S'mores Cookie Bars
S'mores Cookie Bars
I absolutely love s'mores but hate the mess and don't actually like the old fashioned ones you make over a campfire. I feel the reality of that treat is more mess than yumm. Plus who really can relax with family and friends when kids are constantly setting the marshmallows on fire for fun (I may be guilty of this myself LOL) But give me a s'mores bar, cookie, ice cream or pastry and I'm all for it. All the flavor without the mess. So I took my favorite cookie recipe and played with it until it worked perfectly as a base for a s'mores. You have got to give this one a try this summer! ..and incase you didn't notice I gave you guys this one just in time for 4th of July!
