Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- Extra chocolate chips and marshmallows for topping (optional)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
- Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and mix until well incorporated (about 1 minute).
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
- Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, mini marshmallows, and graham cracker crumbs using a spatula.
- Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the dough to an airtight container.
- Refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- If desired, press extra chocolate chips and marshmallows into the tops of the dough balls.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Take one cookie and place a small dollop of chocolate spread (like Nutella) on the bottom side.
- Top it with another cookie, bottom side down, to create a sandwich. Gently press them together.
- For an extra touch, drizzle melted chocolate over the top of the assembled cookie bites.
- For an authentic S’mores experience, toast some mini marshmallows using a kitchen torch and place them on top before serving.
Notes
- Chilling the dough is crucial for maintaining the shape of the cookies while baking.
- Feel free to customize the toppings with your favorite chocolate or marshmallow variations.
