Tips for the Best Gluten Free Vegan S'mores Cookies


Add Marshmallows to the Top

Pressing some marshmallows onto the tops of the cookies before baking creates that beautiful bakery-style look and gives you pockets of gooey marshmallow in every s'mores bite. We love the Dandies marshmallow brand, they are vegan, gluten free, and make the perfect s'mores!


Don't Skip the Cinnamon

A light dusting of cinnamon adds warmth and enhances the classic graham cracker flavor that people associate with traditional s'mores.


Use Quality Dairy-Free Chocolate Chips

Extra chocolate chips make these s'mores cookies extra rich and decadent. We love using high-quality vegan chocolate chips for the best flavor and texture. Our favorite brand is PaschaChocolate Chips.


Make Them Extra Large

For a bakery-style presentation, divide the dough into six large cookies instead of twelve regular-sized cookies. The result is a thick, chewy s'mores cookie that's perfect for sharing.

Notes and Baking Tips:


1. Neutral Cooking Oil: You can use any high heat oil, but we recommend Canola Oil, Vegetable Oil, or Avocado oil. If you are going to use Coconut Oil, melt it in the microwave and then let it cool for a couple of minutes.
