A s’more stuffed chocolate chip cookie takes the humble s’more & makes it portable. That campfire treat has been a beloved part of summer evenings for as long as anyone can remember. But what if we could capture the essence of this gooey, chocolatey, marshmallow delight and pair it with another all-time favorite – the chocolate chip cookie? Well, prepare your taste buds because we’re going to dive into the creation of S’more Cookies!

A New Dessert Legend
This ingenious idea of wrapping a s’more in a chocolate chip cookie dough brings together two iconic treats. It’s like combining the joy of a summer campfire with the comfort of a freshly baked cookie, making it an irresistible dessert for any season. This might be my favorite simple treat I make. Once you taste it, you won’t be able to stop yourself.

What is in a S’more Cookie?
Unsalted butter
It’s always important to use unsalted butter when baking. If you use salted butter, you have no way of knowing how much salt you are adding to your dough and it will result in an over salted treat.
Butter adds fats to your dough which helps with moistness, flavor & texture. Butter melts at body temperature, which creates a ‘melt in your mouth’ sensation.
When baking with butter the temperature is important. If the butter is too warm your cookies will melt down too fast and spread too much in the oven leaving you with a greasy, flat cookie. If butter is too cold it will have the opposite problem and not melt down enough, leaving your cookies too thick.
Shortening
Being 100% fat, provides a flakier texture and prevents spreading because it doesn’t melt down in the oven.
Brown sugar
Brown sugar is granulated sugar with a little molasses mixed in. Molasses is a more bitter natural sweetener which actually makes the sugar a bit sweeter than plain granulated sugar. Brown sugar draws more moisture into your treat and is more acidic, that means it will help make baking soda react.
Granulated sugar
Adds sweetness, provides a caramelized flavor and crisp texture. Sugar assists with rising when creamed with butter & sugar. It helps add moisture to your cookie and helps it evenly spread as it melts into a liquid in the heat of the oven. Sugar also helps with naturally preserving your baked treat.
Eggs
Adds both protein (egg whites) and fat (egg yolks). The egg whites help with rising because when foamed, little air pockets get trapped inside the mixture. The water content in egg whites encourages steam while baking which helps with gluten formation, resulting in nice and thick cookies. Egg yolks have emulsifying properties that bring batters together and help your dough from collapsing.
Vanilla extract
When using pure vanilla extract, it will add the deep rich flavor everybody wants in a treat.
All-purpose flour
Flour builds structure as it absorbs liquids and expands. All-purpose flour falls in the middle of bread flour (high in gluten) and cake flour (low in gluten). It is exactly what it is named, all-purpose, the most universal flour that can be used in most baked goods
Baking soda
Elevates the pH level of your batter. It increases the spread in cookies and encourages browning which gives the crispy outside, soft inside texture that everyone loves. Baking soda needs both an acid and a liquid to react. Things that will make baking soda react are: vinegar, fruit juice, molasses, brown sugar, tartar, buttermilk, sour cream. Baking soda only reacts once, right when its mixed into your batter it will create little air bubbles all throughout your treat. When the air bubbles get heated up in the oven, they expand.
Fine sea salt
Enhances flavor, adds balance, masks any bitter flavors. Salt is the most powerful and oldest preservative. Always make sure to use fine sea salt so that it melts down at the right speed in the heat of the oven. If you use larger granule salt it will not melt down fully when baked and will leave salt crystals throughout your cookie, making it crunch like you dropped it into sand.
Chocolate chips
Is a form of milk chocolate. Chocolate chips are not pure chocolate, they are typically made up of cocoa, sugar, emulsifier and vanilla.
Hershey Bar, Marshmallow & Graham Cracker
Because you cannot make a s’more without these 3 ingredients!

- Mixing the Base: Combine butter, shortening, and sugars in a standing mixer. Mix on high speed for 2 minutes, scrapping down the bowl every 30 seconds. Once the mixture is creamed fully it will be lighter in color & texture. That means air bubbles have been incorporated & these will help rise your cookies.
- Adding Eggs and Vanilla: Stir in carefully to avoid over mixing.
- Dry Ingredients: Gently mix in the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Chocolate Chips: Fold these in last for even distribution.
- Prepping the Oven: Preheat to 375 degrees.
- Creating the S’more Center: On a light metal cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, smash cookie dough balls, top each with graham cracker, chocolate, and marshmallow.
- The Cookie Dough Wrap: Wrap another scoop of flattened dough over the s’more.
- Baking: Bake for 8 minutes, looking for a golden-brown finish.
- Cooling: Allow to cool slightly before transferring them off the sheet.

How to Achieve the Perfect Balance of Flavors
The balance comes from the proportions of s’more components and cookie dough, ensuring a harmonious blend.
Making Ahead and Storage
They can be made ahead and stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 5 days. Or they can be refrigerated for 1 week. They also can stay frozen for up to 1 month. Allow the cookies to thaw out and become room temperature before enjoying. Warm slightly before serving if you prefer them melty.

Recipe Variations
Experiment with different types of chocolate, marshmallows, graham crackers, and even add-ins, like nuts for a unique twist.
Recommended Equipment
- Standing mixer to properly cream the butter & sugar
- Cookie scoop for measured proportions that all bake evenly & at the same speed
- Light metal cookie sheets to prevent over browning the cookies
- Parchment paper to help evenly bake & keep the cookies from sticking
