Giant S'mores Cookies

Brandon had seen an idea on Pinterest (it cracks me up that he likes to look around on Pinterest) to make s'mores inside of a chocolate chip cookie.  I wasn't so sure it would work and tried to talk him into making it more like cookie bars, but he insisted so I looked it up and found another blog that had an idea close to what he had in his mind.

We had already made some chocolate chip cookie dough earlier that day (I use the Ghiradelli semi-sweet chips since they're all natural, so we use the recipe on the bag for those), so there was plenty left.  Timothy thought it was the coolest thing ever, I'm not so sure the girls cared what was happening, but they did fuss and cry a lot when they saw the ingredients and found out they had to wait to eat a cookie till it was all baked and done.

So we started with a ball of cookie dough and flattened it out on the cookie sheet.  Next we added a smaller version of a s'more (like a quarter of a large graham cracker, 3 small squares of chocolate, and half a marshmellow)

Then we added another scoop of cookie dough on top and molded it all around the s'more

We put them in the oven and I think they baked for 15-20 minutes, they turned out quite large!

Everyone seemed to love them (as you can tell from the chocolate on the faces)!!
