S'mores Cookies

S'mores Cookies (Adapted from Everyday Food)

1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole-wheat flour
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
16 tablespoons (1 cup or 2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 large egg
8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, cut into 28 squares
14 large marshmallows, halved horizontally

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Place oats into a food processor and pulse until finely ground. Add flours, cinnamon, salt and baking soda, pulsing to combine.

In a large mixing bowl, beat together butter and sugar until smooth and creamy. Beat in egg until thoroughly mixed. Add dry ingredients and stir until combined.

Using a tablespoon cookie scoop, drop dough about 1 1/2" apart onto parchment-lined baking sheets. Top each piece of dough with a chocolate square. Place into the oven and bake, rotating pans halfway through, until the cookies are lightly golden, about 11 to 13 minutes.

Remove baking sheets from the oven - preheat broiler. Top each cookie with a halved marshmallow. Place one sheet under the broiler just until the marshmallows have lightly browned, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Repeat with remaining sheet of cookies. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Makes about 28 cookies.

  1. I have a thing for marshmallow topped cookies. Did you smoosh the marshmallow down before or after broiling?

  3. BasicallyBaked - the marshmallows flatten on their own as they cool. They puff up briefly from the heat of the oven, then settle down.

    Kim - Good to hear! I hope you give them a try!
