S’Mores Cookie Cups

S'Mores-Cookie-Cups-3

Friends! Hello! I feel like it’s been a while since I’ve been over here, and I’m so glad I’m back!

I’ve been staying really busy in NYC, with so many visitors and adventures. I spent a weekend in The Hamptons at the end of June, G came to visit for a long weekend over the 4th of July, my friend Alex was here in the city last weekend, and my parents come on Thursday! I absolutely love being surrounded by loved ones, and in such a big city, familiar faces are always welcome :)

Onto this week’s recipe… S’Mores Cookie Cups! I love anything chocolately, and in summer, not much is more perfect than a roasty toasty s’more. What I don’t like are sticky fingers and a mess, so if you aren’t outside, s’mores can be really tricky!! Because of this, I decided to whip up S’Mores Cookie Cups – s’mores cookies baked in a cupcake tin {with liners}. It was a completely new concoction for me, but let me tell you, they were SO worth it! They stayed m-o-i-s-t {does anyone else hate that word?} and the texture was consistent throughout, sometimes hard to achieve when baking in a cupcake tin. I’m so glad they turned out, because I have so many wonderful memories of sitting around a fire all snuggled up in PJs roasting marshmallows to perfection. But, a perfect fire and the ability to spend a whole day in the country just isn’t happening for me this summer, so these will have to suffice :)
