Pumpkin S'mores Cookies
Soft and chewy pumpkin s'mores cookies packed with warm pumpkin spices, gooey marshmallows, melted chocolate, and crunchy graham crackers. These cookies perfectly combine fall flavors and a classic campfire treat.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs (about 4-5 graham crackers, crushed)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Add Mix-Ins: Gently fold in the chocolate chips, mini marshmallows, and graham cracker crumbs until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Scoop the Dough: Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake the Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are lightly golden. The marshmallows should be slightly melted and the cookies should still be soft in the center.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your pumpkin s'mores cookies with a cold glass of milk or a hot cup of cocoa!
