Ingredients 

  • 1 + ¼ cup all purpose flour *see notes for substitutions
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla

S'mores variation mix-ins

  • ½ cup chocolate chips
  • ½ cup mini marshmallows
  • ½ cup crushed graham crackers

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
  • In a medium bowl, mix together flour, baking soda and salt
  • In a separate bowl, combine olive oil, brown sugar, egg and vanilla. Slowly add the flour mixture to the sugar mixture and mix until fully combined (i use a stand mixer, but a handheld mixer works just as good!)
  • Once the dough is formed, add in the chocolate chips (and cinnamon if using) and mix again
  • Roll dough into about 12 tablespoon sized balls and place on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet (do not press down yet)
  • Bake for 9-12 minutes or until tops begin to turn golden brown
  • Once done, remove from oven, and gently press down on the tops of the cookies to flattent them a little
