S’mores Cookie Cups are a delightful twist on the classic s’mores treat, combining the flavors of graham crackers, chocolate, and marshmallow in a convenient cookie form.
Ingredients
For the Cookie Cups
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs for texture and flavor
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour for structure
- 1/2 cup brown sugar for moisture and sweetness
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar for sweetness
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened for richness and moisture
- 1 large egg for binding
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract for flavor
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda for leavening
- 1/4 teaspoon salt to balance sweetness
For the Filling
- 1 cup chocolate bar pieces for melting, richness, and sweetness
- 1/2 cup marshmallow fluff for gooey texture and sweetness
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather all your ingredients.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking soda, and salt. Whisk to blend thoroughly.
- In another bowl, beat the softened unsalted butter until creamy and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, blending until fully combined.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients. Use a spatula to gently fold until just combined.
- Spoon the dough into a greased muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
Baking
- Bake for about 10-12 minutes until the edges are lightly golden and the centers remain soft.
- While warm, press a few pieces of chocolate into the center of each cup.
- Spoon a dollop of marshmallow fluff on top of each melted chocolate piece.
- Return the muffin tin to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes to warm and slightly toast the marshmallow fluff.
- Remove the muffin tin and allow to cool for a few minutes before lifting out of the tin.
- Let cool completely on a wire rack.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container to maintain freshness. Can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature. Optional: sprinkle crushed graham crackers on top for extra crunch.
