Ingredients
Wet Ingredients
- ½ cup butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
Sweeteners
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup light brown sugar (packed)
Dry Ingredients
- 1⅔ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Mix-ins
- ½ cup mini semisweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup mini marshmallows (halved)
- ¼ cup graham cracker crumbs
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and allow it to fully preheat to ensure even baking.
- Melt the Butter: Microwave the butter for about 40 seconds until melted. Whisk it well to smooth out any lumps and ensure even melting.
- Combine Sugars: Add the granulated and light brown sugars to the melted butter and mix well until fully blended and creamy.
- Add Vanilla and Egg: Stir in the vanilla extract and the egg until the mixture is smooth and fully incorporated.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Note: Properly measure flour by spooning it into the cup and leveling it off for accuracy.
- Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just combined to form a soft and slightly sticky dough. Avoid overmixing.
- Add Mix-ins: Gently fold in the mini semisweet chocolate chips, halved mini marshmallows, and graham cracker crumbs to distribute evenly throughout the dough.
- Shape Cookies: Using a medium cookie scoop or spoon, scoop about 3 tablespoons of dough for each cookie and place them on a baking sheet spaced 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
- Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes until they are set, puffy, and slightly underbaked in the center, which ensures a soft and gooey texture.
Notes
- For best results, measure flour carefully by spooning it into the measuring cup and leveling off to prevent dense cookies.
- Halving mini marshmallows helps them blend better and melt evenly inside the cookies.
- Do not overbake; cookies should look slightly underbaked in the center for chewy softness.
- Use parchment paper or a silicone baking mat on the baking sheet to prevent sticking.
- Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
