Who’s ready for a s’more? Or a cookie? Or a s’more…cookie?
I went on my very first camping trip last weekend. I’m 26. Is that weird? Probably.
You see, I’m not the outdoorsy type AT ALL. In fact, I even googled “what to wear camping” before I left. That’s definitely weird. But it was a fun trip! Minus my sunburn, ruined Uggs, and insane allergies. I seriously wanted to rip out my eyeballs.
Needless to say, I knew nothing about camping. And after my first trip, I still know nothing about camping. But I do know one thing: s’mores.
The only thing better than a s’more is a portable s’more. On top of a chocolate chip cookie. Mmmm.
What I loved most about bringing these along camping last weekend was that they took about 20 minutes start-to-finish. Using pre-made refridgerated chocolate chip cookie dough, I saved both time & effort. I had packing to worry about!
These were a huge hit!
S’more Chocolate Chip Cookies
makes approximately 36 cookies
- 1 recipe for chocolate chip cookies, or 1 package Nestle Tollhouse Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (or your favorite cookie dough recipe)
- 18 jumbo marshmallows (or more depending how many cookies your recipe yields – you’ll need 2 cookies per marshmallow)
- 2 Ghirardelli Semi-Sweet Chocolate Baking Bars (or 8 oz any melting chocolate)
Bake cookies according to my directions or the package directions, removing them 1 minute before they are done.
Cut marshmallows in half while cookies are in oven. When the cookies have 1 minute to go in the oven, remove them and place marshmallow halves sticky side down on top of each cookie. Place the cookies back in the oven for 2 more minutes (which is 1 minute over the recommended baking time – they won’t burn, promise).
Break up and melt the chocolate bars (or the melting chocolate you are using) while the cookies are finishing up in the oven. Microwave for 45 seconds, stir, and nuke for 15 more seconds. Stir vigorously until all chocolate is melted. Microwave in 15 second intervals until chocolate is melted.
When the cookies are done in the oven, drop 2 teaspoons of melted chocolate over toasted marshmallow. Refrigerate for 5 minutes or until chocolate is set.

I love the new blog design, so neat — literally! I also love the looks of these s’mores cookies
thanks so much Liz!
First of all, love, love, LOVE the new design, simply stunning.
Secondly, these s’mores chocolate chip cookies look so devine. Loving the marshmallow and chocolate- looks like the melt-in-the-mouth business! I don’t know why, but these kinda reminded me of a wagon wheel except for the jam/jelly (obviously), lol.
Oh my what a brilliant idea !! they are so cute ! I loooooove s’mores !! hi hi i had to laugh when you wrote “i even googled “what to wear camping” before i left”
just did it to ckeck and got a lot of hits so i guess it’s not that weird 
haha yes i was completely lost on what to wear camping!
I love the new blog makeover!!! So fun and cute!!! Smores are the only reason that I remotely like camping. Give me a hotel any day over a tent:-) These portable smores cookies look super yummy! I will have to give them a try the next time I have be in the outdoors for more than 20 minutes!!!
Jocelyn!! thank you so much for the feedback on my new site! means a lot. hope you have a wonderful weekend.
New web design looks great!
Love portable s’mores, what a fun cookie
Thanks Erin!
Your new design is CUTE! And this cookie so scrumptious! I love an already made s’more – I can pop them in my mouth quicker. Heehee.
I definitely thought something was different about your blog! Love the new look — clean and cute and love the color theme
these cookies look perfect! No fire needed 
Love the new look
I am definitely not a camper, but I love s’mores! Any excuse to make them…and then sleep in my own bed is a perfect situation in my world.
These look really! I like how you used melted chocolate on top of the marshmallows. Thanks for sharing on Showcase Your Talent Thursday. I hope to see you there next week!
Um….I’m 34 and my only camping experiences were in an RV that ended when I was 15 and stopped vacationing with my parents. I deem “camping” as a Motel 6. So, no, first time camping at 26 is not weird.
Love these cookies, I’ll eat them and pretend to be outside.
lol… yes Dorothy.. i’ll be enjoying these cookies on the couch. not sitting in the dirt.
OMG I hate camping, never ever want to go again. But smores are the best part, if you have to go;p
Sue – i couldn’t agree more!!
Thanks so much for linking up to Creative Thursday this week.
I actually love camping and we did it for almost 20 years before we bought a 5th wheel which is kinda still camping but I think of it more as our movable apartment because it has all the same amenities. lol I would definitely make these to take with us.
I can’t wait to see what you link up next week. Have a wonderful weekend.

For the marshmallows, are the jumbo ones the biggest ones that you can get? I found jet puffed and campfire sized at Wal-mart and wasn’t sure..haha.
Hey Emily! Just the regular jet-puffed kind.
OMG! your website is amazing!!!!!!. You are so talented. I too create a whole bunch of tasty wacky ideas for desserts(homemade)! I am thinking about starting my own business catering to desserts and was browsing different websites/website designs. You should be making money off of this website lol. I am a new fan. Keep it up. : )
Hi Air! THank you so much – you are SO sweet! Starting your own business, especially if you’re passionate about baking – I completely support that! Good for you.
Thank you so much for visiting. Let me know any wacky desserts you make!
Love your site! I just had an INSANELY delicious cookie that seems like a slight variation on this. They were made in mini muffin tins, baked 8-10 min., filled with a Rolo and topped with 3 mini marshmallows, returned to oven for 3 min., and then drizzled with melted chocolate chips (1 cup for 24 cookies.) They were so good I’ve become a little obsessed. And pretty to look at. I was looking for a picture of them, and your cookies caught my eye. Seeing your other cookie posts, and your love of new cookies, I thought you might want to give this variation a try sometime!
Thanks for the fun blog!
Carey. I think I love you. I LOVE THIS IDEA! What an amazing suggestion. I’m writing it all down right now. I have got to try this. Thank you so much, really! Thank you for following my blog and I’m glad you enjoy it. It was so thoughtful of you to send in this cookie suggestion, I really appreciate it!
My cousin gave me an awesome idea for making smores at home. Roasting marshmallows at home is easy because they won’t burn as easily over your stove! You just put your stove on high and stick your marshmallow on a fork.
