Whether you’re hosting a get-together, need a treat for a movie night (along side pumpkin spiced marshmallow popcorn), or just want something sweet and easy, this recipe is a surefire winner. Plus, they’re a hit with kids and adults alike!

Ingredients You’ll Need

For this simple recipe, you only need three ingredients. Yes, you heard that right—just three!

• Oreo Cookie Dough: Start with a tube of refrigerated Oreo cookie dough (or use your favorite chocolate chip cookies). It’s pre-mixed, making this a super easy, no-mess recipe.
• Marshmallows: Large marshmallows work best, as they give you that perfect gooey top layer. Feel free to cut them in half if they’re a bit too big for the cookies. Vegan marshmallows will work well too!
• Chocolate Bars: Classic milk chocolate squares (like Hershey’s) will melt just right, sticking to the marshmallow without overpowering the cookie flavor. A hershey’s bar is perfect because it breaks into perfect rectangles that fit right on top of the cookie.

How to Make S’mores Cookies

Ready to get baking? Here’s how you can whip up a batch of these mouth-watering treats:

1. Bake the Cookie Base: Preheat your oven as directed on the Oreo cookie dough package, and bake the cookies according to the instructions. Make sure they’re nicely set but still soft enough to hold the marshmallow on top. When they’re done, remove them from the oven but keep your oven on—we’re not done yet!
2. Add the Marshmallow: Place a marshmallow on top of each freshly baked cookie. Switch your oven to the broiler setting and place the cookies back in the oven for about 1 minute, or until the marshmallows are golden brown on top. Keep a close eye on them—marshmallows brown quickly under the broiler! The melted marshmallow is sure to be your favorite part!
3. Top with Chocolate: Once the marshmallows are perfectly toasted, take the cookies out and press a piece of chocolate onto each marshmallow. Return the cookies to the oven for just 10 seconds to help the chocolate melt slightly and stick to the marshmallow. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly (if you can wait that long!).

Tips for Perfect S’mores Cookies

Want to make sure your S’mores Cookies are perfect every time? Here are a few helpful tips:

• Watch the Broiling: Marshmallows can go from golden to burnt in seconds under the broiler, so keep a close watch! You want them just toasted enough to get that caramelized flavor without losing their gooey center.
• Use Room Temperature Chocolate: Cold chocolate won’t melt as quickly, so if you can, use chocolate at room temperature to get that perfect soft, melty top layer.
• Serve Warm: These cookies are best enjoyed while still warm and gooey. If you have leftovers (which is unlikely!), you can reheat them for a few seconds in the microwave to bring back that ooey-gooey goodness.

Fun Add-Ons to Try

This recipe is so versatile! Try these add-ons if you want to take your S’mores Cookies to the next level:

• Add Graham Cracker Crumbs: Sprinkle a few graham cracker pieces or crumbs on top of the marshmallow before you add the chocolate for an extra “s’mores” feel.
• Switch Up the Chocolate: If you’re feeling adventurous, try using peanut butter cups, dark chocolate, or even caramel-filled chocolate squares instead of classic milk chocolate.
• Mini Marshmallows: If you want an extra gooey topping, you can swap the large marshmallow for a handful of mini marshmallows instead. If you do this, line your baking sheet with parchment paper in case the marshmallows roll off. 

Perfect for Any Occasion

These S’mores Cookies are an amazing option for backyard barbecues, family gatherings, or a fun weeknight treat. Kids and adults alike will love the twist on the classic s’mores, and with just a few steps, they’re easy enough to make on a whim.
