Soft S'mores Cookies

Prep Time25 minutes
Cook Time12 minutes
Total Time37 minutes
Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Servings: 32 cookies

Ingredients

Cookies:

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) butter room temperature
  • 1 ½ cups (330 grams) light brown sugar packed
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups (170 grams) graham cracker crumbs about 10 full graham crackers, turned to flour in a food processor and sifted for large chunks
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 ¼ cups (270 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1 (3-ounce container) marshmallow bits*
  • 2 cups mixed milk and semi-sweet chocolate chunks

Topping:

  • 1 cup mini marshmallows

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix the butter and sugar on medium speed for 2 minutes until light and fluffy. Turn the speed down to medium low and add the eggs one at a time, then the vanilla. Scrape the sides of the bowl as necessary, ensuring the mixture is cohesive.
  • With the mixer on medium-low speed, add the graham cracker crumbs, baking soda, and salt, mixing until incorporated.
  • Turn the speed to low and stir in the flour until just combined. Stir in the marshmal­low bits and chopped milk chocolate until evenly incorporated.
  • Using a standard (1.5-ounce) cookie scoop, drop balls of dough about 2 inches apart onto the baking sheet.
  • Bake the cookies for 5-6 minutes, remove the pan from the oven, and press 3 mini marshmallows carefully on the tops of the cookies. Return to the oven and continue baking for 4-6 minutes, until the marshmallows puff up and turn golden. The cookie edges should be lightly golden on the edges and tops as well.
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then serve warm or transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • These can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Notes

If you cannot find marshmallow bits (they should be at Target or a chain supermarket) and you don't want to go to the trouble of making your own (I don't blame you), it's okay to leave them out.
