S’Mores Cookies – The Best Girl Scouts Copycat Recipe

Bring the campsite home with these easy-to-make s’mores cookies, similar to the ones the Girl Scouts sell, with 3 easy ingredients.

Jump to Recipe

Let me start by telling you these cookies are A-MAZ-ING! And so simple to make. I love s’mores and it’s one of my favorite parts of camping. So, when the Girl Scouts came out with s’mores cookies a few years ago, that was added to my staple order of Thin Mints.

But, the s’mores cookies don’t last long, especially with the sweet tooth that we all have in my house. Since I first tried out this delicious cookies recipe a few months ago, we’ve made them at least 3 times. 

The best part is how quick and easy this s’mores cookies recipe is to make. There’s no need to bake the cookies, so no dirtying a cooling rack, stand mixer or electric hand mixer, or the food processor. 

I made the s’mores cookies for my family when we went to our beach condo, along with the Key Lime Frosted Cookies. They didn’t even last a day and became their favorite recipe for cookies. 

When we go camping with the Cub Scouts, I want to make these to bring with us. We will still roast marshmallows, but it’s hard to get so many people around a campfire. So, this could be an option for those who want to have a cookie instead of traditional s’mores.

Simple Ingredients

Graham Crackers

You’ll want to get the plain graham crackers or honey graham crackers for this recipe. The whole graham crackers will be split in half to form the base of the cookies. 

Marshmallow Fluff

A jar of marshmallow fluff or marshmallow cream works best to get that gooey marshmallow center. If you can’t get the jarred marshmallows, simply melt some mini marshmallows or cut large ones into marshmallow bits and melt them with a little bit of unsalted butter, similar to making rice krispies treats. 

Baking Chocolate

You will need lots of chocolate to coat the s’mores cookies. Any chocolate will work, such as a milk chocolate bar, milk chocolate chips, semi-sweet chocolate chips, or any melted chocolate. Make sure you have plenty of rich chocolate to coat the cookies because each cookie uses a lot more chocolate than I would have originally thought. I can typically find any chocolate in the baking aisle at the grocery store. 

Suggestions & Tips

  • Turn these into a vegan snack by using vegan marshmallows and vegan chocolate
  • Before you freeze the cookies for a final time, sprinkle a little bit of kosher salt on top of the cookies for a sweet and salty combination
  • Scale the recipe by using a large baking sheet and more crackers, marshmallows, and chocolate
  • Make larger cookies by using the entire graham cracker for each cookie

S’Mores Cookies Step by Step

Ingredients

  • 9 graham crackers
  • 3 oz marshmallow fluff
  • 12 oz baking chocolate

Preparation

Break the graham crackers in half and lay the graham cracker pieces in a single layer on parchment paper on a cookie sheet.

Cover each of the crunchy graham crackers with a small scoop of marshmallow fluff.

Freeze for 5-10 minutes to let the gooey marshmallows harden. Meanwhile, break the chocolate into pieces and place it in a small casserole dish.

Heat the oven to the lowest setting and bake for about 5-10 minutes, until the chocolate looks soft. Stir the chocolate and reheat if it isn’t all melted, but do not cook too long that the chocolate seizes up or you won’t be able to coat your s’mores cookies.

Coat the graham crackers in chocolate. Flip to coat both sides.

Place the cookies back on the lined baking sheet.

Freeze another 10-15 minutes to let the chocolate harden. Serve cool and keep in the refrigerator so the chocolate doesn’t melt.

S’mores Cookies Leftovers

Storage: Store extra s’mores cookies in an airtight container or ziplock bag in the refrigerator. I like to keep them in the refrigerator so the chocolate and marshmallow don’t melt. But, we also live in a very warm, humid climate. If you are somewhere that’s cooler, then you can likely leave them in a container on the counter at room temperature.

  1. I love this recipe! My sister can eat s’mores all day everyday but we don’t always time to make them. This is such a great alternative.

  2. Oh wow these look AMAZING!! I could just eat a few of these…no in fact I think I could probably eat them all xx

  3. What?! This is a game changer. I can’t wait to try this recipe! It looks like might be a bit messy letting the 4 year old help, but I know we’ll both enjoy these cookies so much.

    1. Yeah, they didn’t last long here! We’ve made them a few times and it’s so hard not to eat them all. They are also very light, we made them when we were at a beach condo and they were a great cool snack since I keep them refrigerated.
