Ingredients (makes six cookies):
- 3 graham crackers (6 squares)
- 1-2 large chocolate bars (semi-sweet or milk chocolate)
- 6 jumbo marshmallows
- ~8 oz of chocolate chip cookie dough (homemade or store-bought)
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper. - Prepare the graham crackers:
Break each graham cracker into halves to create six squares. Place the squares on the prepared baking tray, leaving space between each one. - Add the chocolate and marshmallows:
Break the chocolate bar into small pieces and place 3-4 squares of chocolate on top of each graham cracker. Then, place one jumbo marshmallow on top of the chocolate on each graham cracker. - Top with cookie dough:
Scoop about 1 to 2 tablespoons of chocolate chip cookie dough and place it over each marshmallow. Press down gently to secure the dough. - Bake the cookies:
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-13 minutes, or until the cookie dough is golden brown and the marshmallows are slightly puffed. - Cool and enjoy:
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking tray for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy the gooey, chocolatey goodness!
These cookies are best enjoyed fresh from the oven when the chocolate and marshmallows are at their gooey peak!
