Ingredients

For the cookies:

  • 15 graham crackers crushed
  • 1 ⅔ cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • cup brown sugar
  • 11 tbs butter softened
  • 11 tbs milk

For the filling:

  • 1.5 jars marshmallow cream 11 oz

For the chocolate coating:

  • 1 bag dark chocolate chips 20 oz
  • 3 tbs coconut oil

Instructions

To make the graham cracker cookies

  • Preheat oven to 325°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
  • Crush the graham crackers until they are grounded fine - use a food processor or just stick them all in a gallon Ziploc bag and crush them.
  • Mix together the crushed graham crackers, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and brown sugar in a large bowl.
  • Add in the butter and milk stirring until combined.
  • Roll out the dough into a thin layer about ⅛ of an inch thick.
  • Using a circular cookie cutter or a cup cut out circles from the dough and carefully transfer them to the parchment lined baking sheet. I like to use a spatula to move them and this helps the circles to stay circles.
  • Bake for 10 minutes. They will start to smell like delicious graham cracker cookies by this time!
  • Remove from the oven and let cool completely! Bake up the rest of the cookies.
  • Once the cookies are cooled, put approximately ¼ cup of marshmallow fluff onto ½ of the baked cookies and refrigerate them. This allows the marshmallow fluff to set up. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.
  • After refrigerating, top each mound of marshmallow fluff with another cookie, making a sandwich.
  • Line another cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • Dip the entire cookie sandwich in the chocolate coating, using a spoon to spoon chocolate over the entire thing. Then place the cookie on the parchment lined baking sheet.
  • Refrigerate the chocolate covered cookies to help the chocolate set up. Then cut away any chocolate that pooled around the cookies.
  • Enjoy!

To make the chocolate coating

  • In a microwave safe bowl add the chocolate chips and coconut oil.
  • Heat in the microwave for 30 seconds, stir and then repeat until melted. This will take about 2 minutes in total. Around the 1 ½ minute mark I start to check the chocolate every 10 seconds.
