Equipment

  • baking sheet
  • Silicone mat or parchment paper
  • mixing bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 2¾ c Graham cracker crumbs approx. 18 whole crackers
  • ¼ c Granulated sugar
  • ¼ c Packed dark brown sugar
  • ½ tsp Baking soda
  • 8 tbsp Unsalted butter 1 stick (melted & cooled)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • ¼ tsp Kosher salt
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract

Optional to make smores graham cracker cookies

  • 1½ c milk chocolate chips
  • 1 c mini marshmallows

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350℉ and prepare your baking sheet with either a silicone mat or parchment paper.
  • Either use graham cracker crumbs or throw 18 whole graham crackers into a food processors or smash them in a plastic bag until they are crumb size.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together both sugars, baking soda, and salt to combine.
    ¼ c Granulated sugar, ¼ c Packed dark brown sugar, ½ tsp Baking soda, ¼ tsp Kosher salt
  • Now, mix in the melted butter, egg, and vanilla and mix with a spatula. Incorporate in the graham cracker crumbs with a spatula.
    8 tbsp Unsalted butter, 1 egg, 1 egg yolk, 1 tsp Vanilla extract, 2¾ c Graham cracker crumbs
  • If you are going to make the smores graham cracker cookies, now is the time to add in the chocolate chips and marshmallows.
    1½ c milk chocolate chips, 1 c mini marshmallows
  • Roll up about 1 ½ Tablespoons of the mix in your hands to form a ball. The heat from your hands really helps with this dough. Try to keep the marshmallows in the center of the dough ball.
  • Space the dough balls about 2 inches apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 6-7 minutes. Leave the cookies on the baking sheet to cool for 10 minutes before using a flat spatula to transfer off the cookie sheet.

Notes

*This dough doesn't have any flour in it so it's a different consistency. Working it with your hands really helps to create a nice dough ball. 
*If using chocolate chips and marshmallows try to keep the marshmallow in the middle of the dough ball.
*Only bake for 6 -7 minutes before the cookies start to deflate and the marshmallows melt all over the baking sheet. 
*Cool on cookie sheet before transferring them off with a flat spatula. 
*You can add 1/2 - 3/4 c of flour to this recipe if you want a fluffier cookie while decreasing the graham cracker crumbs to 2 cups of graham cracker crumbs.
