How to Make a Gluten Free S'mores Cookie Cake

1. Prepare the cookie crust

Start by lining the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan with parchment paper. Let the Sweet Loren's cookie dough soften at room temperature for about 5 minutes.

Place the cookie dough portions into the bottom of the pan and press them together to create one even layer.

You want the dough to cover the bottom of the pan as evenly as possible so the cookie cake bakes consistently.

2. Bake the cookie cake

Bake the cookie crust at 325°F for about 20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned.

Keep an eye on it toward the end of the baking time because ovens can vary.

The cookie crust will continue to set as it cools, so don't worry if the center still looks slightly soft when it first comes out of the oven.

3. Add the marshmallows

Once the cookie crust is baked, switch your oven to the broiler on low.

Sprinkle the mini marshmallows evenly over the top of the cookie cake.

Place the pan under the broiler for about 1 minute, watching very carefully.

Marshmallows can go from perfectly toasted to burnt very quickly, so don't walk away during this step!

4. Drizzle with chocolate

Melt the chocolate chips with the coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval.

Once smooth, drizzle the melted chocolate over the toasted marshmallows.

Let the cookie cake cool completely before slicing.

Tips for Making the Best Gluten Free Cookie Cake

Don't skip the parchment paper. It makes removing and serving the cookie cake much easier.

Watch the marshmallows closely. Broiling only takes about a minute, but the exact timing can vary depending on your oven.

Let it cool before cutting. The marshmallow and chocolate layers need a little time to set so you can get cleaner slices.

Want to serve it warm? Bake the cookie crust ahead of time. When you're ready to serve, add the marshmallows and broil them, then drizzle with melted chocolate. This gives you that warm, gooey s'mores experience right before serving.

An Easy Gluten Free Dessert for Any Occasion

One of my favorite things about this gluten free s'mores cookie cake is that you don't have to wait for summer.

Yes, it's perfect for backyard barbecues, pool parties and summer nights, but it's just as fun to make during the colder months when you're craving something warm and chocolatey.

Serve slices on their own or add a scoop of your favorite gluten free ice cream for an extra-special dessert.

It's also a fun recipe to make with kids. They can help press the cookie dough into the pan, sprinkle on the marshmallows and drizzle the chocolate once the cookie cake has cooled.

And because there are only a handful of ingredients, this is one of those easy gluten free desserts you can make without a long shopping list or complicated preparation.

With only three ingredients, this dessert couldn't be any easier to make. It's everything you love about S'mores, only better! Whatever the season, rain or shine, you can have the taste of s'mores anytime and anywhere!
