the pioneer woman's s'mores cookies.

When it comes to capturing the spirit of summer, nothing quite compares to s’mores. But here’s the good news: you don’t need a campfire to enjoy that same cozy flavor. These s’mores cookies bring all the goodness of the classic treat—gooey marshmallow, melty chocolate, and just the right amount of graham crunch—into one warm, chewy cookie that you can bake any time of year. They’re fun, they’re nostalgic, and they might just be even better than the original.

Of course, part of the magic of s’mores will always be the summer memories tied to them. But these cookies offer a little less mess and a lot more convenience than lighting up a campfire! Bake up a batch on a chilly winter day or serve them fresh on a summer afternoon—you really can’t go wrong. If you're craving more s'mores treats try our s'mores bars, s'mores pancakes, or s'mores dip!

Can you make the s'mores cookie dough ahead of time?

Absolutely! One of the best things about these s’mores cookies is that you can get a head start. You can make the cookie dough and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, which makes it so easy to bake them fresh when you need a sweet treat. If you’d like to prep even further in advance, just scoop the dough into balls and freeze them for up to 2 months. When you’re ready, bake straight from the freezer—just add an extra minute or two until the edges are golden brown.

How long will baked s'mores cookies last in the freezer?

These s’mores cookies can be frozen for up to 2 months, which makes them perfect for keeping on hand when a craving strikes. When you’re ready to enjoy, just reheat them briefly in a 200-degree Fahrenheit oven. This will bring back their soft, chewy texture and makes the marshmallow topping perfectly gooey again—like they just came out of the oven the first time.

Ingredients

  • 2

    sticks salted butter, melted

  • 1 cup

    sugar

  • 1/2 cup

    honey

  • 1 Tbsp.

    vanilla extract

  • 1

    large egg

  • 2 1/2 cups

    all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 cup

    graham cracker crumbs (from 4 whole graham crackers)

  • 1 tsp.

    baking powder

  • 1/2 tsp.

    baking soda

  • 1/2 tsp.

    kosher salt

  • 1 cup

    milk chocolate chips (about 6 ounces)

  • 1 cup

    mini marshmallows

  • 3

    (1.5-ounce) milk chocolate bars, broken into squares

  • 6

    large marshmallows, halved

Directions

    1. Step 1Line 3 baking sheets with parchment. In a large bowl, whisk the butter, sugar, honey, vanilla, and egg until combined.
    2. Step 2 In a separate large bowl, combine the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. 
    3. Step 3Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and combine thoroughly using a rubber spatula. Fold in the chocolate chips and mini marshmallows.
    4. Step 4Using a 1/4-cup scoop, scoop the cookie dough and roll into large balls. Space them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Push a square of milk chocolate into the top of each. Chill for 30 minutes.
    5. Step 5Preheat the oven to 350˚F. Bake the cookies in batches until the edges are golden brown, about 12 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through. Remove the cookies and increase the oven to broil, letting it preheat for a couple minutes. 
    6. Step 6Add a halved large marshmallow, cut-side down, to the top of each cookie. Working with one baking sheet at a time, return the cookies to the oven and broil for 1 to 2 minutes to toast the marshmallow toppings. Cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a baking rack. Let cool slightly before serving.
