Step 3: Add Eggs and Vanilla
Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Add the vanilla extract and mix until smooth and creamy.
The mixture should look silky and slightly thick.
Step 4: Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together:
• All-purpose flour
• Cornstarch
• Baking soda
• Sea salt
• Cinnamon (if using)
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing on low speed just until combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the cookies soft.
Step 5: Fold in the Chocolate
Using a spatula, gently fold in:
• ¾ cup semisweet chocolate chips
• ½ cup milk chocolate chunks
Distribute evenly so every cookie gets pockets of melty chocolate.
Step 6: Chill the Dough
Refrigerate the dough for 45 minutes.
This step helps:
• Prevent excessive spreading
• Intensify flavor
• Create thick, bakery-style cookies
If short on time, freeze for 20 minutes.
Step 7: Assemble the S’mores Surprise
Scoop about ⅓ cup of dough per cookie.
Flatten slightly in your hand.
Place in the center:
• 1 graham cracker square
• 1–2 pieces of milk chocolate
• 1 marshmallow
Top with another small piece of flattened dough and seal the edges completely, forming a thick ball.
Place on the baking sheet, spacing well apart.
Step 8: Bake to Golden Perfection
Bake for 13–16 minutes, until the edges are golden and the centers look slightly underbaked.
For a bakery finish, press a few extra chocolate chips on top immediately after baking and sprinkle lightly with flaky sea salt.
Step 9: Cool & Enjoy
Let cookies rest on the baking sheet for 5–7 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Serve warm for that irresistible gooey marshmallow pull, or let cool completely for a chewy, chocolate-packed treat.
