Think S'mores are out of season? Nope!
I found a cookie recipe on Pinterest recently for S'mores Cookies, and after making them I daresay that they are as good as a S'more! (though I miss the ambience of cooking them over a fire down at the cottage.)
This was an interesting recipe, calling for both white and wheat flours, and rolled oats too. I had to dig out the food processor from our "appliance garage" in the kitchen, which is usually a little like taking your life into your hands. The oats are smashed up into bits in the food processor, until they resemble flour too. The dough is topped with a square of semi-sweet chocolate, then baked til golden. After that, you top the cookies with half a marshmallow and put them under the broiler for about a minute.
The end result is a cookie so fabulous, you want to eat them all. However, there are two lessons to be learned:
1. Cutting marshmallows in half is a lot easier when you use kitchen shears.
2. If you're going to put marshmallows under the broiler, WATCH THEM. Some of the cookie's marshmallow top looks extra-toasty, and there was a bit of sugary smoke when I took them out of the oven. For people that like their marshmallows burned instead of toasted, the end result is perfect.
