What are S’mores?

A s’mores is traditionally a campfire snack or dessert with toasted marshmallows and a layer of chocolate placed between two pieces of graham cracker.

Who originally came up with this delicious treat though? Well, it’s not exactly clear but Wikipedia has some great theories.

S’more is a contraction of the phrase “some more”. S’mores appeared in a cookbook in the early 1920s, where it was called a “Graham Cracker Sandwich”. The text indicates that the treat was already popular with both Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts. In 1927, a recipe for “Some More” was published in Tramping and Trailing with the Girl Scouts.

The contracted term “s’mores” appears in conjunction with the recipe in a 1938 publication aimed at summer camps. A 1956 recipe uses the name “S’Mores”, and lists the ingredients as “a sandwich of two graham crackers, toasted marshmallow and ​¹⁄₂ chocolate bar”. A 1957 Betty Crocker cookbook contains a similar recipe under the name of “s’mores”.

HOW TO MAKE S’MORES COOKIES

1. Whisk together the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.

2. Cream the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar in a stand mixer until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes). Scrape the sides of the bowl to make sure all ingredients are blended.

2. Add in the eggs and vanilla and beat until combined.

3. Add in flour, graham cracker, baking soda, and salt mixture. Mix until all combined.

4. Scoop out dough balls of about 1 TBSP of dough and place on a plate lined with wax paper or parchment paper. Chill for 1 hour. If you are in a hurry, pop the dough balls in the freezer for 30 minutes.

5. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

6. When dough is properly chilled, bake at 350 degrees for 8-9 minutes.

7. Remove the cookies from the oven and place 3-5 mini marshmallows on the top of each cookie. Return cookies to oven for additional 2-3 minutes.

8. Remove cookies from oven and cool cookies on cookie sheet for 10 minutes before removing to cooling rack. NOTE: I used my new 360 Cookware Cookie Sheet and I was AMAZED at how evenly my cookies cooked. You HAVE to check out these cookie sheets. They are MAGIC.
