S’mores cookies and a little R&R

It’s Monday, It’s a Holiday, I have to work.

ergh! Unfortunately, I just did 3 back to back shifts, I’m exhausted and not to mention Saturday night I decided to relax and have fun by joining a few of my friends at a club called Don Coqui in New Rochelle. The music was good, the atmosphere better, and my company the best. But, perhaps that wasn’t the best idea when you have to work the next day…

so lets just say….IM EXHAUSTED.

Heres the thing: exhaustion cant stop you from doing what you love to do, because if that was the case I would never do anything lol

So this morning I was going through a few of my albums on iphoto and stumbled across an old picture for S’mores cookies that I made a while back for the people at my old job.

Originally the recipe came from Glorious Treats’ post but I like to think that there was a lil love in my cookies that made mine come out differently. Plus, I think the amount of sugar in the original recipe made them a bit too sweet. But if sweet is your thing go for it!

You will need:

  • 2/3 cup butter, at room temperature
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows, plus 1/4 cup for adding on top (as directed below)
  • 1 king size hersheys bar
  • 2 packages graham crackers- broken into squares
Directions-
Preheat oven to 375*F
Break graham crackers in half, so they are squares.  Lay crackers next to each other, in a single layer on a baking sheet (the size of your baking sheet will determine exactly how many crackers you need).
Bake graham crackers in pre-heated oven for 4 minutes.  Remove from oven and set aside to cool.
Cream the butter and sugars together in the bowl of an electric mixer.
Add egg and vanilla.
In a separate bowl stir flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.  Then add to butter mixture and mix until just combined.
Fold in chocolate chips and 1 cup marshmallows.
Use a large cookie scoop to scoop dough onto graham crackers (on baking sheet).
Bake for 5 minutes.  Then remove pan from oven and press about 2 pieces of chocolate and 2-3 marshmallows into each cookie.
Bake for 5-7 minutes more. Cool completely, then cut cookies into squares (where the graham crackers meet).
