Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup pure pumpkin puree
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup graham crackers, crushed

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
  3. Add the pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and pumpkin pie spice.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips and crushed graham crackers.
  7. Using a cookie scoop, drop dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set but the centers look slightly soft.
  9. While the cookies are still warm, gently press a few mini marshmallows into the top of each one.
  10. Pop the cookies back into the oven for 1-2 minutes to melt the marshmallows slightly.
  11. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a cooling rack.

Notes

[‘Chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking for thicker cookies.’, ‘Adjust pumpkin pie spice to your preference.’, ‘Use fresh marshmallows for better melting.’, ‘Avoid overbaking to keep cookies soft.’, ‘Add a pinch of flaky sea salt for a sweet-and-savory twist.’]
