Tuesday afternoon it was 95 degrees in the shade – not exactly campfire fire weather at the cottage but that never stops us from eating campfire food, especially S’mores. We’ve made them in the microwave, under the broiler, and now with this great recipe from Cuisine at home magazine, we put some s’more cookies together on a baking stone.
S’more Cookies
It’s not only a hot week for our family here in Wisconsin, it’s also a busy one. It started on Monday morning with four haircuts, a severe bout of car sickness on the way to the cottage (we were getting a bit tired of that new car smell anyhow,) an orthodontist appointment, and then finally two football practices.
A few months ago a kind friend gifted to me a subscription to Cuisine at home. I’ve don’t recall ever following a recipe from a food magazine up until now and I am burning through this issue.
I’ve got to say, I love these cookies. I’m not going to tell you they are easy to make because I read somewhere that food bloggers are not suppose to write that. Suffice it to say, we threw these together in a snap.

August 26, 2014 at 12:41 pmI have to be honest. I am not a smores fan – never have been one. HOWEVER if I were to ever attempt a s’more again it would be this recipe. Beautifully choreographed along the way!

August 29, 2013 at 2:30 pmYou know I haven’t actually had one s’mores item this season! SO wrong! These cookies might be the fix I need 🙂

It’s clear to me this is some sort of wake-up call for you – get your s’more on before summer is gone!! Thanks for dropping by and thanks for the comment 🙂

August 29, 2013 at 1:58 pmThis is totally a “why didn’t I think of this?” recipe. What a great idea! Thanks for sharing your find, I’d never even heard of that magazine before.

I could not agree, more! Thanks for the comment!
Pamela @ Brooklyn Farm Girl says
August 28, 2013 at 5:02 pmDan, you need to get a deal from Hershey’s for these cookies. I am totally adding these to the must make list – thank you!
Dan from Platter Talk says
August 28, 2013 at 5:26 pmPamela,
Thanks for the comment, and I would love a deal with any chocolate company!!

August 28, 2013 at 2:51 pmIt’s been 100+ for a while in Dallas, so campfires are definitely out of the question, but I would love these indoor s’mores! Looks great!

Thanks for the comments, these truly are wonderful, even from the oven! Have a great rest of the week!!

Thank you for visiting and leaving a comment. I give these s’more cookies two thumbs up!!
Angela Gilmore says
August 28, 2013 at 1:16 pmThese are a great idea, and you really sound like you deserved it after the week you had! I wonder if you can make these with fluff instead of marshmallows, it’s pretty much the same concept right? Also those graham cracker cookies look good enough to eat on their own!
Dan from Platter Talk says
August 28, 2013 at 1:21 pmAngela,
I think everyone deserves one of these! Fluff should work fine, although because of its consistency and the hot cookies, I would probably portion it out a couple of minutes after the cookies come our of the oven. Thanks for stopping by and especially for taking the time to comment!!

Thank goodness for A/C and hot ovens to create a nice late summer treat without the heat after a rough day! Thanks for sharing! P.S. Thanks for adding me to your blog roll. I’m honored! xo
