We are in the peak of gorgeous summer days here in San Diego! And nothing says summer in my book like S’mores cooked on a campfire around a big group of friends.
Unfortunately, big summer gatherings aren’t really happening these days (thanks COVID), so I wanted to bring that same fun, summer spirit to an easy cookie recipe you can whip up in the comfort and safety of your own home. Genius idea: do a virtual bake sesh with your besties and enjoy these cookies together from afar!!
Okay, now about these Campfire Cookies. These grain free cookies are incredibly easy to make and seriously indulgent deliciousness. In other words, you need them NOW!
Let’s talk about these cookies…
What’s all they hype about?? We take a grain free, paleo cookie base that’s ready in 3 minutes. Next, we stir in some chopped Jojo’s Chocolate Bark Peanut Butter Delight chocolate bars and a handful of mini marshmallows. Then, you scoop these beauties onto a lined baking sheet. Lastly, top with more chocolate and marshmallows, bake and DEVOUR.
Plus, my Campfire Cookies are totally grain free, with dairy free options! These cookies are made with less sugar and nutrient-dense ingredients, but still taste crazy indulgent!
Some tips: I love using an almond flour / coconut flour mix in my grain free cookies. It gives a perfect balance of fluff, chew, and holds together. I think you could swap the almond flour for a gluten free flour blend, but you may need to add a touch less flour so they don’t dry out.
