.
Grab one, two, or even three, and enjoy!
Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days … if they even last that long!
