Happy NFL Opening night

For opening night in the NFL tomorrow, I present smores cookies. They are a graham cracker cookie, topped with a fluff frosting and melted hershey kisses. These cookies spread out more than I wanted because I didn’t have time to chill them. The graham cracker cookie is really a chocolate chip cookie without the chips. I also took out a little flour and added crushed graham crackers. I used a range for the flour because I think adding a little more could prevent the spreading.

Remember to scoop your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount. Pouring the flour directly from the bag packs it in. It’s too much flour, and you get a dry cookie. Also preheat the oven to 350 degrees for 20 minutes before baking so it cycles to the right temp.

  • Cookies ingredients
  • 3/4 cup butter, cold, and shredded or cubed
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 3/4 -2 cups flour (
  • 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 tbs cornstarch
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Directions – in a bowl, cream butter, brown sugar and sugar. Add egg and vanilla. Blend in rest in ingredients. Scoop out 2 tbs dough and form tall mounds. Chill a few hours. Preheat oven to 350 degrees for 20 minutes vefore baking. Line a cookie sheet with nonstick baking liners. Stagger cookies on sheet. Bake 12 to 14 minutes. They will seem a little underbaked on top, but they will be fine. Cool completely.

  • Frosting ingredients
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 cup marshmallow fluff
  • 2-3 cups powdered sugar
  • Milk (enough to get the consistency you want)

Frost cookies and store in covered container.

Now to figure out what I make for the Bills opener Monday!
