Ingredients
1/2cupunsalted butter softened
3/4cupwhite sugar
1/4cupbrown sugar
1egg
1teaspoonvanilla
1cupflour
1/3cupcocoaunsweetened
1/2teaspoonbaking soda
1/2teaspoonsalt
1cupchocolate chunksCan use chocolate chips also
1cupmini marshmallows
3Hershey chocolate bars1.55 ounce bars
1/4cupgraham cracker crumbsabout 1 1/2 sheets
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or oil the pan.
Place softened butter, white sugar, and brown sugar together in a mixing bowl. Cream together until fluffy.
Add egg and vanilla to the butter mixture and mix until smooth.
In a separate bowl combine flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt and mix together with a fork or spatula.
Add the dry flour mixture to the butter mixture. Mix well until a dough forms and there is no more powder in the mixture.
Fold the chocolate chunks into the dough with a silicone spatula.
Roll the cookie dough into two tablespoon balls. A cookie scoop can help to make them even. Place dough balls 2 inches apart on a baking sheet.
Press three mini marshmallows into the center of each dough ball. Bake cookies for 9-10 minutes. The inside of the cookie will still be a little gooey but not raw.
Remove cookies from the oven. Carefully press 3-6 more mini marshmallows into each warm cookie while still on the pan.. Place a piece of chocolate on top of each cookie and sprinkle with crushed graham crackers.
Let the cookies cool for a minute or two on the pan before placing on a cooling rack or clean towel to finish cooling. Enjoy every last gooey bite!
Notes
This cookie dough can be frozen in dough balls Don't freeze the marshmallows into the dough. Either defrost the dough or if baking from frozen, press all the marshmallows into the cookies right after baking while still hot. Cookies baked from frozen dough will need an extra few minutes in the oven.
Do not fold any marshmallows into the dough like you would with the chocolate chunks. Marshmallows mixed into the dough will often end up leaking out of the cookies if they touch the pan directly.
You can use other brands of chocolate on top or even add extra chocolate chips. I've used a piece of Hershey chocolate on each cookie as it is the traditional chocolate in S'mores. Other brands of chocolate will be equally delicious.
