I recently found myself once again in another cyber rabbit hole. During one of my 2am wake up calls (not by my choice, of course), I decided not to play my usual chicken rotisserie tossing around, and around, and around. I gave up and just got out of bed...that was my first mistake.
Later that day, we needed to move some furniture downstairs to make room for our plumber. My husband asked for my assistance. The giving wife that I am, I stopped everything and went down to help him.
The goal was to put our 100 pound dining table base on the rolling trolley that we use to move furniture. I held the trolley and he lifted the base so it would glide right on. Let me repeat that, the base was just going to "glide right on".
Before he even had it fully upright the entire base collapsed. Not to worry though, it didn't brake since my foot caught the whole thing! Mistake #2, don't move furniture on sleep deprivation. Please forgive my dry skin in photo. It hurts so bad to touch, I can't even put lotion on. Also, as a side note, no photoshopping was done...it is actually that green all around my foot. By the size of that lovely gash in there, looks like my leg modeling days are done, wouldn't you say?
Since we have been inundated with wind, ash, and heat over the summer, unfortunately we didn't get to enjoy as many fire table and s'mores nights like would have wanted.
In the same said Pinterest night I also saw a post for S'mores cookies which looked amazing, so I printed out the recipe. I went to make them and realized I lost the recipe. So, I Googled and found the recipe and made these...
Then I found the old recipe page that I thought I lost remember that whole sleep deprivation thing. After I made these, I looked back at the old recipe and realized it wasn't even the same?!?!
At any rate, these are wonderful and fun to make. Enjoy (and get some sleep).
S'mores Cookies
Courtesy of The Girl Who Ate Everything
11 Tbl unsalted butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp seat salt
1 tsp cinnamon
2-1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup mini marshmallows
3 regular sized Hershey's bars, broken into pieces
1-2 packages graham crackers, broken into squares
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, seat salt, and cinnamon to combine. Set aside.
In the bowl of an 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.
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 (they should be touching).
Place tablespoons of dough on graham crackers about 1-1/2 inches apart. Press down slightly with fingertips.
Bake for 5 minutes then remove from oven to press Hershey's bar pieces on to the top.
Bake 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.
