- 1/2 Cup Unsalted Brown Butter
- 1/2 Cup + 2 Tbsp Packed Brown Sugar
- 2 Tbsp Granulated Sugar
- 1 Tbsp Lemon Zest
- 1 Large Egg (Room Temp)
- 1 Tsp Vanilla
- 2 2/3 Cups of All Purpose Flour(Spoon & Leveled)
- 1 Tsp Baking Soda
- 1/2 Tsp Salt
- 1/3 Cup White Chocolate Chips
- 1/4 Cup Crushed Graham Crackers
- More Crushed Graham Crackers to garnish
- 6 White Chocolate Ghirardelli Squares
- 6 Marshmallows
Instructions
This makes 6 Cookies but can double ingredients perfectly to make 12.
- Begin by making the brown butter, cut butter into cubes. In a heavy saucepan heat butter over Medium heat to begin the browning process. Stir constantly until the butter begins to turn into a golden brown color. It will be foamy and that is ok. Once the butter has reached that beautiful golden brown color remove from the heat and place it on a heat safe bowl to cool.
- Once your brown butter has cooled Preheat oven to 350F and in a large bowl combine your brown butter and sugars and whisk until combined.
- Add eggs, vanilla and lemon zest whisk until combined.
- Add your sifted dry ingredients into the wet mixture and fold until just combined. Do not over mix.
- Add graham chunks and white chocolate chips and gently fold until combined. Do not over mix.
- This dough cannot be refrigerated, if left in the fridge for too long the dough will harden and be ruined.
- Drop the dough balls by 1/3 cup or use a regular size ice cream scoop. Flatten the cookie dough with the palm of your hand right on the parchment paper and place a marshmallow in the center of the flattened cookie dough.
- Enclose the cookie dough over marshmallow leaving the very top ONLY exposed.
- Bake 6 at a time.
- Bake for 10 minutes or until golden brown on the bottom.
- Once cookies are ready you can fix the shape with a large round cookie cutter or a big measuring cup.(Videos on my insta for reference)
- Once the cookies have cooled a bit add the ghirardelli square on top and garnish with graham crumbs.
- Allow the cookies to cool mostly completely.
- Enjoy!
TIPS
- Cookies will look a little undone once taken out they will finish baking in the baking sheet out of the oven. Allow them to cool completely to set.
- Make sure your brown butter is cooled before you begin to make the cookie dough.
- Cookies can be stored in the refrigerator and take out desired amount 1-2 hours before enjoying!
