Ingredients
  

Base Ingredients
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark) Use good-quality chocolate chips for a richer flavor.
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter (creamy) If it separates, stir well to recombine before using.
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup For a less sweet cookie, adjust the amount.
Added Ingredients
  • 1 cup rolled oats (old-fashioned)
  • 1/2 cup crushed graham crackers Add more for a firmer cookie.
  • 1/4 cup mini marshmallows (optional) Fold gently to keep them pillowy.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips, peanut butter, and honey (or maple syrup); microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring until smooth and glossy.
  2. Stir in oats and crushed graham crackers until fully coated in chocolatey goodness.
  3. Gently fold in mini marshmallows so they stay soft and fluffy.
Shaping
  1. Spoon mixture onto parchment paper and lightly flatten into cookie shapes.
Chilling
  1. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes until firm, then enjoy.

Notes

Serve cookies chilled or at room temperature. Pair with vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of warm salted caramel. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 2 months.
