A recipe for s'mores-inspired cookies, featuring graham cracker crumbs, chocolate chips, and marshmallows, perfect for s'mores lovers. Includes detailed instructions and notes on ingredient choices and post-baking handling.
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a bowl, mix together graham cracker crumbs, flour, baking soda, and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until creamy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, and mix until combined.
4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
5. Fold in the chocolate chips and marshmallows.
6. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
7. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
8. Top with more marshmallows or flakey salt, if desired.
9. Let cool on the baking sheet completely before transferring to a wire rack or storage container. Let cookies cool completely before removing them from the baking sheet, as the edges of cookies will caramelize and stick to the parchment paper, making them easier to remove once cooled. You can reshape cookies right when they come out of the oven if marshmallows spill over cookie edges.
Important Notes:
Brown Sugar: Both light and dark brown sugar work equally well.
Chocolate Chips: Use milk chocolate chips for extra sweetness or bittersweet/dark chocolate chips for a depth of flavor.
Marshmallows: Use six large or 36 mini marshmallows total.
Graham Crackers: 5 whole graham cracker sheets crushed (can be done in a sandwich bag with a rolling pin).
