Do you like eating s'mores, but do not like the mess of a sticky campfire? These S'mores Cookie Cups are the perfect solution. Plus, this way you can enjoy them year round.
I adore a delicious, sticky, roasted marshmallow pressed between chocolate bars and graham crackers.
But when my kids were younger I had a heart attack almost every time we did a campfire and made s'mores. Little kids, long pointy sticks, and fire do not make a good mix. Oh, and the sticky marshmallow guts that ended up just about every where. Yeah...that was awesome too!
Now that my kids are older, it has gotten better. Well, slightly. They still wave the sticks around in faces and get too close to the fire. I just don't worry as much about it now.
I still don't like the sticky marshmallow that ends up everywhere, so I found a fun and cute way to enjoy s'mores. There is no worry and only minimal mess with these cookies.
Roll sugar cookie dough in chocolate graham crackers and baked them in mini muffin tins. After they cooled, you will fill them with some chocolate spread. Try to resist licking the spoon while you do this! Top with some mini marshmallow and place under the broiler for a few seconds. Watch the marshmallows carefully here! You do not want to burn your cookie cups. Well, unless you were one of those kids that always caught their marshmallows on fire. Then have at it...just be warned that your house will probably smell like that burnt sugar for hours.
Have you tried this Hershey's Spread yet? Oh, my word! Seriously amazing stuff. I may or may not have finished off the jar with a spoon.
These little S'mores Cookie Cups are adorable and totally pop-able. Good luck trying to resist popping like 5 in your mouth.
Now that we can have cute s'mores all year long in a cookie cup, I may give up campfires completely.
Naaaahhh! That's just silly talk. There is something so relaxing about sitting around a fire late at night. Of course, in order for it to be relaxing, I suggest putting the kids to bed first. Then enjoy your s'mores without pointy sticks being poked in your face and sticky guts wiped on your chair.
Or just make these S'mores Cookie Cups and hide them in a container on the counter. No one has to know they are there, right?

The I adore these! I made them last night and were so easy to do. I will be serving them at my husband's surprise retirement party that has a camping theme. Thank you for a wonderful idea.
Heather in Upland
Mmm, looks good! Is that 1/4 CUP graham crackers, or 1/4 box? Or just 1/4 of a cracker, LOL? I'm guessing 1/4 cup but I'd love a hint. Thanks for sharing!
Jocelyn
Whoops! Yes, that is 1/4 cup crumbs. I am so sorry about that. Thank you for letting me know...I'm fixing it now.
Lynn Bailey
I will forever more think of "marshmallow guts" when I see a roasted marshmallow! Never heard that term before, but is so appropriate! LOL! Thanks Jocelyn!

What a genius idea! These are so cute!
Amy @ Amy's Healthy Baking
These s'mores cookie cups are totally genius Jocelyn -- pinning!! 🙂 I loved s'mores as a kid; we'd go camping at least twice a summer and always bring a cooler with the supplies each time. But as I grew older, I found I just wanted to toast the marshmallow... And give it away so I could have more chocolate and graham crackers. Strange, I know. But the pure sugar thing just didn't do it for me anymore. But I loved how soothing it was to sit in front of the campfire and concentrate on the perfect golden toastiness, and the friends and I family I handed them off to didn't mind at all!

Love the look of these pretty s'mores cups! I've always been a s'mores fan even up to the point that I've roasted marshmallows on skewers over a candle before, haha. This version is much safer and sure to be delish!
