Patriotic S'mores Cookies

Store bought mini graham crackers dipped in chocolate and marshmallow candy melts are a deliciously easy way to make patriotic treats this Independence Day.

I have been on a total snack kick lately with all of the travel that I have been doing for work. I’m normally not one to snack very much throughout the day, but I definitely like keeping homemade treats in my bags when I travel to combat unexpected delays and avoid costly airport options. When I picked up the Star Grahams for the Campfire Trail Mix I immediately started brainstorming patriotic treats for the upcoming holiday. It’s no secret that I love anything s’mores flavored and thus these unbelievably easy Patriotic S’mores Cookies were born.

Can’t find the Stars Grahams? No problem, try the Goldfish Grahams or any other mini graham cracker. Use up any sprinkles you may have on hand, fireworks don’t have to be just red white and blue! Perfect for both kids and adults, bring these to your next picnic or curb the late night munchies while waiting for the fireworks to begin this weekend. These Patriotic S’mores Cookies are sure to be a sweet addition to any celebration.
