Ingredients
Scale
- 170 g (3/4 cup) unsalted butter
- 210 g (1 1/2 cups) all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 165 g (3/4 cup) light brown sugar
- 70 g (1/3 cup) granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 113 g (4 ounces) semisweet chocolate, chopped
- 45 g (2/3 cup) broken graham crackers, about 3 sheets
- 60 g (1 cup) marshmallows, each cut into 4 pieces
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Continue to heat, while occasionally stirring, until the butter has brown specks throughout. Careful not to burn the butter. Remove from heat and transfer to a large bowl. Set aside to cool, but not thicken.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Once the butter is at room temperature, whisk in the eggs, both sugars, and vanilla extract.
- Add the dry ingredients to the mixture and fold together until combined. Add the chopped chocolate and mix just until incorporated. Carefully fold in broken graham crackers and marshmallows.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least two hours or preferably overnight.
- Remove your cookie dough from the refrigerator and allow sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes. Preheat the oven to 350°F/177°C. Line two baking sheet pans with parchment paper. Using a large ice cream scoop, scoop 18 cookie dough balls, and line them on your prepared sheet pans, allowing for plenty of space for spreading.
- Bake, one sheet at a time, for 10-11 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the centers still look slightly underbaked. Allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes on the hot sheet pan and then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Make-Ahead: You can make the cookie dough and chill it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days.
- Freezing: Freeze unbaked cookie balls for up to 3 months. When ready to bake, allow the dough to come to room temperature and bake as directed in the recipe. If baking without thawing, allow for an extra 2-3 minutes of baking time.
