Ingredients You’ll Need

For the Peanut Butter Cookies:

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional: 1/4 cup finely crushed graham crackers (for added texture)

For the S'mores Filling:

  • 1 cup milk or semi-sweet chocolate chips (or chopped chocolate)
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1/4 cup crushed graham crackers (for layering)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat and Prep

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. If using crushed graham crackers in the dough, mix them into the dry ingredients before proceeding.

2. Make the Cookie Dough

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, egg, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt. Mix until smooth and well combined.
  2. The dough will be soft but scoopable. If it feels too sticky, chill it in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes.

3. Shape and Bake the Cookies

  1. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  2. Gently flatten each ball with the back of a fork to create a crisscross pattern.
  3. Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
