Take a generous scoop of cookie dough (about 1/2 cup per cookie) and carefully flatten it in your hand. Place one prepared s'mores filling (graham cracker, chocolate, marshmallow) in the center of the flattened dough. Gently wrap the dough around the s'mores filling, completely enclosing it and forming a large, somewhat spherical cookie dough ball, resembling a mini mountain. Repeat for the remaining s'mores fillings.

Place the formed cookie dough balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover the baking sheet with plastic wrap and transfer to the freezer for at least 30 minutes. This step is crucial for preventing the cookies from spreading too much during baking.

Remove the chilled cookie dough balls from the freezer. Place them on a baking sheet, leaving ample space between each cookie. Press the remaining 1/2 cup of chocolate chips onto the tops of the cookie dough balls, if desired, for extra chocolatey goodness.
