CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE S'MORES: Summer Treat

Summer is all about S'mores, so I've put together a few 'different' recipes for the ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookie S'mores. I welcome comments and more recipes.

Start with your favorite chocolate chip dough--or if you're baking-challenged, grab your favorite pre-made cookie dough at the grocery store. (My favorite is Nestle Toll House, the 'original' toll house cookie dough.).

Bake the cookies per instructions and remove half-way through the baking process. Note: the key to a great Tollhouse cookie is baking them at a low heat. 225-250?)

Remove the cookies from the oven and top with 3 mini-marshmallows (Depends on size of cookie, you can always add more)

Place back in the oven for the duration of the baking time (Note: do not over-bake cookie or caramelize marshmallows)

Remove from oven and sprinkle with crushed cinnamon graham crackers over the melted marshmallows.

Drizzle cookies with Hershey's Chocolate Syrup. Best served warm out of the oven.

Picky Palate had a really cool recipe for Chocolate Chip Cookie S'mores.. She calls them Oozing Chocolate Chip Cookie S'more Sandwiches. Everyone in the food community is so gracious, and Jenny gave me permission several years ago to reprint her recipe here--and use her fantastic photo!

She found one of the most interesting additions to her recipe at Target -- Kraft makes chocolate covered mini marshmallows. She mixed them into the cookie dough. How cool is that? Of course, you can make the dough with or without them.

Oozing Chocolate Chip Cookie S'more Sandwiches

Ingredients
2 sticks softened butter
3/4 Cups sugar
3/4 Cup brown sugar, packed
2 eggs
1 Tablespoon vanilla
2 1/2 Cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 oz package Kraft Chocolate Covered Mini Marshmallows, if you can find them --otherwise use the regular ones
1/2 Cup chocolate chips
1 1/2 Cups mini baking M&M's

Mini Marshmallows (less than 1 bag full)
Mini Hersey bars

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Beat butter and sugars in stand or electric mixer until well combined. 
Beat in eggs and vanilla until well combined as well. In a large bowl, whisk the flour, soda, and salt. 
Add to wet ingredients as well as marshmallows, chips, and M&M's until just combined. 
Spread onto a large rimmed baking sheet that's been lined with parchment paper and sprayed with cooking spray. 
Bake for 20-22 minutes or until edges are just turning golden brown. Remove and let cool completely.

Use your favorite cookie cutters to cut out shapes. Top bottom shapes with a layer of mini marshmallows and place under broiler until puffed. Top with Hershey bars to melt. Top with another cookie to close sandwich. Serve warm.

You'll love these!!
