Detailed Directions and Instructions
Preheat the oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). This ensures that the cookies bake evenly.
Prepare the baking sheet
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This prevents the cookies from sticking to the sheet.
Mix the dry ingredients
In a bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set this mixture aside for later.
Creme the butter and sugars
In a large mixing bowl, beat together unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Add the eggs and vanilla
Add eggs and vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture. Mix until well combined.
Combine wet and dry ingredients
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet mixture. Stir until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
Fold in chocolate chips
Gently fold in chocolate chips and mini marshmallows, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Form the cookies
Using a cookie scoop or your hands, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Leave enough space between each cookie to allow for spreading.
Bake the cookies
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Cool the cookies
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy
Once fully cooled, serve the cookies and enjoy their delicious s’mores flavor!
