S'mores Cookie Squares

S'mores...who doesn't like them? Found a recipe that inspired me to create these little treats.







Ingredients:
11 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt (I used a little less)
1 tsp cinnamon
2 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips (or whatever type of chocolate chips you prefer)
1 cup mini marshmallows
3 regular sized Hershey's bars, broken into pieces
1-2 packages of graham crackers, broken into squares

Directions:

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, sea salt and cinnamon to combine. Set aside.
In the bowl of a standing electric mixer (I used a hand electric mixer), cream butter with white and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix until combined.
Add the flour mixture to the butter mixer and combine on low speed. Fold in the chocolate chips and marshmallows. Chill dough in refrigerator for 1 hour to overnight. 
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line baking pans with parchment paper. Lay out graham crackers side by side on the pans as close as possible, almost touching. Place tablespoons of dough on graham crackers about 1 – 1 ½ inches apart. I averaged about 1 ½ tablespoons of dough per graham cracker square as seen in the picture above. Press down slightly with fingertips.
Bake for 5 minutes then remove from oven to press Hershey’s bar pieces on to the top. You can place as many pieces or as little as you want depending how much chocolate flavor you want.
Bake for an additional 5 – 7 minutes or more if your cookies are thicker. They will be done when the edges begin to turn golden brown. Remove to a wire rack to cool. For clean cutting make sure cookies are completely cool and cut with a sharp knife.


Enjoy! :)
