S’mores Cookie Bars


Well, I wouldn’t be able to choose between a S’more and a Chocolate Chip Cookie. Honestly. So, in the event I’m ever cruelly and inhumanely forced to choose between the two, I’ve come up with a contingency plan: these S’mores Cookie Bars!



The inspiration for this recipe actually came from the S’mores bars that my family is obsessed with at a nearby lunch place we frequent. They have the best chicken salad and sweet potato fries and DESSERTS.
