Presentation & Serving

I’m super excited to share the best ways to make these S’mores Heart Cookies look awesome and taste even better! ✨

Arrange the cookies neatly on a colorful plate or tray. It adds a lively touch to your dessert table.

I like to garnish with some crushed graham crackers around the edges for an extra s’mores vibe.

Equipment:

• Colorful plate or tray
• Small decorative bowls

Serving Ideas:

• Serve with a tall glass of cold milk. 🥛
• Pair with a hot chocolate for that warm, cozy feel. ☕

Add a cute touch by using heart-shaped napkins or plates.

I love seeing everyone’s smiles when they see how adorable the setup looks!

Storage Tips

Keeping my S’mores Heart Cookies fresh is super important! To make sure they stay tasty and delightful, here are a few tips:

• Always let them cool first. Before storing, I make sure the cookies are completely cool. This prevents moisture from ruining their texture.
• Use airtight containers. An airtight container or a resealable plastic bag works great. It keeps them crunchy and delicious!

• Store layers separately so they don’t stick together.
• I like to place a piece of parchment paper between layers.

• Room temperature is my go-to! I store them at room temperature for up to 5-7 days. They stay tasty and ready to enjoy.

For long-term storage, freezing is the way to go. I follow these simple steps:

• Wrap each cookie individually in plastic wrap or foil. This avoids freezer burn.
• Place them in a freezer-safe bag or container, ensuring it’s sealed tightly.

When I want a treat, I just take them out and let them thaw at room temperature for about 15 minutes. It’s like a little surprise every time! 😋

Ingredients & Equipment:
