S’mores Cookie Skillet
Summer 2020 has been…..interesting. Ironically, I’ve had some of the most meaningful moments with my kids and husband. Yes, most days I am not sure what day of the week it is, or month, but the marker of each day is mealtime. I don’t know if the slower pace of our lives has amplified my taste buds or heightened my sense of gratitude for the food we are blessed to eat, but we all enjoy every meal as if it’s our last or as if we have never eaten before. One of my favorite summer traditions we have made is a go-to dessert, s’mores. The other night the kids asked if we were doing s’mores. Truth be told, I was feeling lazy and didn’t want to build the fire. That’s when I whipped out my favorite cookie skillet recipe and threw all the s’mores ingredients in. S’mores and Cookie Skillet made a baby and let me tell you….she’s a keeper.
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 sticks softened butter
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar

- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (I like dark)

- 2 graham cracker sheets broken into large chunks
- 1 whole Hersheys chocolate bar broken into large chunks
- 10 large marshmallows
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 375
- Beat together butter, eggs, sugar and vanilla until creamy. About 2-3 minutes.

- Fold in the mini marshmallows and chocolate chips.
- Press the cookie mixture into the cast iron skillet and bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove the skillet and add the marshmallows and place all throughout the top of cookie leaving room fro graham crackers and chocolate chunks.
