S’mores Cookies

Cookie
1 cup powdered sugar

1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
2 teaspoons vanilla

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup finely ground graham cracker crumbs
1/2 teaspoon salt

72 miniature marshmallows

Icing
1/4 cup milk
3 tablespoons unsweetened baking cocoa
1/4 cup butter
2 cups powdered sugar

For Cookies –
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, flour
and salt; set aside.
In a mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar on low speed for 10 seconds, then increase the
speed and beat until light and fluffy.  Stir in vanilla, then gradually add the flour mixture, while
beating.
Portion dough into 1 1/2 inch balls onto ungreased baking sheets.  Push dough flat with fingers.
Press 3 marshmallows onto the center.  Bake for 6 minutes.  Rotate the pans and bake for 6
minutes more.  Let cool on the baking sheets.

For icing – Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the milk, butter, and cocoa. Bring to a boil,
then lower hear and gradually stir in the powdered sugar until a spreading consistency is
achieved (it will thicken as it cools).  Spread or drizzle warm icing over the center of each cookie
to cover the marshmallows.  Let cool completely.  Store cookies between layers of waxed paper
in an airtight container.
