The Perfect Fall Cookie
What's your favorite fall cookie? We all have our own preferences, but for me, Pumpkin S'mores Cookies are the absolute way to go. What's a "s'mores cookie," you ask? It's a cookie with all the flavors of a classic s'more - graham crackers, chocolate, and marshmallows - but with a fall twist of pumpkin and warm spices.
The key to making perfect pumpkin s'mores cookies is paying VERY close attention to your baking time so they have the perfect chewy texture. (While I love a crispy cookie, I find it disheartening when you bite into what you think is a chewy cookie only to find it crunchy all the way through!)

Recipe Ingredients
The picture below shows all the ingredients for this recipe, and special notes are included in the bulleted list below to assist you.

- Flour: All-purpose flour forms the base of the cookie dough.
- Pumpkin Pie Spice: The key to that warm, autumn flavor. If you don't have any you can make my DIY pumpkin pie spice.
- Butter: Use unsalted, softened butter so it mixes easily.
- Sugars: A combination of brown and granulated sugar for the perfect texture and flavor.
- Pumpkin Puree: Use pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.
- Graham Crackers: You'll need to break them into fairly large chunks.
- Mini Marshmallows: These get gooey and delicious. You can also use regular marshmallows and cut them into bite-sized pieces.
- Chocolate Chips: Semi-sweet work best, but you can use milk chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, or dark chocolate chunks.

How To Make Perfect Pumpkin S'mores Cookies
Each number in the photos below corresponds to the numbered steps in the instructions.
- Preheat and mix dry ingredients: Preheat your oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk together 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice, and ½ teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Cream the butter and sugars: In a large bowl or stand mixer, cream together ¾ cup softened unsalted butter, ¾ cup packed brown sugar, and ½ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the wet ingredients: Beat in 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and ¾ cup pumpkin puree until smooth.
- Combine wet and dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.

- Add the mix-ins: Fold in 1 cup of crushed graham crackers, 1 cup of mini marshmallows, and ¾ cup of chocolate chips.
- Scoop the cookies: Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Add topping: Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips on top of each cookie.
- Bake the cookies: Position the oven rack in the middle and bake one cookie sheet at a time for 14-15 minutes. The cookies are done when the edges turn golden brown, and the centers appear set but still soft. Note: While the first batch bakes, prepare the next batch on a cool cookie sheet. This way, your second sheet will be ready to go in the oven when the first batch is done. Rotate between sheets for each batch.

- Cool and serve: The cookies should be cooled on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before being transferred to a wire rack to cool completely.

Top Tips
- If you prefer a stronger pumpkin spice flavor, you can increase the pumpkin pie spice to 2 ½ or 3 teaspoons.
- Use a cookie scoop for uniformly sized cookies that will bake evenly. Don't overbake!
- The cookies may look slightly underdone in the center, but they'll continue to set as they cool.

How To Serve Pumpkin S'mores Cookies
Here are a few different ideas for serving these chewy fall cookies:
- Ice cream sandwiches: Sandwich a scoop of vanilla ice cream between two cookies for an easy dessert.
- Crumbled over yogurt: Crumble a cookie over your morning yogurt for a sweet breakfast treat.
- With hot cocoa: Serve alongside a mug of hot chocolate.
- Gift giving: Package these cookies in a cute box or jar for a homemade holiday gift.
- Bake sale: These unique cookies will be a hit at any bake sale or school event.
- Thanksgiving dessert: Offer these as an alternative (or addition) to traditional pumpkin pie.
Storage and Freezing Tips
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. To freeze, place cooled cookies in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze until solid. Then transfer to a freezer-safe bag or container. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
