I love s’mores, but like most busy adults I don’t frequently find myself just hanging around campfires and roasting marshmallows over an open flame. The last time that happened was probably 1987 and I was a Girl Scout. Which is why these s’mores cookies are a beautiful thing. They bring the taste of s’mores indoors via soft, tender, chewy chocolate chip cookies. I adapted my favorite chocolate chip cookie base because the cookies turn out exceedingly soft, every time. I added crushed graham crackers, mini marshmallow bits, and chocolate chips. The result is nothing short of the gooey, chewy, moist, chocolaty heaven. They’re enough to make the Brownie Scouts jealous that they have to stand around swatting bugs and getting stinky hair for their s’mores. The graham crackers soften slightly while baking, but retain some crunch, which is a perfect contrast to the the little marshmallow bits that stay chewy. There’s an abundance of chocolate in every bite because s’mores aren’t good unless there’s chocolate coating your fingernails and dripping all over. Keep the napkins handy.

How to Make S’mores Cookies
Making s’mores cookies with actual graham crackers is very easy. Here are the basic steps:
Storage Instructions
Store cookies airtight at room temperature for up to 1 week, or in the freezer for up to 3 months. Alternatively, unbaked cookie dough can be stored airtight in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, so consider baking only as many cookies as desired and save the remaining dough to be baked in the future when desired.
