Cookie 3: S'mores Cookies

It is freezing outside! Which I love because that means snow is possible and I love the possibility of a snow day. When it is not snowing and it is just cold I am not so happy. I miss the summer. I miss campfires with s'mores. That is the inspiration for Cookie Three. 

The dough I used came from this recipe- Coco Thumprints . I did make some changes to make these delicious bites of summer.
