Looking back over the years, I’ve made more s’more desserts than I can count. This is a very popular “flavor” that isn’t scooting out of the way anytime soon. From no bake s’mores cake to s’mores brownie pie and even s’mores chocolate chip cookie cake, the combination of marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crackers can be used in many different ways. There’s even elevated s’mores such as making the campfire treat with peanut butter cups instead of the traditional Hershey’s bar. These s’mores chocolate chip cookies are a favorite from my blog archives, so I remade them with a couple updates. Now I toast the marshmallows and top the cookies with crushed graham crackers. I brought a double batch to a pool party the other weekend and each cookie disappeared faster than I could say “grab a napkin, they’re sticky!” 😉 By the way, August 10th is National S’mores Day. I hope you celebrate appropriately!
Video Tutorial: How to Make S’mores Chocolate Chip Cookies
Use Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies
Start the batch with your favorite chocolate chip cookies. I highly recommend using my soft chocolate chip cookies because they remain soft even after the marshmallows go under the broiler, an important step in the recipe. The cookie dough comes together with familiar ingredients including butter, sugars, vanilla, egg, flour, chocolate chips, and a few others. 4 Cookie Success Tips: Cookie dough is soft, creamy, and loaded with chocolate chips. The colder the cookie dough, the less the cookies will over-spread. Chilling is key. If you’re interested, here are my 10 tips on how to prevent cookies from spreading.
How to Make S’mores Chocolate Chip Cookies from this Dough
Let’s break down each step: The process of making these is similar to how we make marshmallow-surprise hot cocoa cookies. My toasted s’mores chocolate chip cookies are similar, but I use mini marshmallows and larger chunks of graham crackers. I also have a recipe for super easy s’mores cookie bars, too! Can’t forget my s’mores rice krispie treats either. If you can s’mores-ify it, I’ve done it.
Can I Make These Cookies Ahead?
Yes! You can make these s’mores chocolate chip cookies 1 day ahead of time. Cover and store the cookies at room temperature or in the refrigerator overnight, then bring to room temperature prior to serving. The chocolate sets and the marshmallow stays gooey. If you’re really thinking ahead, you could also bake and cool the chocolate chip cookies, then freeze them. On the day of serving or 1 day before, top with the marshmallow, chocolate, and graham cracker crumbs. These are ALWAYS a hit and I say that after making them for 7 years straight!
