Equipment:
- Mixing bowls
- Electric mixer (optional)
- Spatula
- Baking sheets
- Parchment paper
- Cooling rack
Ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chunks or chips
- ½ cup mini marshmallows
- ½ cup graham cracker pieces (about 2 full graham crackers, broken into chunks)
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside. - Combine Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. - Cream Butter and Sugars
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes) using an electric mixer or a whisk. - Add Egg and Vanilla
Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined. - Mix in Dry Ingredients
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix. - Add the S’mores Mix-Ins
Gently fold in the chocolate chunks, mini marshmallows, and graham cracker pieces until evenly distributed throughout the dough. - Scoop and Bake
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Slightly flatten each cookie, as they will puff up a bit while baking. - Bake
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the marshmallows have begun to melt and caramelize. Be careful not to over-bake, as you want these cookies to stay soft and gooey. - Cool and Serve
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. Enjoy warm for the best gooey marshmallow experience!
Presentation Ideas:
- Serve cookies on a rustic wooden board with extra graham crackers and chocolate bars for a campfire feel.
- For a special treat, sandwich a scoop of vanilla ice cream between two cookies to make a s’mores ice cream sandwich.
- Drizzle melted chocolate over the tops of the cookies for a decorative touch.
Tips:
- For extra gooey cookies, add a few extra marshmallows on top of each cookie halfway through baking.
- Be sure to use mini marshmallows; large marshmallows will melt too quickly and spread too much.
- These cookies are best enjoyed the day they’re baked but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
