Equipment
- Mixing Bowls
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Electric Mixer
- Baking Sheet
- Parchment Paper
- Spatula
- Cooling rack
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup butter at room temperature
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ¾ cup packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups miniature chocolate chips
- 1 ½ cups mini marshmallows
- 2 Hershey bars chopped (or equivalent amount of snack-sized Hershey bars)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that your cookies bake evenly.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking soda, and salt. Set this mix aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, mixing until completely combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Using a spatula, gently fold in the miniature chocolate chips, mini marshmallows, and chopped Hershey bars until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving enough space for spreading. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. Allow to cool completely before serving.
Notes
- Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
- Freeze cookies in a single layer on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months.
- Reheat frozen cookies in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes.
- For a healthier option, substitute half the flour with whole wheat flour or use coconut oil instead of butter.
- Chopped nuts can be added with the chocolate chips and marshmallows for extra texture.
