Ingredients
 

  • ½ cup (113.5 g) salted butter melted
  • ½ cup (110 g) brown sugar
  • ¼ cup (50 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla
  • ½ teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) peppermint extract can sub with vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) baking soda
  • ½ tsp (0.5 teaspoon) salt
  • 1⅓ cups (186 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup (180 g) semi sweet chocolate chips
  • ¼ cup (56.5 g) crushed candy cane pieces
  • 9 graham cracker squares
  • 9 large marshmallows
  • 18 hershey bar squares
  • flaked sea salt for sprinkling

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Whisk or mix together melted butter and both sugars until combined. Add in the egg, vanilla and peppermint extract and whisk.
  • Slowly mix in baking soda, salt and flour, being careful not to over mix. I usually stop when I still have some flour remnants around the bowl.
  • Fold in chocolate chips and crushed candy cane pieces.
  • Place 4-5 graham crackers on each cookie sheet and top each one with a chocolate square and then a marhsmallow.
  • Scoop ¼ cup of cookie dough and shape the dough around the marshmallow and onto the graham cracker.
  • Bake the cookies for 12-14 minutes. You're looking for a nice golden brown outside. The cookies will look a little puffed in the middle from the marshmallow, but once they cool they will collapse a bit. As soon as they come out of the oven stick a single hershey square on top and sprinkle with flaked salt. Allow to cool for at least 20 minutes before handling.

Notes

I tried these cookies with and without the hershey bars  We loved them both ways.
These are also great using chocolate graham crackers.
I have given both cups and grams as measurements. Grams will be more precise, especially when measuring flour. If you don't have a kitchen scale, no problem! Just lightly spoon flour into your measuring cup to insure its not packed in there. Light and fluffy is the key.
