Ingredients

Scale

Cookie Dough

1/2 cup butter (melted)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups flour
1/3 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 graham cracker (broken into small pieces)

Toppings

12 mini Hershey’s bars
12 marshmallows

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it reaches the right temperature for baking the cookies evenly.
Mix Butter and Sugars: In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Stir well to create a smooth, uniform mixture that will help achieve a rich cookie base.
Incorporate Egg and Vanilla: Beat the large egg and vanilla extract into the butter-sugar mixture until fully blended, which adds moisture and enhances flavor.
Add Dry Ingredients: Gradually stir in the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking soda, and salt until all ingredients are thoroughly combined to form the cookie dough.
Mix in Graham Cracker Pieces: Fold in the broken graham cracker pieces evenly throughout the dough to infuse classic s’mores crunch and texture.
Shape Dough Balls: Scoop the dough into 12 evenly sized balls and place them on a large baking sheet, spacing them to allow for spreading during baking.
Bake Cookies: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for approximately 10 minutes until edges are lightly golden and centers are set.
Add Chocolate Topping: Remove the cookies from the oven and gently press one mini Hershey’s bar onto the top of each cookie, ensuring some coverage for melting.
Top with Marshmallows and Broil: Place one marshmallow on each chocolate-topped cookie. Return the baking sheet to the oven and broil on high for 1-2 minutes, watching carefully until marshmallows toast to a golden brown.
Serve: Allow the cookies to cool slightly, then serve immediately to enjoy the melty gooey texture at its best.

Notes

When broiling marshmallows, watch closely to avoid burning as they can toast quickly.
You can substitute mini marshmallows with larger ones cut in half if preferred.
For a more intense chocolate flavor, try using dark chocolate mini bars instead of Hershey’s milk chocolate.
Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
To keep cookies softer, add an extra tablespoon of butter to the dough.
