S’mores Cookies
I’ve had these cookies starred in my Google Reader for quite some time now. I knew I wanted to make them once I got the idea to do a week of smores recipes. These cookies taste just like smores and are so cute with the little chunks of Hershey bars and mini marshmallows poking out all over the place.
I’m not a huge fan of thin cookies, but these sure were tasty. And ooey and gooey just like smores you’d make at a campfire.

Ingredients:

3/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract

My favorite beer and chocolate have been paired together- Hooker brewery in Bloomfield CT makes Munson’s chocolate truffle stout. It’s fantastic!
