S’MORES COOKIES
Yesterday was busy with swimming, BBQing, and relaxing. My Laundry Monday turned into Laundry Tuesday topped with an additional load of damp swimming towels.
Being the good parents we are we counted swimming as baths for the kids and sent them to bed smelling of sunblock.
Then as I snuggled on the couch to write a post about these cookies I brought to our BBQ I just…could not…keep…my eyes…open. *Snooze*
S’MORES COOKIES RECIPE
These S’mores Cookies are a perfect hello to summer. I’ve seen these floating around the web and you know how much I loved these S’mores Bars so I had to give ’em a try.
This S’mores Cookies recipe with graham crackers has a graham cracker base and has a chocolate chip cookie sprinkled with chocolate and marshmallows topping it.
The crunch of the graham cracker with the gooey cookie is the perfect combination.
Place tablespoons of dough on each graham cracker square.
Here there are almost done…not quite all the way melted yet.

HOW TO MAKE S’MORES COOKIES
S’mores Cookies
These S'mores Cookies are graham crackers topped with chocolate chip marshmallow cookie dough and Hershey squares.
Ingredients
- 11 Tablespoons unsalted butter , softened
- 1 cup brown sugar , packed
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- optional 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 ½ cups flour
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 3 regular sized Hershey’s bars , broken into pieces
- 1-2 packages graham crackers , broken into squares
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, sea salt and cinnamon to combine. Set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream butter with white and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix until combined.
- Add the flour mixture to the butter mixer and combine on low speed.
- Fold in the chocolate chips and marshmallows. Chill dough in refrigerator for 1 hour to overnight (I did one batch right away and another after chilling overnight and found there was no difference.)
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line baking pans with parchment paper. I used one 11x17 pan and one 9x13 pan but you can really use any sized pans you want.
- Lay out graham crackers side by side on the pans as close as possible (they should be touching). I used 16 graham cracker squares on one pan and 10 squares on another. You may have to add or remove graham crackers according to how much dough you have. If you want your cookies thicker you will use more dough and less graham crackers.
- Place tablespoons of dough on graham crackers about 1 – 1 ½ inches apart. I averaged about 1 1/2 tablespoons of dough per graham cracker square as seen in the picture above. Press down slightly with fingertips.
- Bake for 5 minutes then remove from oven to press Hershey’s bar pieces on to the top. You can place as many pieces or as little as you want depending how much chocolate flavor you want.
- Bake for an additional 5 – 7 minutes or more if your cookies are thicker. They will be done when the edges begin to turn golden brown. Remove to a wire rack to cool. For clean cutting make sure cookies are completely cool and cut with a sharp knife.
Recipe Notes
Source: Ice Cream Before Dinner
These look absolutely delicious! Not sure why some people say they look plain. They look so perfect, like something you would get from a bakery. On that note, I have a question…do you center the tablespoon of dough on each graham cracker square or do you purposely want to kind of make them off centered? I want to make these on Halloween but I’m hoping they’ll look as pretty as yours. Thanks for the yummy recipe!
ha. They are not off centered on purpose. I would try to center it.
I used store bought cookie dough and added the marshmallows in and let it rest overnight before assembling and baking. They were a hit with my group and easy as could be with my little “cheat”.
I call it being efficient!
Everyone L💗VES S’mores cookies. Doubled reciepie, Baked as directed, bought all new ingredients, baking soda too and used Lakanto monk fruit sweetner, regular and brown instead of cane sugar. (Substitute proportions are same). Baked 1 tray right away, perfect. Baked second tray next day, same, perfect.
Ooh love the substitutions!
This is my new go-to dessert! Making them for the third time already!! GREAT for groups! Seriously they are so amazing!!!! My husband can not get enough! Haha! We love them. I definitely recommend this recipe! Can’t wait to try more from this website!!!
Thank you so much Emily!
We made these and absolutely amazing. Thank you! Any chance for nutrition information per cookie?
I’ll add it now!
I’m sure this is a dumb question for most of you but did u use self rising or AP flour?
Thanks
I always use all-purpose unless I specify.
These are Soo good! The perfect summer treat!😋👍🏼
So glad you like them!
I’ve made these a few times now, and they are the best s’mores cookies ever! Everyone loves them and I always have to refer them to your recipe when they ask for it. Thank you for this recipe!
I’m so glad you loved these.
Great idea! My kiddo will love these!
Mine do!
I love making cookies, and for years I was on the hunt for the perfect cookie recipe. I have made these, exactly as the recipe calls, for at least the last 4 years (maybe longer) and I have never had so many people ask me for a recipe. I have also sent them to dozens of Soldiers deployed overseas, and they keep just fine for the ~10-14 day trip in plastic to-go containers. These are THE BEST!!!!!
Incredible. Was the best cookie I have ever made. These cannot disappoint.
Well these were kind of a pain… I baked on the top rack (about 3 slots down) @ 350. The recommended few minutes was definitely not enough time…I would think maybe 8-9 min. I wanted that roasted look so put on an extra marshmallow with the chocolate and broiled for 1.5 min (watching very carefully). The mallows turned out great but then chocolate looked awful, so the next batch I waited and pressed in the chocolate immediately after taking out the cookies. They were still melty but not unrecognizable. Also, I skipped on the choc chips in the batter as I knew these would be way sweet already. The dough is still somewhat gooey but kind of goes well with the marshmallow consistency.
Sorry!! We love them.
They are heavenly and the family has requested them again.
Ooh. Now I want to make them.
Wondering about storage. What’s the best way to have them keep? Not putting them on cookie trays for Christmas until Friday, not that there will be many left. Thanks!
I would just store them in an air-tight container.
We love making them and we all love eating them. We made for my sons Cup Scout troop and the parents eat most of them before the boys could eat them. Needless to say that they are always asking for these cookies.
Oh good. That makes me happy!
I love that chocolate chip cookie sprinkled with chocolate and marshmallows topping it
Thank you!
Wow! They are looking delicious
Thank you!
Yummy cookies
Thank you!
These look incredible, what a great idea, Love it!!
Thank you!
I made these for my nieces and nephews. They were such a hit. Thanks for the recipe!
You’re so welcome!
Genius!!!!! I am so making these this Summer!
Thanks Christy,
wow these tasted delicious!! nothing could go wrong with these ingredients, what’s to love! Plus I love the hint of cinnamon – YUM! Bringing one batch to friends with a 3 year old and another to a beach party. Mine were not as pretty as pictured b/c the graham crackers were mostly broken crooked when I opened the box 🙁 however on one batch I broke them into bite size pieces and had the cookie dough totally cover it so when they came out of the oven, it looked like a round cookie shape with a little surprise backing of cracker. Just a tip for someone who gets a bad box of crackers! But even the messy ones are so good, who cares! thanks for this recipe!
OOOPS I meant what’s NOT to love 🙂
You are so welcome! And I’m so glad you loved them.
These are delicious cookies, but the baking was a bit tricky. I first baked the cookies for 6 minutes, then added the Hershey square, then baked the cookies for another 8 minutes. While the tops of the cookies were golden brown, the centers were still under baked so they ended up going back in the oven for another 5 minutes to get deep golden brown. I didn’t realize that adding the graham cracker to the bottom of the cookies would effect their baking time so much. I will make these cookies again but without the graham crackers.
Sorry Ana! Maybe try putting less dough per graham square so it bakes more evenly. Does that make sense?
Hi, Christy! I’ll try that next time 🙂
Made these today with my daughter and they are awesome! Had some leftover graham crackers so her idea was to put them on top of the cookie so you can eat them like an actual s’more. They are so sweet you can only eat one!
Your daughter is a genius! I’ll have to try that.
yum yum yum yum yum!!!!!! A co-worker made these and brought them in – they were SO good we were all clamoring for the recipe. They look a bit plain, sound a bit plain even, but holy mother of campfires they’re tasty. I even took two home for my kids, but they never even saw them! I will be making these for a luau party we’re having and I am willing to be that no one will care that they are not really theme-related! Thank you!!
Haha. Glad you enjoyed them!
