Ingredients Needed for Oreo S’mores Cookies Cookie Dough
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted: Melted butter helps create a rich, chewy cookie texture.
- 1 ¼ cups brown sugar: Adds moisture and a hint of caramel flavor.
- ½ cup white granulated sugar: Balances the sweetness and helps achieve the right texture.
- 2 eggs: Provides structure and richness.
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract: Adds warmth and enhances the sweetness.
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour: All-purpose flour gives these cookies their base.
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda: Helps the cookies rise and prevents them from becoming too dense.
- ½ teaspoon salt: Balances the sweetness.
- 2 cups crushed Oreos: Adds chocolatey crunch and Oreo flavor; use regular or double-stuffed for extra decadence.
Topping

Step-by-Step Instructions for Oreo S’mores Cookies
- Prepare Your Baking Sheet:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9×13 baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Mix the Cookie Dough:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter, brown sugar, and white granulated sugar. Stir until well blended for a smooth, creamy base.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing thoroughly until fully incorporated and smooth.
- Combine Dry Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt to ensure even distribution.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined—overmixing can lead to tough cookies.
- Fold in the crushed Oreos, gently distributing them throughout the dough.
- Shape the Cookies:
- Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop large balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving enough space between each to allow for spreading during baking.
- Bake and Add Marshmallows:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
- After 5 minutes of baking, carefully place a jumbo marshmallow in the center of each cookie.
- Return the baking sheet to the oven for an additional 5-8 minutes, or until the marshmallows are soft and slightly toasted.
- Finish with Chocolate and Extra Oreos:
- Once the cookies are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes.
- Place a small square of Hershey’s chocolate in the center of each melted marshmallow and sprinkle extra crushed Oreos over the top.
- Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
