Smores Cookies




We've had a bit of snow lately, not a lot, but enough to make going anywhere not much fun.  Consequently we tend to stay inside, puttering around the house, guiltily enjoying being lazy and unproductive.  As most people do, I rashly resolved with the new year to eat more healthily. (healthy = eat only 5 cookies instead of 10).

However, being confined inside a house on a cold snowy day, with my cabinets piled with sugar, chocolate chips, and marshmallows, and my refrigerator well stocked with butter - my resolutions went out the window.  Since I'd been wanting to make some form of s'mores cookies for a while, and that bag of mini marshmallows looked awfully lonely on that shelf, I used this as an excuse and whipped up these little bites of heaven.

I have to say, these cookies are up there with my Chunky Twix Cookies, and I foresee a happy future with lots of S'mores Cookies, studded with little pillows of happiness (read: marshmallows) and full of sinful, melty goodness (read: chocolate).

This recipe has made it's away around food blogs, but it is originally from Anna of Cookie Madness.  And while my taste buds may praise her genius in creating these bad boys, my waist line a month from now may not:)  Eat one warm and fresh from the oven, you won't be sorry.


S'mores Cookies
(adapted from Cookies Madness)

1-3/4 cups all purpose flour
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 eggs
2 cups mini chocolate chips
1-1/2 cups mini marshmallows, or large ones cut up
2 Hershey bars, chopped

Preheat oven to 375F.  In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla to the butter mixture, and mix until combined. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, graham crackers, salt, and baking soda. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix well. Stir in the chocolate chips.

Use 2 tablespoons or a medium-sized ice cream scoop to drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto cookie sheets. Bake for 7 minutes and remove from oven. Push a few marshmallows and pieces of chocolate into each cookie and return to the oven to bake an additional 3-4 minutes. Allow to cool on a wire rack before inhaling the entire batch!

Evan @swEEts said...

I don't know what it is about smores but I love them.. everything about them.. so if there is a way to eat them more often, like in cookie form, then I can't wait!

Kate @ Diethood.com said...

Oh my goodness! These sound fantabulous! WOW - I'm salivating.

Holly said...

Yum! The best of both worlds-Smores and cookies!!!

There's no way I could stop myself from eating all of these. Smores are one of my favorite desserts, and when you throw em in a cookie and make them look that good! Yeah, no hope for me :)

That's the most gorgeous photo of those cookies I've seen yet! I so want to make these after seeing it. :) I'm trying to cut back as well, so I'll wait for our next potluck at school.That way I won't eat the whole batch myself.

Ha! Your idea of healthy matches mine to a tee. I love the look of these cookies!

Megan said...

These cookies look wonderful!! And I like how you kept the Hershey name intact - nice touch. Anyway I'm SURE I'm in the minority, but I'm not very fond of graham crackers. I do however LOOOOVE chocolate & marshmallows - so would you recommend I just make a standard choc chip cookie and add marshmallows? or can I replace the 1 c graham crackers with flour or something else...?? Thanks!

Nourhan @ Miss Anthropist's Kitchen said...

These look INCREDIBLE! I just discovered your blog and love it so far! Thanks for sharing! :)

Megan, Hi! You could certainly leave the graham cracker crumbs out if you wanted to, although the crumbs add more texture than flavor in this recipe. I didn't really notice the flavor of them. If you sub flour, you might need to play around with the amount, since flour willl absorb more moisture. I would start with less flour, maybe 1/2 c. to 3/4 c. Alternatively, you could use any chocolate chip cookie base, and add the marshmallows and chocolate as in this recipe. I hope this helps:)
