Description

These Peanut Butter S’mores Sandwich Cookies are the ultimate indulgent treat! Soft and chewy peanut butter cookies are filled with a toasted marshmallow and a square of melty chocolate—just like a s’more, but even better. Perfect for bake sales, summer gatherings, or anytime you want a sweet, gooey dessert!


Ingredients

For the Peanut Butter Cookies:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 tsp baking soda

  • 1/4 tsp salt

For the Filling:

 

  • 12 large marshmallows (cut in half)

  • 6 oz milk chocolate, broken into squares (or chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

  2. Make the cookie dough:
    In a large bowl, beat butter, peanut butter, and both sugars until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla; beat until combined.
    In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet mixture and mix until just combined.

  3. Scoop and bake:
    Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place on prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Flatten slightly with a fork in a criss-cross pattern.
    Bake for 8–10 minutes, until edges are lightly golden. Let cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

  4. Assemble the s’mores cookies:
    Once cookies are cooled, turn half of them upside down. Place a piece of chocolate on each upside-down cookie, then top with a halved marshmallow.

  5. Melt the marshmallow:
    Toast marshmallows under a broiler for 30–60 seconds or use a kitchen torch. Alternatively, microwave each stack for 10–15 seconds until soft and gooey.

  6. Make the sandwich:
    Top each marshmallow with another cookie to form a sandwich. Press gently to seal.

  7. Serve:
    Enjoy warm and gooey, or let cool for a set, chewy treat!


Notes

  • Use homemade or store-bought cookies if you’re in a pinch.

  • Want extra crunch? Add crushed graham crackers to the cookie dough!

 

  • Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days (they’re best the day they’re made).
