Soft, chewy, sweet, and gooey- these S’mores inspired Chocolate Chip Cookies are pretty damn irresistible and for good reason. They boast of nutty browned butter, marshmallows, bits of graham crackers, and lots of dark chocolate sprinkled throughout.

For many, this year has felt like one long bad dream, and yet in the blink of an eye, we have neared the end of August and now prepare to welcome a whole new season and hopefully some semblance of stability and order back into our lives. I touched on this lightly in my previous post, but while I was discussing my relief that there are only four months left to the year, my mother was quick to remind me never to wish time away- “we never know what next year holds”.

Her words gave pause for reflection. Lately, I’ve felt restless with my current ‘routine’ and though many of us joke about the 2020 time loop, there is a sense of comfort if you will, in having stability in a time as uncertain as these. It’s important to fall into a rhythm, I’ve come to learn as I’ve gotten older. Often in the rapid-paced world we live in, we’re tricked into feeling that having a routine is a sign of complacency- routines hold us back and leave us feeling like we’re stuck in quicksand. Yet, having a sense of assurance in what you do and how you live your life is what everyone spends their lives trying to attain.

So, here you are, right now in this moment, forced to pause. Let’s embrace the one thing we are certain we will not get back- time.

Here at LTG we’ve been shifting our focus on August-to-autumn recipes and to kick off the series we have one of my favorites- S’mores Chocolate Chip Cookies. An ode to the waning days of the season and a perfect treat to enjoy on the lingering evenings of the summer.

I’m kicking things up a little swapping the traditional softened butter with melted brown butter for added richness and subtle nutty flavor. Please try to refrain from eating the dough, I know it’s going to be a struggle but it will be worth it in the end.
