Marshmallow S’Mores Cookies

This post is sponsored in conjunction with #SpringSweetsWeek. I received product samples from sponsor companies to help in the creation of the #SpringSweetsWeek recipes. All opinions are mine alone.
My recipe of the day is with Spring Sweets Week and is for an Easter themed marshmallow s’mores cookies, made with Peeps marshmallows.
The cookies themselves are graham cracker based and include both mini chocolate chips and tiny dried marshmallows. Those are frosted and decorated with adorable Peeps chicks and bunnies to make the cutest Easter cookies ever. I love all the beautiful colors!
These are perfect for kids. And Easter is one of the holidays where finding fun foods for the kids is of special importance, because the memories made will last a lifetime.
And I think that with Easter baskets being usually full of candies, having something with cookies can be a welcome break from all that. Plus, most kids will enjoy cookies than other desserts more suited to adults, like pie.
And never fear if you don’t get a chance to make these at Easter-
I have been enjoying seeing Peeps show up all year round at the various holidays, so these can easily be changed up with a different seasonal package.

I am very pleased to have Peeps as the sponsor of today’s post, having provided ingredients to make these delicious Easter inspired S’Mores cookies.
