S’mores Cookies

I’ve had these cookies starred in my Google Reader for quite some time now. I knew I wanted to make them once I got the idea to do a week of smores recipes. These cookies taste just like smores and are so cute with the little chunks of Hershey bars and mini marshmallows poking out all over the place.

I’m not a huge fan of thin cookies, but these sure were tasty. And ooey and gooey just like smores you’d make at a campfire.

Yield: ~3 dozen

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 dash of cinnamon
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
1 1/2 cups mini marshmallows
3 Hershey bars, chopped

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

In a medium bowl combine the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking soda, salt, and dash of cinnamon. In a second larger bowl beat together the butter, sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract until creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Slowly beat in the flour mixture until smooth. Stir in the chocolate chips. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased cookie sheet.

Bake for 8 minutes, and remove from the oven. Push 3 to 4 marshmallows and a few pieces of hershey bar into each cookies. Return to the oven and bake an additional 2-3 minutes until fully cooked. Cool cookies on a wire rack.

Happy birthday! Today is my husband’s birthday, and he also requested a chocolate cake. I baked him Ina Garten’s Beatty’s chocolate cake. Your chocolate cake may be the one I bake for my birthday later this year. 🙂

and if i want to make this 9 x 13?any caveats? i never know if i can just change pan size and oven time/temp?
- beantownbaker — June 18th, 2013 @ 4:05 pm
  
  Two 9″ round pans is the same amount of cake batter as a 9×13 pan. I’d probably use the same temp and start checking around the same time. But I would expect it to take longer to bake in the end.

The cake turned out amazing and was a huge hit! Most of the kids weren’t a huge fan but i don’t think they have learned to appreciate dark chocolate 🙂

  Glad it was a success (for the adults!)
