Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1/2 cup crushed graham crackers

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed or folding gently with a spatula. Avoid overmixing.
  • Fold in the semisweet chocolate chips and crushed graham crackers evenly into the dough.
  • Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart.
  • Top each cookie dough ball with a generous amount of mini marshmallows.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, until edges are set and marshmallows are toasted golden brown. Watch closely to prevent burning.
  • Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before enjoying.
