Chocolate Chip Graham Cracker Cookies

Kevin is definitely better at the internet than I am. He finds all kinds of articles and videos on Facebook or to post to Facebook and will tag the appropriate people if necessary. Like a food page's post of a recipe for chocolate chip cookies with graham cracker cookies that he tagged me in the comment section, asking me to try it. I asked him and he said for his birthday. So I did! (Coincidentally, I had just pinned the same recipe a few hours earlier, but he didn't need to know that nor would he have cared.)

Chocolate Chip Graham Cracker Cookies (source)

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, room temperature
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 1 egg
• 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 3/4 cup all purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup chocolate chips

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until creamy
3. Beat in the vanilla and egg until well combined.
4. In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the butter mixture until just combined.
5. Stir in the chocolate chips.
6. Using a medium cookie scoop, drop balls of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 7 minutes. Cookies will look slightly underdone, but should set up nicely as they cool.

Kevin, his girlfriend Helen, and I each tried one. They were delicious (although personally I couldn't taste the graham crackers. Maybe I was trying too hard to find the taste?)
