Aug 19, 2018 This s’mores cookies recipe is a flame-free rendering of the beloved campfire treat. And these Chocolate S’mores Cookies with Graham Cracker Pieces will have you reminiscing over July camping trips and sweet summer memories of days gone by in no time. With gooey, toasted marshmallows, graham cracker shards, and puddles of good, melty milk chocolate all embedded in a chewy, brownie-like vehicle, you get the best of your childhood memory with grown-up deliciousness and the double bonus of quantity and portability. I’ve been so excited to share this recipe with you. If you follow my Instagram stories, you may have witnessed my hours and many, many batches of cookie testing on a scorching July day. I had to get the marshmallow-to-base ratio just right, with a baking time and temperature so that the cookies were perfectly done and the marshmallows were melted and toasty. These S’mores Cookies, my friends, were a labour of love – but sharing them with you was totally worth nearly melting in front of a hot oven.
This is our first summer in a house after a decade of city condo dwelling and we are so in love with having our own outdoor space. So much, in fact, that we haven’t planned many getaways. Previously, we were gone half of summer to escape the busyness of downtown. But this year, we are totally just leaning into staycations — making the most of the long, warm nights to nest in our own backyard with bare toes in the grass. I recently got to spend five precious days and nights doing exactly that with my out-of-town sister – hanging out on the patio with no shoes, no makeup and no emails. Just lots of cookies (I made these for her!) and lots of laughter. She’s the only one in the world who I can count on to get my cheesy jokes and who in turn makes me laugh so hard that tears run down my leg.* (*See? She’ll get that.) Katie and I agreed that Chateau Ste. Michelle Riesling is a delicious sipping wine, perfect for those hot afternoons that fade into warm, cozy nights under soft blankets and magical, twinkling stars. (Well, she actually just said, “Mmm, this is really good!” and then tried extra hard all evening not to let the dog knock over her glass. I know what she meant, though. She’s a chemical engineer. I often have to fill in the narrative gaps.)
