GIANT S'MORES STUFFED CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

  • 4

Ingredients

  • 2 cups plus 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 12 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled until warm
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg plus 1 egg yolk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 8 graham cracker squares, broken into halves
  • 4 marshmallows, snipped into half lengthwise
  • 1 full-sized Hershey's bar, divided between each of the cookies

Preparation

Step 1

To make the cookie dough---Whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl; set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixed fitted with the paddle attachment, or by hand, mix butter and sugars until thoroughly combined. Beat in the egg, yolk, and vanilla until combined. Add dry ingredients and beat at low-speed just until combined--the batter should look a little lumpy. Stir in the chocolate chips.

Preheat oven to 325° F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

To assemble and bake: Lay half of the graham crackers out on the baking sheets--two crackers per sheet. Top each cracker with 3-4 pieces of the chocolate, then top the chocolate with two marshmallow halves, laying them side by side. Lay the remaining graham crackers on top of the assembled s'mores. Sandwich the s'mores between two large spoonfuls of cookie dough and using the remaining dough to wrap around each of the s'mores; the result should resemble a small cookie brick.

Space the cookies at least 4 inches apart on the two baking sheets. Bake for 20-24 minutes or until the tops and edges are lightly browned and the edges just lift off of the pan with a spatula. (While baking, the s'mores will press down under the weight of the cookie dough and will sink further while cooling. Don't worry if the cookies don't end up completely covering the s'mores, it only adds to the charm here). Transfer the baking sheets to wire racks and cool the cookies on the sheets for at least 5 minutes. Transfer the cookies to the wire racks and cool for another 5-10 minutes before serving.

Serve warm or at room temperature.
