Craving s’mores but stuck indoors? These Oven Smores Cookies are the answer. All the classic flavors—gooey marshmallow, melted chocolate, and sweet graham cracker—baked into soft, chewy s’mores cookies you can enjoy without a campfire. Whether it’s raining outside or you're just not up for a fire pit, this easy recipe brings the magic of s’mores straight to your oven.

I love a good campfire—the glow, the cozy sweatshirt, and that perfect, golden marshmallow roasted over an open flame. But let’s be real: sometimes the craving for a gooey s’more hits when there’s no fire pit in sight.

That’s where these oven s’mores cookies come in. They pack all the nostalgic flavor of your favorite campfire treat—graham cracker, chocolate, and marshmallow—into a soft, chewy cookie that bakes up beautifully right in your kitchen. No sticks, no smoke, no weather worries. Just cozy, melty s’mores cookie goodness any day of the week.

While these may look like a dressed-up chocolate chip cookie, the base is anything but basic. We take it a step further by blending finely crushed graham crackers right into the dry ingredients. It adds a deeper graham-forward flavor and a subtle crispness—just like the bite of a real s’more. That’s what sets these oven smores cookies apart.

✨ Why Oven Smores Cookies Are the Ultimate Crowd-Pleaser for Events

Hosting a party with a rustic or outdoorsy theme? These oven s’mores cookies are the perfect sweet treat for glamping bridal showers, nature-inspired baby showers, or even bachelor parties with a wild twist. With rich graham flavor baked right into the dough and a gooey marshmallow option on top, they deliver all the nostalgia of a classic s’more—no fire pit required.

Planning a summer gathering or outdoor celebration? These s’mores cookies make a fun, mess-free alternative to traditional campfire desserts.

How to Store Oven S’mores Cookies for Maximum Freshness

To keep your oven s’mores cookies soft and fresh, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4–5 days. If you've added roasted marshmallows on top, they’re best enjoyed the same day, as the topping can become sticky over time.

Real Tip

For the freshest flavor and texture, store the cookies plain and toast a marshmallow as you serve. Just torch or broil half a marshmallow and press it onto the cookie right before serving—it gives you that just-made s’mores feel every time!

Servings 2 dozen*

Ingredients
  

  • 2 ¼ cups Flour
  • ½ cup Graham Crackers, finely crushed
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • ½ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • pinch Salt
  • 1 cup Butter, softened 2 sticks
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar, packed
  • ½ cup White Sugar
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • ¾ cup Bittersweet Chocolate Chunks *additional for topping
  • ¾ cup Dried Mini Marshmallow Bits *additional for topping
  • ¼ cup Graham Crackers, broken into small/medium sized pieces *optional for topping
  • Large Marshmallows for topping & roasting *see notes

Instructions
 

  • If you don't have time to let your dough chill, preheat your oven from the start to 350 °F
  • If you have time to chill your dough, skip the preheating step until you are closer to putting the cookies into the oven.
  • Mix the flour, crushed graham crackers, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Put to the side.
  • Using a mixer cream the butter, brown sugar, white sugar and vanilla together in another bowl. Add the egg, be sure to mix the egg with the butter mixture well before going to the next step.
  • Slowly add the dry flour mixture to the wet mixture. Once both mixtures are blended, mix in the chocolate chunks and mini marshmallow bits. Mix well to incorporate evenly.

  • Put the mixing bowl, covered in the fridge to chill for 30 minutes.
  • After 15 minutes of your dough's chill time, preheat your oven to 350 °F
  • Bake the cookies for 14-16 minutes. Be sure to watch the cookies and remove them when the edges are slightly golden.
  • As soon as the cookies come out of the oven, press some additional toppings of your liking into the tops of the cookies. You can add extra chocolate chunks, mini marshmallow bits, and crushed graham crackers.
  • Let the cookies cool completely. Just before serving, top each cookie with a large marshmallow and torch until golden and gooey for that extra marshmallow goodness.

Notes

Using a rounded tablespoon, I ended up with closer to 36 cookies. If you scoop larger or smaller portions, your total yield may vary—so adjust based on your preference!
Just before serving, top each cookie with a large marshmallow and torch until golden and gooey for that extra marshmallow goodness.

Helpful Hint: Cut the marshmallow in half and press the sticky side onto the cookie so it stays in place while torching.
