Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350º F and line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
Over the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugars on medium-high speed for 2-3 minutes, until light and fluffy.
1/2 Cup unsalted butter, 1/2 Cup light brown sugar, 1/4 Cup granulated sugar
Add the egg and beat on low speed until combined. Incorporate the peanut butter and vanilla extract, continuing to mix for another minute.
1 large egg, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, 1/2 Cup smooth peanut butter
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Avoid over-beating.
1 1/4 Cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt
Fold in 1 cup of chocolate chips gently with a wooden spoon.
1 Cup milk chocolate chips + 1/4 Cup for melting
Using a 1 1/2 teaspoon cookie scoop, form cookie dough balls and slightly flatten the top of each cookie. Place them 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets and press 3 mini marshmallows on top of each cookie.
48 mini marshmallows
Bake cookies for 8-10 minutes until the edges are golden brown. Allow cookies to cool on the cookie sheet for 1 minute, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Melt the remaining chocolate and place it in a ziplock bag or piping bag. Cut a tiny corner and drizzle melted chocolate over each cookie. Let cool completely before enjoying your delicious s’mores cookies.
