Ok, I know I’m late to the game on this one, National S’mores Day was WEEKS ago.

But good news friends! It doesn’t need to be a holiday to enjoy this favorite cookie combination.

Also it doesn’t actually need to be a cookie at all. Why make one smore cookie when you can have a whole S’MORES COOKIE CAKE!!

One giant graham cracker infused sugar cookie, topped with silky smooth chocolate ganache, and then loaded with marshmallows just waiting to be torched up (my favorite part). If you don’t have a torch you should totally invest in one. Relax, I don’t mean a massive blow torch, get this one from Sur la Table. Its mini and its cute, and it makes you feel and seem like a total rockstar. I live in Florida where the majority of our appliances are electric which means its impossible to roast marshmallows over the stove- I tried. I have also tried broiling marshmallows in the oven which resulted in me almost burning down our house. So I think that this $50 torch is 100% worth it. They also offer a cheaper one for half the price but I can’t recommend it because I have had this other one for years and it has served me well!

P.S I am in no way of getting paid to write that, hello like 6 people read this blog, I just really really like my mini torch and any excuse to use it.

Anyways back to this cake. So National S’mores day came and went but you can relive it through making this giant smore’s cookie cake, and since its technically just one cookie, you have permission to eat the whole thing yourself and I won’t judge you. I mean just look at this thing!

Ingredients

  • For the cookie:
  • 1 cup softened butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 3.5 flour
  • 1 cup finely ground graham cracker crumbs
  • For the Ganache:
  • 1 10 oz bag chocolate chips
  • 8 oz heavy cream
  • For the topping:
  • 1 8 oz bag regular sized marshmallows
  • 1 8 oz bag mini sized marshmallows

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
  • In the bowl of a kitchenaid mixer, cream together butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
  • Add in one egg at a time and incorporate.
  • Add in vanilla.
  • Add in dry ingredients and mix until evenly combined.
  • Move the cookie dough to your work surface.
  • Spray a 14 inch cake pan with baking spray or line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • Evenly press the cookie dough into the cake pan or shape the dough into a 14" disk on the cookie sheet.
  • Chill for 10 minutes.
  • Bake 15-18 minutes, remove from oven and let cool 10 minutes
  • Invert onto a cooling rack and let completely cool.
  • For the Ganache:
  • Place the chocolate chips in a heat proof bowl and set aside.
  • In a small pot, heat the cream until bubbles start to form on the sides. Do not bring to a boil or the milk will curdle.
  • Pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips and let sit for 2 minutes.
  • Stir the ganache with a spatula until evenly mixed and smooth.
  • Place the ganache in the refrigerator to come to the desired consistency of spreadable but not runny, about 10-15 minutes.
  • When the ganache is ready, spread it evenly over the cookie cake leaving a 1/2 inch border around.
  • Place marshmallows all over the ganache. Using a blow torch, toast the marshmallows until they are black and crispy. Alternatively you can preheat your oven to broil and place the cookie cake on the lowest oven rack to toast the marshmallows. Should you choose to do this, you should do it very carefully as the marshmallows burn very fast, usually in less than 30 seconds! DO NOT walk away!
  • After toasting the marshmallows, sprinkle with leftover graham cracker crumbs and drizzle with leftover ganache, slice and enjoy!

Notes

***If you choose to toast your marshmallows under the broiler make sure you keep a close eye on them!

I love when you share my recipes!!

#ALDILove
Prep time: 1 hr 45 mins
Cook time: 1 min
Yield: 40 donut fries
2 pack Baker’s Corner Active Dry Yeast
1 1/2 cup warm water
1/3 cup Sugar
2 Simply Nature Grade A Organic Cage Free Brown Eggs
2 tbsp Stonemill Pure Vanilla Extract
1/3 cup Carlini Pure Vegetable Oil
5-6 cups Baker’s Corner All Purpose Flour
1 tsp Kosher salt
½ cup Baker’s Corner Powdered Sugar
For Dipping:
1 cup Baker’s Corner Dark or Milk Chocolate Morsels
Simply Nature Organic Raspberry Preserves
Method:
•Mix the yeast with water in a mixer bowl and let stand for 10 mins until frothy. Add the
sugar, eggs, vanilla, and oil to the bowl and mix until well combined.
•Start adding only 5 cups of flour and salt, and knead/mix on medium speed in a stand mixer
fitted with the dough attachment for 5 minutes until a soft, non-sticky dough forms. If the
dough seems sticky, add ¼ cup flour to the dough until it no longer sticks to the bowl when
mixing.
•Let the dough rest in the bowl for an hour to double in size. 
•Punch down the dough and remove it from the bowl onto a lightly floured surface. Using a
lightly floured rolling pin, roll it out into a rectangle. About 18”x 15” and 1/2 of an inch in
thickness. 
•Using a pizza cutter, cut in half vertically. Then slice thin strips horizontally. You want them
thin as they will puff up while frying.
•Let the fries rest for another 15 mins. 
•Meanwhile, using a deep fryer or a large pot, heat your oil to 350 degrees F. Fry the donut
fries 30 seconds per side, then drain on a paper towel.
•Dust the donut fries with powdered sugar and set aside.
•Microwave 1 cup of dark or milk chocolate for 30 seconds at a time until melted. Scoop
jelly into another bowl. Dip the fries in the chocolate or jelly!
