Smookies combine the best chocolate chip cookie with a topping of fluffy, gooey marshmallows, melted chocolate, and graham cracker crumbs to bring our favorite campfire dessert indoors! They taste exactly like a traditional smore, except less messy to make and no fire needed.

Have you ever found yourself wanting a sweet s’more but it seems a little extreme to go outside and start up a fire? This is where smookies save the day! Plus they are easy enough that the kids can help in the kitchen without having to worry about an open flame. These smookies are as beautiful as they are delicious – I just love how the graham cracker crumbs glisten like sprinkles over the top of the cookies.
We also love making s’mores bark, which we served at our campfire themed party, and next time I will add these campfire cinnamon rolls!
You can also try deep fried s’mores or these no-bake s’mores treat bars. All of these delicious desserts pair well with apple cider, pumpkin spice lattes, and hot chocolate bombs!

Why You’ll Love S’mores Cookies
- Can be made inside without the campfire.
- Taste just like the real thing on top of a warm chocolate chip cookie!
- Only need pantry staples, so you probably won’t even need to make a trip to the store.
What Ingredients do I Need for Smookies?
- unsalted butter – allow time for the butter to softened so it mixes better.
- granulated sugar
- egg
- all-purpose flour
- cornstarch
- baking soda
- maldon’s sea salt – this is the big, delicious flakey stuff
- brown sugar – be sure to measure your sugar correcting by packing it down.
- maple extract
- semi-sweet chocolate chips
- large marshmallows – we are going to cut these in half, but you could also use smaller marshmallows.
- graham crackers crumbs
- Hershey bar
- dark melting chocolate

Before You Start know that you will need at least 1 hour for the cookie dough to chill in the refrigerator.
How to Make Smookies
PREP: Cream the butter and sugars together using an electric mixer. Then mix in the eggs and maple extract (or use vanilla extract). Whisk together the flour, salt, cornstarch, and baking soda in a separate bowl. Combine the dry ingredients into the wet and fold in the chocolate chips.



CHILL: Cover the cookie dough with plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour, then set it on the counter to rest for 15 minutes. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat the oven 350 degrees.



BAKE: Roll the cookie dough into 12 balls and place them on the cookie sheet. Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven and set it to broil.


SMORES TOPPING: Place two marshmallow halves on each cookie and broil until toasted, remove when they are golden brown across the top of the marshmallow. Melt the chocolate in the microwave, then spoon on top. Add a piece of Hershey’s chocolate to each cookie, sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs, and enjoy!
- The broiling process goes fast, so keep an eye on the cookies so they don’t burn.
- You can use regular size or mini marshmallows on top if you don’t have the large ones.
- If the marshmallows bake over the sides of the cookie, use a knife or cookie cutter to cut off the excess.
- Melt the chocolate in 30 second increments so it doesn’t overcook.
- If desired, substitute milk chocolate for the dark chocolate.
Fun Fact
Did you know the first smore recipe on record is from the Girl Scouts?

A smookie is a cookie made with traditional s’mores ingredients. While some recipes bake the marshmallows and chocolate into the cookies, we add it on top to each one!
Keep leftover s’mores cookies in an airtight container or plastic bag in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Because the smookie dough contains eggs, we do not recommend eating it raw.
