Graham Cracker S'mores Cookies {Recipe}

You might be noticing a theme here, after the S'mores Cupcakes and S'mores Pops I've already posted this week.   To me, s'mores and summer just go hand in hand and I thought they deserved a special place on Glorious Treats, a full week of s'mores! 

These cookies are a fun take on s'mores and would be perfect to bring to a summer BBQ or pack in a picnic.  They are basically a s'mores version of chocolate chip cookies- two all-American treats are better than one, right?   

Graham Cracker S'mores Cookies

2/3 cup butter, at room temperature

1 cup brown sugar

1 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)

2 regular sized Hershey bars, each piece printed with "Hershey" cut in half

2 packages graham crackers- broken into squares (1/2 of a full graham cracker sheet)

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).
