Maya's Amazing S'mores Cookie Bars
For my day to cook something in The Write to Cook, I chose to bake S’mores Cookie Bars. I love eating sweet foods and enjoy eating s’mores. I found this recipe on Pinterest and thought it would be cool to try it out. I mean, who doesn’t like the combination of marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crackers?! I had never made anything like it before, so it was fun to try it for the first time. When I made it at home, I didn’t think they would turn out to look like the picture, but surprisingly, they turned out very good! There were a few things I could have improved on, so I kept that in mind for when I made it on my day. When my turn arrived, I was ready. The recipe called for graham cracker crumbs, but we only found whole graham crackers in the store, so we had to improvise and use a food processor to mash them up. In the end though, all turned out great and delicious!

Sometimes we have to be creative at the Write to Cook!
