Ingredients
  

Cookie Base
  • 1 cup unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
  • 0.75 cup brown sugar packed
  • 0.25 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup pumpkin puree blotted to remove excess moisture
  • 1 large egg or just the yolk for extra chewiness
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
  • 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 0.5 tsp salt
Mix-ins for the S'mores Flavor
  • 1 cup chocolate chips or chocolate chunks
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows or chopped large marshmallows
  • 8 pieces graham crackers broken into small bite-sized pieces
Optional Add-ins for Topping
  • Extra chocolate chips for pressing on top before baking
  • Mini marshmallows a few more for topping
  • Crushed graham crackers for added crunch
  • Orange food coloring optional for festive fall color

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and glossy. Add the blotted pumpkin puree, egg or yolk, vanilla, and optional food coloring. Mix until fully combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Stir until just combined without overmixing.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips, marshmallows, and graham cracker pieces.
  6. Use a cookie scoop to form dough balls. Place on the baking sheet with about 2 inches between each.
  7. Press extra chocolate chips, marshmallows, and graham cracker crumbs onto each dough ball.
  8. Bake for 12–14 minutes, until edges are golden and centers are soft. Avoid overbaking.
  9. Cool cookies on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For extra chewiness, use only an egg yolk. Blot pumpkin thoroughly to prevent cakey texture. Swap flour and graham crackers for gluten-free alternatives if needed. Freeze baked or unbaked cookies for future treats.
