S’mores Cookies are one of the best cookie recipes I have ever made (or tried). These easy s’mores cookies are a favorite at our house for Christmas or for any time of year. It can be our little secret that they’re made with pre-made refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough, dipped in milk chocolate, then graham cracker crumbs. These are everything I love about s’mores in cookie form.

“These are, hands-down, our family’s favorite and most requested cookie and have been since 2017! They are everything you want in a cookie and look gourmet! Thank you for this delicious recipe!” -Stephanie

But sometimes, I crave that classic flavor without the hassle of building a fire. That’s when I turn to these Easy S’mores Cookies. They’re my little secret weapon: starting with pre-made chocolate chip cookie dough, I simply bake, top with marshmallows, and finish with a dip in melted chocolate and a sprinkle of graham cracker crumbs. The result? A delightful treat that captures all the magic of traditional s’mores, ready in just minutes.

This Essential Grocery List is an absolute life saver for my family on the busy weeks. When I started this journey to learn how to cook, I quickly realized that the first step in cooking is having staple ingredients on hand. I want to avoid having to run out to the grocery store every single time I prepare a new recipe. Having a well-stocked pantry has made my life in the kitchen so much simpler, because when it’s time to cook, I have what I need.
Essential Grocery List
It’s so helpful to have a basic grocery list to help me remember which foods to buy at the store. This food shopping list is my go-to!
It’s better to stock up on things like grains, seasonings and spices, baking essentials, oils, condiments, canned and frozen foods, etc. so I can just grab them when I need them. These things have a long shelf life , so I keep them in my kitchen for convenience.
However, I do have to go to the supermarket sometimes, and there’s a way to make that trip easy and hassle-free: I keep a grocery list! If I go in blindly, I’ll leave with things I don’t need, and nothing that actually helps me prepare a good meal.
In the list below, I’ve compiled everything I always have on my stock-up grocery list.
I’ve got you covered! I created an easy grocery list filled with all of the essentials. Plus there’s a free printable version that you can take with you to the grocery store. It has everything you need to stock your pantry, your freezer, and your refrigerator.

What to Buy at the Grocery Store
This is the perfect grocery list filled with all the basics and essentials. It should help get you going if you’re new to cooking, or if you’re just left staring helplessly at an empty pantry and don’t know how to fill it.

So print out our easy grocery list, stock up your pantry and fridge, and you’ll be cooking in no time!
