Ingredients For Patriotic Cookies

• Fudge Stripe Cookies: These cookies are the "bread" of our cookie sandwich. They combine a crunchy texture with a rich, chocolatey flavor.
• Marshmallow Fluff or Creme: Provides the gooey center we all love in traditional s'mores.
• Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips: Adds extra chocolatey goodness without being too sweet.
• Vegetable Oil: Helps the chocolate chips melt smoothly.
• Sprinkles: These are optional, but they add a festive touch to the cookies.

How to Make July 4th Cookies

To make these sweet cookie sandwiches, start by spreading marshmallow fluff between two Fudge Stripe cookies and gently press them together.

In a small microwave safe bowl, combine a little vegetable oil with the semi sweet chocolate chips and melt in 30-second increments, stirring each time, until the mixture is smooth.

Dip each cookie sandwich into the melted chocolate about halfway,

Then cover with colorful sprinkles for a festive touch. Place the completed sandwiches on waxed paper, parchment paper or a wire rack so the chocolate can harden.

Tips for Making Red, White and Blue Cookies

Tip 1: Use a microwave-safe bowl and melt the chocolate in short intervals, stirring in between to prevent burning.

Tip 2: If you place the finished cookies on wax paper or parchment paper to set, it makes cleanup easy.

Tip 3: This recipe can be customized for any holiday or occasion. Simply switch out the sprinkles' color: red and green for Christmas, pastel for Easter.

What Kinds Of Cookies Are Good For Cookie Sandwiches?

When it comes to making cookie sandwiches, you want cookies that are sturdy yet tasty. If you don't have fudge stripe cookies on hand, opt for classic cookies like chocolate chip, oatmeal, snickerdoodle, or even sugar cookies.

How Do I Store 4th Of July Cookies?

When it comes to storing your delicious s'mores cookiewiches, the key is to keep them in an airtight container at room temperature. Stored this way, they will maintain their freshness for approximately 2 to 3 days.

Since these cookies are so irresistible, I don't see them lasting long enough for leftovers!

Can I Make S'mores Cookies Ahead Of Time?

Absolutely, you can make these ahead of time! These treats are pretty resilient and store well, which makes them perfect if you are making them ahead for a party.

Simply prepare the cookies as directed and let them set. Then, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for a day or two.
