Imagine the campfire magic of s'mores packed into a scrumptious cookie! These Chewy S'mores Cookies are a gooey, chocolatey, marshmallow-filled treat that'll transport you straight to your favorite summer nights under the stars.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until creamy and smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and graham cracker crumbs. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips and marshmallow bits until evenly distributed throughout the dough. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This step helps prevent the cookies from spreading too much while baking.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers will still look slightly underbaked, but they will set as they cool.
Place half of a chocolate Hershey's candy in the middle of the cookies.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your delicious s'mores cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
