I have some of the sweetest memories attached to s’mores. My memories really bring me straight back to the sweetest of moments of my childhood both filled with love and s’mores. Sometimes when something as simple as a delicious peanut butter smores cookie can bring your heart to a place filled with the sweetest of moments than it is nothing short of magical.
Can I Use Jarred Marshmallow Fluff
If you don’t want to make homemade fluff you are more than welcome to buy a jar and use. I found it neat to make homemade, the flavor was so delicious.
What is The Chocolate Part in This Cookie
Instead of a classic chocolate bar I reached for a homemade chocolate ganache. It really elevated the flavor of these peanut butter cookies I think.
Tender peanut butter cookies, gooey marshmallow with the perfect rich chocolate. Each bite is finger licking good.
How To Store S’mores Cookies
You will want to store these cookies in an airtight container. Make sure the cookies fully cool before you store them or it can create condensation.
You can also store them in an airtight bag. They will last for around 5 days before they get pretty dry.
Can You Freeze Peanut Butter S’mores Cookies
You can freeze these cookies if you want to save some back. I don’t see why they wouldn’t work. I haven’t tried it cause they get gobbled up so fast once I make them.
Just store in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to three months. Thaw cookies on counter when you want one.
