# How to Make It:
01 -
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 -
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
03 -
Beat in the pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined (add the orange food coloring into this step if you plan to use it).
04 -
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
05 -
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not over mix.
06 -
Gently fold in the chocolate chips, mini marshmallows and graham cracker pieces.
07 -
Using a small cookie scoop or spoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
08 -
Top each cookie dough ball by pressing in a few extra marshmallows, chocolate chips and/or pieces of graham crackers into the top of each one.
09 -
Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 14 minutes, or until the edges are golden but the center is still soft.
10 -
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
11 -
Serve the pumpkin s'mores cookies at room temperature.
# Tips and Suggestions:
01 -
For non-melting marshmallows: If you prefer marshmallows that maintain their shape, use vegan mini marshmallows which tend to hold their structure when heated.
02 -
When using orange food coloring, a little goes a long way. Add just a drop or two at a time.
03 -
Allow cookies to rest on the baking sheet for a few minutes after baking as they'll be quite delicate when first removed from the oven.
