Two-Minute Tuesday #9: Cookie Dough S'mores

Welcome to Two-Minute Tuesday, where I share quick tips, tidbits, and ideas!

So it has officially been summer now for a few days! I love summer! Playing outside, going to the pool, having cookouts--it's all wonderful.

Since moving back home to Kansas three weeks ago, we have been loving to build a fire in the fire pit and sit outside in the evenings. You can actually see the stars, and lately the lightning bugs have been out! I love it; I was definitely not made for big city life.

The other day as we were getting stuff to make s'mores, we walked past the refrigerated cookie dough. My husband asked, "Hey, how do you think it would work if we wrapped a marshmallow in cookie dough and then roasted it?"

Bless that man. His brilliant ideas like Bratwurst Pizza, Beer Cheesecake, and German Chocolate Tres Leches have been the inspiration for some delicious recipes!

Needless to say, we bought the cookie dough and gave it a try.

*Note: If you're concerned that the cookie dough might not get cooked all the way through, use a recipe for eggless cookie dough.*

Break off a couple squares of cookie dough and smash them flat.

Put a marshmallow in the center.

Smoosh the cookie dough around the marshmallow.

Cookiemallow!

Place the cookiemallow on your skewer.

And roast it over the fire!

I will warn you it has a tendency to get melty pretty quick. Rotate it to help it cook evenly.

Slide the cookiemallow off the skewer and onto a graham cracker with a piece of chocolate.

    1. I agree! There's just something about cooking food outside that makes it taste better, and when it's something new and fun like this, it's a double win!

    1. They are rich! We each only ate one and then baked the rest of the cookie dough for later.
