How to Make S’mores Cookie Cups Recipe
- Step 1. Prepare the Oven – First, preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Step 2. Combine the Crust Ingredients – In a small bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, and melted butter.
Step 3. Prepare the muffin pan. Grease the mini muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray. Then pour the graham cracker crust mixture into the 24 cups. Carefully press the crumbs into the bottom of each cup.
Step 4. Bake the mini graham cracker crusts for about 4 minutes until golden brown. Then top with 2 to 3 marshmallows.
Step 5. Broil the Marshmallows for 1 to 2 minutes. Just until the marshmallows are soft and beginning to look toasted. They can burn quickly so don’t walk away. Then top with one piece of Chocolate Bar. Allow to cool then use a butter knife to lift them from the pan.
Storage
If you have leftover S’mores Cookie Cups, store them in an airtight container at room temperature. To reheat them, place them in a microwave safe plate and heat for about 10 seconds.
You can also freeze these cookies cups. Place leftover S’more cookies cups in a freezer safe container. They will stay fresh for up to 2 months.
Once you are ready to serve again, just set them out and let them reach room temperature.
Pro Tips
- Use a Mini Muffin Pan – Make sure you have a mini muffin pan. This is the perfect size of pan make these delicious little s’mores cups. This is the perfect size to serve for parties and more. My pan is Wilton and works great but just use what you prefer or already have.
- Graham Cracker Crust – It is also helpful to use a food processor to get the graham crackers really fine. If you don’t have one, you can crush them in a ziploc bag.
- Use a Rolling Pin – You can also crush the graham cracker sheets in a zip lock bag with a rolling pin. You can also use a stand mixer.
- Watch the marshmallows closely. They don’t take long to toast and it’s very easy to burn them.
- Regular marshmallows. If you don’t have mini, cut the regular marshmallows in half and again to make them smaller. We have even used homemade marshmallow fluff.
- Remove from pan. To remove the graham cracker cookie cups from the pan, make sure they have cooled completely. Then gently take a butter knife around the edges of the graham cracker crust and lift up then remove from pan.
Can I Use Other Types of Chocolate?
Yes, you can. We used the traditional Hershey’s Milk Chocolate mini bars, but you can definitely use what you have. Here are some we recommend.
- Mini Peanut Butter Cups
- Hershey’s Kiss
- Rollo’s
- Dark Chocolate
- Mini Snicker Bars
- Hot Fudge Syrup or Caramel Syrup

Could you make these with regular muffin cups?
I haven’t tried it before, but I think it would work great. I would put the ingredients for 2 of the mini ones in each of the regular size cups. Let us know how it turns out! Thanks.
