This cookie recipe is from an old Everyday Food magazine. I love s’mores, so the idea of a s’mores cookie sounded delicious. I decided to make these years ago (what a good decision that was), and have been making them fairly regularly ever since. They’re pretty simple (although they do use both the food processor and the mixer), and are a nice change from the usual chocolate chip cookie scene.
S’mores Cookies
from Everyday Food/Martha Stewart
- 1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 3/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter (room temp)
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 7-8 oz chocolate, cut into about 30 squares (I like to buy the fair trade organic 72% dark Belgian chocolate at TJs for this — 2 bars, cut into 16 pieces each)
- about 15 large marshmallows, cut in half
- Preheat oven to 350°
- In a food processor, pulse oats until finely ground. Add flours, cinnamon,, baking soda and salt, then pulse to combine.
- Using an electric mixer, cream together butter and sugar in a large bowl, then beat in egg. With mixer on low, add in flour mixture and mix just until combined.
- Using a small cookie scoop, scoop dough onto baking sheets, and top each with a square of chocolate.
- Bake until just lightly golden (about 11-13 minutes), then remove sheets from oven.
- Heat broiler.
- Top each cookie with half a marshmallow (sticky side down), then place cookies under broiler until marshmallows are just browned (about 1 minute).
- Transfer cookies to wire rack to cool.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
