We&#8217;ll let him take it from here:<\/p>\n<p><em>From Jay: I make this recipe for my holiday cookie parties, but always make some more for my husband Tom because it makes him smile every time. Since I am baking challenged, these are no bake cookies. These s&#8217;mores cookie dough bites are filled with rich chunks of chocolate, sweet brown sugar and fluffy marshmallow love. The best part is they are totally make ahead: I make them 4 days in advance and leave in my fridge until cookie time. My secret ingredient is almond flour. Besides being gluten free (so everyone can eat them), it also adds a fun nutty taste. Cheers to cookies that celebrate you!<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h1>S&#8217;mores Cookie Dough Bites<\/h1>\n<h3>What You&#8217;ll Need<\/h3>\n<p>2 sticks (8 oz) butter, at room temperature<br \/>\n1 cup almond flour<br \/>\n1 1\/2 cups brown sugar<br \/>\n2 teaspoons vanilla extract<br \/>\n1 teaspoon salt<br \/>\n2 tablespoons heavy cream<br \/>\n1\/2 cup milk chocolate chips<br \/>\n1\/2 cup mini marshmallows<br \/>\n2 graham crackers, broken into chunks (regular or gluten free)<\/p>\n<h3>What to do:<\/h3>\n<p>Mix together the butter, almond flour, brown sugar, vanilla, salt, and cream until completely combined and a firm dough forms.<\/p>\n<p>Stir in the chocolate chips, marshmallows, and graham crackers and gently mix everything together.<\/p>\n<p>Divide and shape dough into small balls.
