S’mores Blossom Cookies
INGREDIENTS:
1 1/4 cups (6 1/4 ounces) all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup (3 1/2 ounces) sugar
8 whole graham crackers, crushed into fine crumbs (1 cup)
1 large egg, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
12 large marshmallows, halved crosswise
24 Hershey's Chocolate Kisses, unwrapped
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in bowl.
2. Using stand mixer fitted with paddle, beat butter, sugar, and 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add egg and vanilla and beat until incorporated. Reduce speed to low and slowly add flour mixture until just combined.
3. Place remaining 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs in shallow dish. Working with 1 tablespoon dough at a time, roll into 1 1/4-inch balls. Toss dough balls in graham cracker crumbs to coat. Space them evenly on prepared sheets, 12 per sheet. Bake, 1 sheet at a time, until just set and beginning to crack on sides, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cookies cool on sheets for 5 minutes.
4. Adjust oven rack 10 inches from broiler element and heat broiler. Place 1 marshmallow half, cut side down, in center of each cookie. Broil cookies, 1 sheet at a time, until marshmallows are deep golden brown, 30 to 45 seconds, rotating halfway through for even browning, if needed. Transfer sheet to wire rack and immediately place 1 Hershey’s Kiss in center of each marshmallow, pressing down gently. Repeat with remaining cookies, marshmallows, and Kisses. Let cookies cool completely before serving, about 1 hour.

SESAME HONEY CHICKEN
Ingredients:
Chicken
- 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into small cubes
- 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/4 cups buttermilk
- 2/3 cup peanut or vegetable oil, for frying
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- kosher salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
Sauce
- 2/3 cup honey
- 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons sesame seeds
- 1 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Directions:
- For the sauce: in a small bowl or glass, combine water and cornstarch to make a slurry and stir until dissolved. Set slurry aside.
- Place honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, sesame oil and red pepper flakes in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, and bring to a boil.
- Slowly stir in cornstarch slurry and reduce heat to a simmer. Mix until cornstarch has cooked out and sauce has thickened, 5-10 minutes, and set aside.
- In a large, shallow dish, mix together flour, cumin, chili powder, salt and powder.
- Heat oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
- Set up a bowl with the buttermilk and place next to your workstation.
- Piece by piece, dredge chicken cubes in flour, coat fully in buttermilk, drip off excess, and dredge again in flour and spice mixture, pressing firmly to adhere.
- When oil is hot enough (when splashing some water into it causes it to sizzle, but it’s not smoking or burning) add chicken cubes and cook for 4-5 minutes, flipping in the middle, or until chicken is an even golden brown and crispy.
- Use a slotted spoon to transfer chicken to a paper towel-lined plate.
- Move all chicken pieces to a large bowl and pour honey sauce over the top. Toss to coat thoroughly and add sesame seeds.
- Toss again and serve immediately over rice or noodles.
