S'more please

To prepare for Randy’s birthday we had to make sure we had lots of yummy treats.  My sister had made s’more cookies last week and since Randy loves s’mores I decided it was the perfect thing to make for Saturday morning while we opened up presents.

Adam got right to work helping me. 

I love baking with him.  The older he gets the more he gets into it and is able to help.  This time there was more eating of the ingredients (marshmallows and graham crackers are hard to resist) but it’s always fun to cook with him.  Here are the delicious cookies completed.

These are easy to make, so when you’re craving s’mores and don’t have a campfire nearby try these.
Ingredients:1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
20 large marshmallows, cut in half
About 40 chocolate kisses
Directions:Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.  In a large bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, flour, baking soda, and salt.  Set aside. In another bowl, beat the butter and sugars together until creamy and smooth.  Add in the egg and vanilla extract and mix until combined.  Slowly add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.  Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a baking sheet, 1-2″ apart.  Bake for 6-8 minutes or until edges are just getting golden brown.  Remove from oven and gently press a half marshmallow, sticky side down, onto each cookie.  Let cool completely.  Once all cookies are cooled down, preheat broiler.  Place cookies back on baking sheets and broil for 1-2 minutes, keeping a close eye on them so they don’t burn.  Once marshmallows are golden brown, remove from the broiler and place a chocolate kiss on top of each cookie.

In case you still doubt how good these are, just watch this. Please forgive my horrendous singing voice and concentrate on how cute Adam is and how he is unable to associate birthdays with anything besides ca
