Chewy S'mores Brownie Cookies

 A campfire favorite, S'mores, these cookie version are a brownie cookie or brookies with mini marshmallows, coarsely ground graham crackers and chocolate chunks.

Growing up, I did a little camping with Girl Scouts and that is when I was introduced to s'mores. I have gone camping in a while but I have made bonfires just to make s'mores.

That is where my strange addiction started, a good strange I feel there could be worse, I would always search anything that has to deal with s'mores.  It might the chocolate and graham crackers or the smoky marshmallows.

These cookies might be perfect because they have so much chocolate, graham cracker and toasty marshmallows, that comes from baking in the oven no bonfire needed.

I decided to create this post because on August 10th, it's National S'mores Day. So I had to make this recipes that has everything in a s'mores.

What is your favorite part of a S'mores? Is is the melted chocolate, toasted marshmallow or graham cracker or all three?
