The ultimate campfire treat: toasted marshmallow goodness sandwiched between homemade caramel coconut Samoa girl scout cookies!
I sort of have that guilty feeling like I’m cheating a little bit. This recipe can hardly be called a recipe since I just posted the real, legitimate, easy peasy homemade Samoa cookie recipe just yesterday. But when inspiration strikes, one must create, and when creation this life-changing has occurred, sharing is essential.
If you follow me on Instagram (follow me!!!) then you probably saw my IG pic last week from our camping trip. The one with an ooey gooey s’more made with my all time favorite Samoa girl scout cookies. I’ve tried A LOT of s’more combinations in my day, some wonderful, some less than wonderful. . . ( peanut butter + oreo = WINNER! cinnamon banana = not so stellar. ) . . . but this Samoa idea, wow. Wowwwwwwwww. Insane. Out of this world good. I can’t. get. enough.
I owe my brother in law for the true inspiration for these homemade versions though. I was sitting there by the campfire with half my face covered in sticky marshmallow goo, when he said “So is it blog-worthy?” And I said YES! That was when I decided I was going to make homemade Samoa cookies and then I was going to turn them into s’mores. Absolute genius – one of my finest moments I must say. These are outrageously good, the cookies are even better than the originals with extra richness! Caramel + coconut + chocolate + shortbread + toasted marshmallows = pure bliss my friends, pure. ***bliss***
Samoa S’mores
Ingredients
- homemade Samoa cookies - (click HERE for my easy peasy recipe!)
- marshmallows
Instructions
- Toast marshmallows. This can be done by roasting them over an open fire, OR microwaving them on high for 8-10 seconds, OR roasting them over a grill or gas stove, OR broiling them on a baking sheet in the oven for about 1 minute until golden brown (watch closely as they will burn easily!).
- Place one Samoa cookie upside down. Place a toasted marshmallow on top of the upside down cookie. Top marshmallow with a second samoa cookie (right side up) and press down gently to squish the toasted marshmallow between the cookies. Enjoy!
How are these the next day? Want to make them for a bake sale but don’t know how they would be cold?
I’ve had them the day after and thought they were still delicious! I stored them in a air tight container overnight.
I’ve already made this three times this year!! Soooo good! Thanks for the recipe!
SO glad you like this recipe so much! Thanks, Becca!
Love this idea! You found a way to make s’mores even more amazing!!
Anyone willing to make these and sell some to me? Please contact me. I’m on the Gold Coast – would love to buy some but im certainly no chef, but they look so good! yum!
definitely craving smores right now, loving the idea of a samoa flavoured smore. looks and sounds delicious!
I have to keep looking at the pictures because I can’t believe these are for real. They look so amazingly, indulgently, insanely delicious! Thanks for sharing!
These are amazing Tiffany! They looks crazy good!
I haven’t had a s’more yet this summer, can you believe that??? These gooey pieces of heaven may be the perfect place to start!
This is such an awesome idea, looks yummy! Pinned.!
Omg homemade samoas are one amazing thing… but homemade samoas sandwiching marshmallows?! YUM.
I didn’t think you could top a homemade samoa cookie, but making s’mores out of them?! Sounds absolutely amazing! All we need is a campfire and some ghost stories.
You are not cheating at all! You are using the leftover cookies to make something incredible! I call that recycling! I can’t wait to try these as Samoas are my FAVORITE cookie of all time! I have spent lots of money on those boxes of heaven over the years!!!! Can’t wait to make them from scratch!
I want to face plant in those S’mores…..right….this….second.
