Full Recipe:
For the Cookies:
- 150g semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 150g unsalted butter (softened)
- 200g all-purpose flour
- 1 egg + 1 egg yolk
- 50g brown sugar
- 4g baking powder
- 110g sugar
- 50g crushed butter biscuits
- Marshmallows
- Optional: Additional chocolate for extra gooeyness
Directions:
- Cream the Butter and Sugars
In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until light and fluffy. - Add the Wet Ingredients
Beat in the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and fully incorporated. - Combine Dry Ingredients
Add the all-purpose flour and baking powder to the butter mixture, and fold in the chocolate chips and crushed butter biscuits. - Chill the Dough
Portion the dough into 80g cookie portions and chill them in the fridge for 60 minutes. (This step is crucial to ensure the cookies hold their shape while baking.) - Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 170°C fan (340°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper. - Prepare the Cookies for Baking
After chilling the dough, place a crushed butter biscuit on each cookie portion. Add a piece of chocolate on top, and finish with a marshmallow. Gently flatten each cookie into a disc shape, wrapping the dough around the biscuit-marshmallow base. - Bake the Cookies
Bake the cookies for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The center should still be soft and gooey. Once done, let the cookies cool slightly on the tray. - Serve and Enjoy
Let the cookies cool a bit before serving to enjoy their perfect gooey texture.
Tips for the Best S’mores Cookies:
- Don’t skip the chilling step! It helps the dough hold together and prevents spreading.
- Experiment with different types of chocolate for a richer flavor — dark, milk, or even white chocolate.
- If you want extra gooeyness, add more marshmallow or chocolate chunks.
- Flatten the cookies gently but don’t overwork the dough for a soft and chewy texture.
Variations You Can Try:
- Swap marshmallows for chocolate-covered marshmallow candies.
- Use graham crackers instead of butter biscuits for an authentic s’mores flavor.
- Add a drizzle of caramel sauce or a sprinkle of sea salt for a twist.
How to Store:
S’mores cookies are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the dough balls before baking and bake them fresh later.
These S’mores Cookies are pure indulgence! With gooey marshmallows, chocolate, and the crunch of butter biscuits, they’re the perfect treat for any occasion. Whether you’re baking for a party, a cozy night in, or just because, these cookies will satisfy your sweet tooth every time!
