Just because you may not have access to a campfire year round, doesn't mean you can't enjoy the deliciousness of s'mores whenever the craving strikes. These s'mores chocolate chip cookies are the perfect homage to the favorite campfire treat. The chocolate chip cookie dough is filled with graham cracker crumbs and wrapped around marshmallows for an ooey gooey melted marshmallow center that you're going to love!
I've been making these cookies for years, since I originally posted this recipe way back in 2018 to be exact. I always forget just how addicitive they are. With crispy edges and soft chewy centers, they are the perfect blend of chocolate chip cookies and campfire s'mores. The best part is they are gluten free, dairy free and nut free so everyone can enjoy them!

Ingredient Notes
This recipe combines gluten free and dairy free ingredients with the classic flavors of graham crackers, chocolate and marshmallows to create the perfect oven baked s'mores treat!
- Gluten Free Flour Blend - I used Bob's Red Mill 1-to-1 Flour Blend for this recipe. You can use the gluten free flour blend of your choice, but ensure it contains xanthan gum or a similar binder for best results.
- Gluten Free Graham Crackers - Schar brand graham crackers are my favorite because they are thinner and crispy. I also really like the flavor of the Kinnikinnick graham crackers. Either will work great in this recipe, just give them a chop in the food processor and you're ready to bake.
- Baking Soda - A little of this leavening agent will help the cookies spread, brown and bake up with delicious chewy edges.
- Salt - Just a little salt compliments the sweet flavor of the marshmallows and chocolate.
- Vegan Butter - I used Country Crock Plant Butter for this recipe. Any stick type of vegan butter will work fine, but avoid margarine. If you're not dairy free, use unsalted dairy butter in the same measure.
- Sugar & Brown Sugar - I've used a combination of the two sugars to get a nice balance between soft and chewiness in the baked cookies.
- Egg and Egg Yolk - The eggs bind the ingredients together. Adding an extra egg yolk here, gives us a more chewy chocolate chip cookie.
- Vanilla - Enhances the sweet flavor.
- Allergen Free Chocolate Chips - I typically use Nestle Allergen Free or Enjoy Life brand chocolate chips in my baking. I've also made these cookies several times with chopped chocolate bars and it was delicious!
- Marshmallows - I recommend mini marshmallows because they are easier to wrap in cookie dough. If you only have large marshmallows they will work, but you may need to cut them in half to make them fit well inside the cookie dough.

How to Make S'mores Chocolate Chip Cookies
STEP 1: Combine the gluten free flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking soda and salt in a small mixing bowl. Whisk well to mix and set aside.
STEP 2: Add the butter, sugar and brown sugar to the bowl of an electric mixer. Beat on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
STEP 3: Add the vanilla extract, egg and egg yolk to the creamed butter and sugar. Beat for another 60 seconds until the eggs are incorporated.
STEP 4: With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the dry ingredients and stir until just incorporated.
STEP 5: Add chocolate chips to the cookie dough and mix a few times to distribute them evenly throughout the dough.
STEP 6: Scoop about ¼ cup of cookie dough. Make an indentation in the center of the dough with your fingers. Add 5-6 mini marshmallows to the dough, like eggs in a nest.
STEP 7: Shape the cookie dough around the marshmallows to hide them inside. It's okay if a little marshmallow peeks out, that will make a nice puddle on top of the baked cookies.
STEP 8: Place the cookie dough balls on a baking sheet with about 3 inches between. The cookies will spread a good bit during baking.
Storage
Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. I don't recommend freezing these cookies.
