S'Mores Sandwich Cookies

These tender, chewy sandwich cookies take the defining flavors of s’mores and turn them into a playful treat that is infinitely easier to eat than its namesake. In the place of crunchy, unyielding graham crackers are plush sugar cookies made with equal parts crushed graham crackers and flour. Squished between them are a toasted marshmallow crème and generous dab of unctuous bittersweet chocolate ganache. Each cookie captures the ideal balance of flavor and texture that actual s’mores rarely do, no campfire required.
