What You’ll Need For Pumpkin S’mores Cookies
- Yellow Cake Mix– Pillsbury or Duncan Hines is what I’ve used.
- salted butter– For most of my cooking and baking I use salted butter. Unsalted works fine too.
- canned pumpkin– Find canned pumpkin puree down the baking isle of the grocery store.
- pumpkin pie spice blend- Find pumpkin spice down the spices section of the grocery store.
- mini chocolate chips– Mini chocolate chips can be found by the regular chocolate chips.
- mini marshmallows– Mini marshmallows get pressed on the top of the cookies.
- graham crackers– You’ll use broken pieces of graham cracker to add to the top of the cookies.
- snack size Hershey’s Bars– Hershey Bar pieces are pressed into the top of the cookies.
How To Make Cake Mix Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and line baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place cake mix, butter, pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice into a large mixing bowl. Stir until combined and dough is formed. Stir in chocolate chips then scoop dough with a medium cookie scoop onto prepared baking sheet placing 1 inch apart. Bake for 12 minutes, until cookies are baked through. Remove from oven and immediately press 2 mini marshmallows towards one end of each cookie and 2 pieces of graham cracker next to the marshmallow. Press 2 small Hershey’s squares in front of marshmallows and graham crackers. Let cookies cool before serving. Chocolate and marshmallow will melt slightly. Serve cookies room temperature.
Once dough is combined fold in mini chocolate chips. Regular size chocolate chips work too if you prefer.
Use a medium-large cookie scoop to scoop dough onto parchment lined baking sheet.
Once scooped, gently press tops of cookie dough so they’re flattened slightly. Spraying fingers with cooking spray helps so dough doesn’t stick to fingers.
Bake cookies for about 12 minutes and remove from oven. As soon as you remove cookies from oven press graham crackers and marshmallows first into the hot cookies. When those are arranged add the small piece of Hershey’s bar. Chocolate will melt slightly. Let cool completely before serving.
How To Serve Pumpkin S’mores Cookies
