Why You’ll Love These S’mores Cookies
- You only need 11 simple ingredients to make these s’mores cookies!
- This is a no chill cookie recipe, so they’re ready to eat in just 25 minutes.
- You can easily make these s’mores cookies dairy free or vegan, so they’re perfect for those with food allergies.
- These cookies are extra thick and soft.
Ingredients Needed
- Butter: you can use regular salted butter or vegan butter if you’re dairy free or vegan. I promise that these cookies taste so buttery, even with vegan butter!
- Chocolate: you can use chocolate chips or chop up a chocolate bar! Feel free to use semi sweet chocolate, dark or milk chocolate – it is totally up to you!
- Marshmallows: if you don’t have mini marshmallows on hand you can chop up regular marshmallows into smaller pieces. Feel free to use vegan mini marshmallows if making these cookies vegan.
- Graham Crackers: if you live in Europe you can use crushed up digestive biscuits instead! If making these vegan, use vegan graham crackers.
- Egg: if you’re vegan you can swap out the egg for a flax egg.
Step by Step Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350°Fahrenheit and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2: In a medium bowl, combine the flour with the baking powder and salt.
Step 3: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large bowl with a handheld mixer, combine the butter with the white sugar and light brown sugar. Mix until light and fluffy.
Step 4: Add the egg and vanilla extract and beat until just combined.
Step 5: Add the dry ingredients and mix until combined. Stir in the graham crackers, chopped chocolate and mini marshmallows.
Step 6: Form the cookie dough into 2 tablespoon sized balls and on the prepared baking sheets, making sure they’re around 3-4 inches apart. Make sure to cover any mini marshmallows that are exposed with cookie dough, or else they’ll melt in the oven! Add an extra piece of chocolate on top of each cookie dough ball before baking to get that bakery style look.
Step 7: Bake the cookies one sheet at a time for 8-11 minutes. Take them out of the oven when the edges have set, but the middles are slightly underbaked. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Expert Tips
- Make sure you’re properly measuring your flour! I recommend using a kitchen scale, because using too much flour will make your cookies super dry and crumbly.
- If you don’t have a kitchen scale, make sure you’re using the scoop and level method to measure your flour.
- Be careful not to over mix the cookie dough. Stop mixing the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients as soon as there are no more streaks of flour.
- Get a bakery style look by adding pieces of chocolate to the top of each cookie dough just before baking!
- Once the cookies are fresh out of the oven, use a large biscuit cutter or a wide rimmed bowl to shape the cookies into a perfect circular shape!
Storage Instructions
Once cooled, store the s’mores cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for 4-5 days. To freeze, place the cookies in a freezer bag for up to 2 months. Let them thaw at room temperature when you’re ready to eat them.

Hi Gabby, can I prep a batch freeze the dough? How long do I need to bake from frozen please? Thanks
