S'more Thumbprint Cookies



1 c butter, softened
1/2 c packed brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup finely ground graham cracker crumbs (either pre-made or approx 16 cracker squares finely ground in a food processer)
1/8 tsp salt
1 1/4 cups miniature marshmallows
4 1.5 oz Hershey's milk chocolate bars, broken into 60 rectangles

Heat oven to 325.

In a large bowl, beat butter and brown sugar with electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla, beat until blended. Add flour, graham cracker crumbs and salt, beat on low speed about 1 minute or until a stiff dough forms.

Shape dough into heaping teaspoon size balls. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet at least 2 inches apart. With thumb, make indentation in center of each.

Bake 10-12 minutes or until cookies are firm and edges are just beginning to brown. Lightly press 2 marshmallows in the center of each cookie, bake 2-3 minutes longer. Top marshmallows on each cookie with a rectangle of chocolate, let stand 2-3 minutes. With a tip of a knife, spread the melting chocolate over marshmallows. Let stand until chocolate is set.

Serve with a glass of milk!

approx 5 doz cookies
