Ingredients
- 1 box of chocolate fudge cake mix
- 1/3 cup of vegetable oil
- 2 eggs
- 1 oz pack of Teddy Grahams, chopped lightly
- 1/2 cup mini marshmallows
- 1/8 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1.55 oz Hershey chocolate bar, broken into pieces
How to Make The Ultimate S’mores Cake Mix Cookies
Preheat and Prep – Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking sheets, to ensure your cookies come off easily after baking.
Mix the Base – In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, combine the chocolate fudge cake mix, vegetable oil, and eggs. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated and you have a thick, sticky dough.
Add the Goodies – Fold in the chopped Teddy Grahams, mini marshmallows, and mini semi-sweet chocolate chips. The marshmallows will give that gooey s’mores texture, while the chocolate chips add extra bursts of sweetness.
Form and Place – Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Ensure they’re spaced about 2 inches apart, as these cookies will spread a bit while baking.
Top with Extra Toppings- Gently press a Teddy Graham, a piece of Hershey chocolate bar and more marshmallows into the top of each cookie dough ball.
Bake to Perfection – Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes. The cookies should be set around the edges but still soft in the center. Remember, they’ll continue to cook a bit even after you remove them from the oven.
Cool and Enjoy – Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Or, if you’re like me and can’t resist, enjoy them warm while the marshmallows are still gooey and the chocolate is melted.
Tips for the Best S’mores Cookies:
- Don’t Overbake: To achieve that perfect gooey texture, keep a close eye on your cookies. Cookies should be slightly underbaked in the center when you take them out.
- Chopped Teddy Grahams: Ensure to gently chop the Teddy Grahams small enough to be evenly distributed throughout the dough for a consistent crunch in every bite.
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. To enjoy that fresh-out-of-the-oven experience again, pop them in the microwave for a few seconds to re-melt the chocolate and marshmallows.
