S’mores Cookie Cups are a fun way to enjoy a childhood favorite treat only you don’t need to stand around a campfire to make them. Just like my recipe for Air Fryer S’mores, you can skip the campfire and enjoy this delicious summery treat all year long by baking them in the oven.
Can you believe I didn’t have my first s’more until I moved to Pennsylvania almost 16 years ago? And now I’m sharing with you this incredible recipe for S’mores Cookie Cups which tastes just like you’re sitting in front of a campfire enjoying that delicious treat.
However, you make these in your oven. And they’re not as messy. Which is why I never tried s’mores when I was younger. I still don’t care for messy, gooey food.
You’ll be happy you have this recipe because you can now enjoy this chocolate, gooey marshmallow treat any time of year.

- Pastry Dough Tart Tamper – this is the same tool I use to make my mini quiche recipe.
- Muffin Pan
- Cooling Rack
Ingredients:
Exact measurements are listed below in the recipe card. Make sure you scroll down to print and save the recipe for later!
- Graham cracker crumbs
- Powdered sugar
- Melted butter
- 2 bars (1.55 oz each) milk chocolate candy
- 12 large marshmallows
Directions
Combine the graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar and melted butter. Place 1 tablespoon of the crumb mixture into the bottom of a cupcake pan that has been lined with paper cupcake liners.
Press the crumbs into the pan to make little cups – you can use your fingers or the back of a spoon. However, I like to use a Pastry Dough Tart Tamper. Bake at 350 for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the edges are slightly browned.
Break up the chocolate candy bar and add a piece to the top of each graham cracker cookie crust. Next add a marshmallow on top.
Return the tray back to the oven for a few more minutes or until the marshmallows are softened and just beginning to melt.
You may need to”help” flatten the marshmallow by pushing down on top with the back of a spoon.
Remove pans from oven to cooling rack; cool 15 minutes. Carefully remove cups from pan. Cool completely before serving.
If you want, you could drizzle the tops of the marshmallows with melted chocolate. But I really thought these were sweet enough just as they are.
Cookie Cup Variations
You can definitely swap out the traditional Hershey chocolate candy bar and use another favorite such as any of the following:
- Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups – you can use either the mini or regular size candies.
- Chocolate kisses – maybe even chocolate kisses with nuts!
- Bite sized candy bars – there are so many now that it might be hard to choose. Definitely try Snickers or Kit Kat to start.
- You could even try replacing the candy bars completely and use hazelnut spread or maybe even peanut butter!

I came over from Weekend Potluck to get this great looking recipe. I will be visiting my great-grandson in a couple of weeks, and I think it would be fun to make these. I am a new follower on GFC. Paysu
These look YUMMY! I can see serving these cupcakes at our next block party or after grilling by the pool.
Thank you for sharing!
I really need to get my fire pit going so I can make smores…thanks for this recipe.
My weekend started with a Bingo Benefit for our volunteer fire department, today babysitting a friend's children, tonight an auction and tomorrow…REST! after church.
These look delicious. I'll pass along the recipe to my sis for her grands. Enjoy the weekend, Lois.

You and the colonel sure maintain nice trim figures for people who get such yummy things to eat! I wish I could. Those look good!

They look fantastic!
YUM! How easy and fun! I would have to buy extra chocolate to make these, though…you always should test a LOT of it beforehand to make sure it's not poisonous or has gone bad, etc.
Those look really good 🙂
Love your Mother's Day gift, it's actually on my wish list as well LOL
You have a sweet tooth that matches mine, Lois!
