I am a foodie turned full-time Recipe Developer. Food is the center of my world, and I believe it one of the most important things in bringing people together.
Nah these are insane. I had these in my freezer for the afternoon after recipe testing them and they were GONE by 8pm. I normally give a lot of my food away to neighbors but these s’mores cookie dippers were far too good – ALL MINE.
These are a really good summer treat to bring to a gathering, and also a really fun recipe to get kids involved in. There isn’t really any chopping or knife work that goes into this so it’s pretty kid-friendly.
THE COOKIE This is a combination of oats, softened dates, graham cracker, and a little cinnamon & salt. It makes a chewy, naturally sweet, and crunchy cookie that tastes like graham cracker but in a new consistency.
THE FLUFF A mixture of marshmallow fluff and a little bit of cream to make it a little more liquid-y. I microwaved this for 10 seconds to warm it up and soften it slightly. This is just to make it easier to dunk. You could omit the cream entirely and try microwaving the fluff alone, I didn’t try that but it could work!
THE CHOCOLATE Just a melted dark chocolate with a little chocolate oil to make it easier to drizzle. You could also choose to dunk these s’mores cookie dippers in chocolate too for a different look!
There are 2 different sessions of freezing this recipe which is annoying, I know. Freezing the dates and graham cracker cookie does help it hold its shape and gives it a more firm, chewy texture. Don’t get me wrong, if you skip the second freeze, they will still taste delicious. But I *do* recommend letting them freeze fully to enjoy them at their best <3
As always, let me know in the comments if you make this recipe.

S’mores Cookie Dippers

A date and graham cracker cookie stick dipped in marshmallow fluff and drizzled with dark chocolate gives the same flavors of a s'more in a different form.
12sheets of graham crackers total8 blitzed, 3 rough crushed later, 1 for crumble topping
1cupquick rolled oats
Pinchof salt
1container of marshmallow fluff
1tbspcream
2chocolate bars6oz total
1/2tbspof coconut oil
Instructions
In a small bowl, microwave pitted dates with 1/3 cut of milk for 1-2 minutes until dates are softened and warm.
In a food processor, blitz 8 sheets of graham crackers until they are a sand consistency. Use a spoon the roughly mash the warmed dates and then add to food processor with 1 cup quick rolled oats, 1 tsp cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Process until dough becomes mixed and sort of forms a ball. Add in 2 tbsp of milk and mix again.
Transfer to a large bowl and mix by hand to make sure everything is incorporated and then add 2-3 sheets roughly crushed graham crackers.
In a banana bread loaf lined with parchment paper, scoop dough and flatten doing your best to make sure it’s even. Place into the freezer for at least 2 hours.
In a double boiler, or microwave, melt 2 bars of chocolate and 1 tbsp coconut oil. Set aside.
Microwave (in short, small increments of 10 seconds to avoid burning) microwave marshmallow fluff and cream until it’s a liquidier consistency. Just something that would make it easy to dip.
Cut the date + graham cracker bars into bars and dip into marshmallow fluff and drizzle with dark chocolate.
Option to garnish with crushed graham cracker and flakey sea salt. Place dipped bars onto a sheet pan and place in the freezer for another hour. Or just eat it now (it'll be a softer texture but still taste delicious)
