S'mores Stuffed Cookies

Jump to Recipe

It was a snow day and also Imbolc (a witchy sabbat with a lot of celebrations surrounding dairy and baking), so I wanted to cozy up our home with some baking. I scoured my pantry for ingredients I had on hand and found jumbo marshmallows, which led me to wanting to bake something s'mores-related.

Now, I'd normally bake something like this during the summer time (my mind goes to campfire), but I actually thought doing a s'mores recipe was perfect to warm us (my husband and I) up on a cold winter day (and to remind us that warmer times are ahead). These also differ from my S'mores Chocolate Chip Cookies I've made previously, because these ones are essentially stuffed with a full blown s'more, rather than just featuring the same ingredients as one. This recipe also calls for large (jumbo) marshmallows, while that recipes uses mini ones.

I came across this recipe from a website called Cook Snap Bake, and I had everything I needed on the ingredient list, so I decided to give it a go. This recipe was pretty straight-forward and simple to make once you get the hang of wrapping the dough around the graham cracker and marshmallow. I feel like these would be great for a party since they do have a bit of a wow-factor with their ooey-gooey inside. I just recommend eating them with a napkin!

These are delicious, and a great way to get all the flavors of a s'mores when you can't sit outside by a campfire. They'd also be fun to make with friends and family since there are a few steps in the process. You place your graham cracker half down, then piece of chocolate, then top with a marshmallow. Then you wrap your dough around that and refrigerate or freeze until you're ready to put them in the oven. For mine, I used Ghirardelli chocolate squares, but you can also use a classic Hershey's Bar or another piece of chocolate. Get creative!

Magickal Ingredients Used:

Chocolate: Properties of chocolate include self-love, romance, prosperity, grounding, focus, positivity, creativity, and motivation.

Butter: Smoothes and soothes energies and relationships. Increases tenacity and makes adjusting to change easier. Increases spirituality.

Here's What You Need:

• ½ cup butter, softened

• ½ cup granulated sugar

• ½ cup brown sugar

• 1 egg

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

• ½ tsp baking soda

• ¼ tsp salt

• 1 tbsp cornstarch

• ¼ cup chocolate chunks

• ¼ cup chocolate chips (plus more to add to the top when you remove the cookies from the oven)

• Jumbo marshmallows

• 1 Chocolate Bar, broken into pieces (or you can use chocolate squares like Ghiradelli Squares)

• Graham crackers, broken into halves

Here's What To Do:

1. Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, mix together the baking soda, salt, and cornstarch. Set aside.

2. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large bowl, using a mixer, combine softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until creamy. Add in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.

3. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in chocolate chunks and chocolate chips with a spatula.

4. Assemble the S’mores Cookies: Place half of a graham cracker on a plate. Top with a piece of chocolate, followed by one jumbo marshmallow. Scoop a generous amount of cookie dough, flatten it, and place it over the marshmallow, chocolate, and graham cracker, covering the entire top.

5. Freeze or Refrigerate: Place assembled cookies in the freezer for 15 minutes or in the fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight.

6. Bake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and arrange the cookies with plenty of space between each one. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown on the edges. Gently press more chocolate chips into the hot cookies if desired. Enjoy warm for the best gooey s’mores experience!

Notes

Tips for Making the Best S’mores Cookies:

• Use Softened Butter: This helps to create a smoother dough, ensuring an even bake.

• Freeze Before Baking: Freezing the assembled cookies helps them hold their shape and prevents the marshmallows from melting too quickly in the oven.

• Allow Room to Spread: These cookies spread a bit in the oven, so be sure to leave plenty of space between each one on the baking sheet.
