These rich, decadent dark chocolate s’mores cookies are sure to delight kids and adults alike! They are sinfully indulgent but playful all at once.
It’s S’mores Saturday, and today I have a real treat for you: Dark Chocolate S’mores Cookies! (And I do mean DARK! Yummmmm….)
Prepare yourselves for the richest s’mores inspired treats that you have ever tried! (Well, unless you’ve made my Decadent & Dark Chocolate S’mores Pie, that is….) These cookies are overwhelmingly rich. I had to eat mine with a tall glass of milk, but mmmmmm MMMMMMMM was it good!!
This recipe was adapted from a dark chocolate cookie recipe that my husband found in an America’s Test Kitchen cookbook. (We LOVE America’s Test Kitchen cookbooks!!) I used it as a jumping off point for the creation of these dark chocolate s’mores cookies.
Start by making the cookies, and after baking take the following steps to add the “s’mores” to the dark chocolate s’mores cookies.
Spread melted chocolate on top of the slightly to totally cooled cookie and liberally sprinkle graham cracker crumbs on top of it.
Top the cookie with mini marshmallows.
Place the cookie under a broiler until the marshmallows brown. WATCH CAREFULLY! They can burn in a matter of seconds.
Here is the full recipe for these dark chocolate s’mores cookies. I know you will love them. They are the perfect mix of rich “grownup” treat and whimsical “kiddie” treat. 🙂
