Recipe: S’Mores Cookies

Each year for Thanksgiving we end up with pumpkin pie – naturally – and usually one other dessert. I love pumpkin pie, but it’s not for everyone (apparently). My kids are hit and miss with pie. I know, that’s a confusing statement, because PIE but still, they don’t love every kind.  I usually try to make sure we have a fun dessert for the kids at our table too.

The summer may be gone, but not forgotten.  I had left over s’mores parts in the cupboard and decided a simple way to convert them into a Fall recipe would be in the form of a cookie. Enter the s’mores cookie.  All the part of a s’more, plus delicious cookie dough.  It’s hard to resist.
