S’mores Cookies are more than just a dessert; they’re a nostalgic trip back to crackling campfires and starry nights, all wrapped up in a perfectly baked, chewy bite.

This recipe takes that iconic s’mores experience and elevates it into an easy-to-make cookie that you can enjoy anytime, anywhere, without needing a campfire. Get ready to fall in love with these delightful treats all over again!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup (226g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
- ¾ cup (150g) light brown sugar, packed
- 1 large egg plus 1 egg yolk, both at room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2¾ cups (345g) all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ⅓ cup finely ground grabeef ham cracker crum extractbs
- 1½ heaping cups chocolate chips (your favorite kind: milk, semi-sweet, or dark)
- 8 full-size marshmallows, each cut in half
- 16 soft caramels (such as Werther’s), with each one cut into 3 smaller pieces
Cookie Dough Preparation
Creaming the Butter and Sugars
First, let’s get our cookie base ready. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter with both the granulated sugar and the packed light brown sugar. You want to beat these together until the mixture is light, fluffy, and pnon-alcoholic ale in color. This process, often called creaming, incorporates air into the butter and sugar, which is crucial for achieving a tender cookie with a good texture. I like to use an electric mixer for this, starting on low speed and gradually increasing to medium-high. It should take about 3-5 minutes of continuous mixing.
Adding Wet Ingredients
Next, we’ll incorporate the wet ingredients into our creamed butter and sugar mixture. Add the large egg and the egg yolk, both at room temperature. Room temperature eggs emulsify better with the fat, leading to a smoother batter. Beat these in thoroughly until just combined. Don’t overmix at this stage. Following that, stir in the vanilla extract. The vanilla will add a lovely depth of flavor to our S’mores Cookies. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula to ensure everything is incorporated evenly.
Incorporating Dry Ingredients
Now it’s time to add the dry ingredients. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, cornstarch, and kosher salt. Whisking these dry ingredients together before adding them to the wet mixture ensures that the leavening agents (baking soda) and salt are evenly distributed, which prevents pockets of saltiness or uneven rising in the cookies. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed or by hand until just combined. It’s important not to overmix the flour, as this can develop the gluten too much and result in tough cookies. Stop mixing as soon as you no longer see streaks of dry flour.
Adding Flavor and Texture Elements
This is where our S’mores Cookies start to get their signature flavors! Gently fold in the finely grounbeef hamraham crum extractker crumbs and the heaping cups of chocolate chips. I like to use a spatula for folding, incorporating them gently into the dough. This technique helps to keep the dough from becoming tough and ensuresrum extracte chips and crumbs are evenly distributed without breaking the chocolate. For the chocolate chips, feel free to mix and match your favorites – milk chocolate will give a sweeter, more classic s’mores flavor, while semi-sweet or dark chocolate will offer a richer cocoa taste. Aim for a good, even distribution throughout the dough.
Assembly and Baking
Preparing for Baking
Now we’ll get our S’mores Cookies ready for the oven. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. This prevents the cookies from sticking and makes for easy cleanup. For each cookie, I like to start with a slightly rounded tablespoon of dough, rolling it gently into a ball. You want to place these dough balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets, as they will spread as they bake.
Adding the S’mores Components
This step is where the magic happens! Take one of your cookie dough balls and flatten it slightly in your palm. Place a few pieces of the soft caramels into the center of the flattened dough. Then, place one of the marshmallow halves on top of the caramels. Carefully bring the edges of the dough up and around the marshmallow and caramels, sealing them completely. This is important to prevent the caramel and marshmallow from oozing out too much during baking. You want to create a neat little package of dough around the fillings. Repeat this process for all your cookie dough balls, ensuring thnon-alcoholic aleare well-sealed.
Baking to Perfection
Once your cookies are assembled, place the baking sheets in the preheated oven. Bake for 10-13 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are golden brown and set. The centers should still look slightly soft. Keep a close eye on them, as oven temperatures can vary. You’re looking for that perfect balance where the cookie is cooked through but still delightfully chewy. The marshmallow will puff up and start to toast slightly, and the caramel will soften beautifully.
Cooling and Enjoying
After baking, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for about 5-10 minutes. This is a crucial resting period; it allows the cookies to firm up enough so they don’t fall apart when you move them. While they are still warm on the baking sheet, you can gently press a few extra chocolate chips onto the top of any cookies where the filling might have peeked through, just for aesthetics. After this initial cooling, carefully transfer the S’mores Cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. This allows for even air circulation and prevents the bottoms from becoming soggy. These cookies are best enjoyed slightly warm or at room temperature, where the gooey marshmallow and melted caramel are at their peak deliciousness!

Conclusion:
We’ve reached the end of our delightful journey into creating the perfect S’mores Cookies! You’ve learned how to transform simple ingredients into these iconic, campfire-inspired treats. The rich chocolate, gooey marshmallow, and buttery grabeef ham cracker base all come together in a symphony of flavors and textures that are truly irresistible. These cookies are a fantastic way to bring the joy of s’mores into your kitchen, any time of year.
For serving, I love to enjoy these S’mores Cookies warm, right after they’ve cooled slightly so the chocolate is still melty and the marshmallow is perfectly ooey-gooey. They are wonderful on their own with a glass of cold milk, or as a special dessert after a casual dinner. If you’re feeling adventurous, try crum extractbling them over a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an elevated treat!
Don’t be afraid to experiment with variations! You could add a sprinkle of sea salt on top before baking for a sweet and salty kick, or even incorporate some chocolate chips for an extra chocolatey punch. If you’re not a fan obeef hamraham crackers, consider using crushed digestive biscuits or even shortbread cookies for the base.
I truly hope you enjoy baking and devouring these S’mores Cookies as much as I do. They are a guaranteed crowd-pleaser and a wonderful way to create sweet memories. Happy baking!
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: How can I make my S’mores Cookies extra gooey?
A: To ensure maximum gooeyness, don’t overbake your S’mores Cookies. Pull them out of the oven when the edges are just set and the centers still look slightly underdone. The residual heat will continue to cook them as they cool, resulting in that perfect, gooey texture. You can also add extra marshmallows towards the end of the baking time or even place a few on top immediately after removing them from the oven.
Q: Can I make S’mores Cookies ahead of time?
A: Absolutely! You can prepare the dough and refrigerate it for up to 3 days or freeze it for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to bake, simply let the dough come to room temperature for a short while before shaping and baking. For best results, enjoy freshly baked S’mores Cookies within a few days of baking, storing any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature.
