Equipment

  • 1 Medium saucepan for browning the butter
  • 1 Large mixing bowl and whisk
  • 1 medium bowl (for dry ingredients)
  • 1 Wooden spoon
  • 1 Parchment paper

Ingredients

  • 2 sticks Butter unsalted
  • ¾ cup Brown sugar
  • cup Sugar
  • 2 Eggs
  • 2 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 2 ½ cups Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking soda
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • ½ tsp Cinnamon
  • 1 ¼ cup Chocolate chips
  • 1 ½ cup Mini marshmallows

Instructions

  • Brown the butter: In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat, stirring constantly until it turns golden brown and smells nutty (about 5–7 minutes). Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
  • Mix the wet ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the browned butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla, mixing until combined.
  • Combine the dry ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
  • Fold in the add-ins: Gently fold in the chocolate chips and marshmallows to create gooey s’mores cookies.
  • Scoop the dough: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving 2 inches apart.
  • Bake: Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 9–11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look just set. For extra gooey centers, avoid overbaking.
  • Cool and enjoy: Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 2–3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Enjoy the melty chocolate and marshmallow goodness in these chewy, soft brown butter smores cookies!
