S'more Cookies

I can hardly contain my excitement about this recipe!  I totally made these up and I was so nervous that they would not turn out, but the did and they are my new favorite cookie.  They are sooo good.  You need to give these a try.  While they may be a bit more work than regular s'mores they are much simpler and cleaner to eat.  Especially for kids.  Yummy, I love these, I will be making these all summer long!  I apologize for not getting very good pictures of these, I was too busy eating them to take too much time on a picture, but you get the idea.

Print Recipe

3 C flour
1 t  salt
1 t baking soda
1/2 C butter
1/2 C butter flavored shortening
3/4 C brown sugar
1 C sugar
2 eggs
1 T vanilla
1 package graham crackers, crushed (about 1 1/2 cups)
5 regular size Hershey bars
14 large marshmallows

Pre-heat oven to 350

In a large bowl, mix together the flour, salt and baking soda, set aside.  In another large bowl, cream together the butter, shortening and sugars with an electric mixer for about 2-4 minutes.  Add the eggs and vanilla and beat for another minute.  Slowly add the flour mixture and then the graham crackers.

Now time to create the masterpiece!  Separate your Hershey bars in to two squares each, they don't need to be hooked together.  Cut each marshmallow in half, this works best if the marshmallows are slightly frozen and using kitchen scissors.

Now scoop out a rounded tablespoon of dough and flatten it on your counter top. Place your chocolate on top and then top that with a marshmallow

Scoop out another rounded tablespoon of dough flatten it out and place on top of the marshmallow

Now, scoop the entire structure into your hands and form a nice round ball, place on a parchment lined cookies sheet.

Bake for 10-13 minutes.  Remove from oven and let sit for 3 minutes before transferring to a cool flat surface.
