Ingredients
Scale
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup mini marshmallows (or regular, cut in half)
1 cup chocolate chips (milk, dark, or white)
1 cup crushed graham crackers (about 4–5 full sheets)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 3-4 minutes).
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until combined, creating a creamy mixture.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and baking soda until no lumps remain.
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, being careful not to overmix to retain tenderness.
Fold in the mini marshmallows, chocolate chips, and crushed graham crackers until evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.
Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cut into squares for serving.
Notes
A delightful twist on the classic s’mores that combines the warm, spicy notes of gingerbread with the nostalgic sweetness of marshmallows and chocolate.
