Total Time: 27 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 24 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup crushed graham crackers
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, using an electric mixer. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt to ensure even distribution of leavening agents.
- Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Fold in crushed graham crackers, chocolate chips, and mini marshmallows gently using a spatula.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are golden brown and centers are set.
- Remove from oven and let cookies cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
Tips
- Use Room Temperature Ingredients: For the best texture, make sure your butter and eggs are at room temperature before you start mixing. This helps create a smooth, fluffy dough.
- Don’t Overmix: When combining the dry ingredients with the wet, mix just until combined. Overmixing can lead to tough cookies.
- Chill the Dough (Optional): If you have time, chilling the cookie dough for about 30 minutes can help the cookies maintain their shape and enhance the flavors.
- Watch the Baking Time: Keep an eye on your cookies as they bake. They should be golden around the edges but still soft in the center when you take them out. They will continue to firm up as they cool.
- Experiment with Mix-Ins: Feel free to get creative! Add nuts, different types of chocolate, or even a sprinkle of sea salt on top for an extra flavor boost.
- Storage Tips: To keep your cookies fresh, store them in an airtight container. You can also freeze the dough for up to 3 months—just thaw and bake when you’re ready for a treat!
