To prevent s’mores cookies from exploding, follow these tips: (1) Chill the dough for 30-60 minutes after shaping to reduce spreading. (2) Encase the marshmallow properly by fully enclosing it within the dough to prevent expansion and leakage. (3) Use mini marshmallows or marshmallow bits instead of full-size ones, or cut large marshmallows into smaller pieces to minimize bursting. (4) Partially freeze marshmallows for 10-15 minutes before baking to slow down melting. (5) Shape the dough into rounded balls rather than flattening it, and place the seam at the bottom to secure the marshmallow. (6) Use marshmallow fluff instead of whole marshmallows for a gooey texture without excessive expansion.
