S'mores Stuffed Cookies are giant chocolate chip cookies that are wrapped around an entire s'more. You get the soft cookie, melty chocolate, crunchy graham cracker, and sticky marshmallow all in one bite!
A warm chocolate chip cookie is one of the better things in life. Arguably, a melty s'more is right up there on the list! Combine the two into these S'mores Stuffed Cookies and you have got a winning cookie! If you're not into the graham crackers you should try my Chocolate Chip Marshmallow Cookies.

Ingredient Notes
- Measuring the all-purpose flour correctly is very important. I suggest weighing your flour out. If you want to use a measuring cup, make sure you spoon the flour into the cup and level it off with a knife. Don’t use the cup to scoop directly from the flour.
- I prefer semi-sweet chocolate, but you can use whatever you prefer. If you’re wanting puddles of chocolate chop up a chocolate bar instead of using chocolate chip. I use the same technique in my Brownie Stuffed Cookies.
- I cut each graham cracker sheet into 8ths. You can find more graham crackers in my S'more Donuts.
- I cut each marshmallow in half. You could use mini marshmallows or marshmallow fluff if that's what you have on hand.
See the recipe card below for a full list of ingredients and measurements.
Substitutions and Variations
- You can substitute the chocolate bar inside of the cookie for a Reese's peanut butter cup to change up the flavor of the cookie. Or you could try my Reese's Skillet Cookie!
- Flavored marshmallows can be used in the smores cookies.
- Different types of chocolate can be used to change the flavor profile.
- You can leave out the graham cracker to create marshmallow stuffed cookies.

Step-By-Step Instructions
STEP 1: In a large bowl using a hand mixer or in the bowl of a stand mixer cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing fully before adding the next. Pour in the vanilla and combine.
STEP 2: In a medium bowl combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to combine.
STEP 3: Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Be sure not to over mix.
STEP 4: Fold in the chocolate chips or the chopped chocolate. Cover the chocolate chip cookie dough and chill for at least 30 minutes. This will help your cookies not to spread as much during baking. If you love cookie dough you should take a look at my Edible Cookie Dough Recipe.
STEP 5: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees (F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Make scoops of cookie dough about 1 ½ to 2 tablespoons in size. Place on the prepared baking sheet and press to flatten. Place a graham cracker square, chocolate square, and half of a marshmallow on top.
STEP 6: Get another scoop of cookie dough and flatten it as well. Press the cookie dough on top of the s'more and seal the two pieces of cookie dough together. It will be a rather large ball. Space dough balls at least 3 inches apart.
STEP 7: Bake the s'more stuffed cookies for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. I bake my cookies for closer to 10 minutes because I like them nice and soft.
STEP 8: Remove from oven and let the stuffed cookies cool on the cookie sheet.
Expert Baking Tips
- Chill your cookie dough. I know skipping this step is tempting (you want your cookies as quickly as possible and I can’t blame you for that!) but don’t do it! Chilling cookie dough prevents the cookies from overspreading. This can cause them to be thinner, and crispier, and change the overall flavor of the end product.
- Use an oven thermometer. Most ovens run either hot or cold. Using an oven thermometer ensures that you are baking your s'mores stuffed cookies at the perfect temperature.
- Don’t use cold ingredients. Ensure that all of your cold ingredients are at room temperature before making your cookies. The ingredients will combine much easier and you won’t have chunks of cold butter in your cookie dough, which can lead to greasy cookies.
- Weigh your ingredients. One of the most common baking mistakes that I see is measuring incorrectly, especially with flour. The best way to get accurate measurements every time is to weigh them with a kitchen scale.
- Use a cookie cutter to shape your cookies after baking. If you shake a cookie cutter around the cookies when they are fresh out of the oven they will be perfectly round and more visually appealing.
Recipe FAQ's

That way you can pull out one or two cookies whenever you'd like them. I leave them sitting out at room temperature for about 30 minutes and then bake normally.
