Savory S’mores
Description
The recipe begins by mixing an all-purpose flour base with fresh herbs—chives, thyme, and rosemary—alongside salt, pepper, cold butter, and grated Parmesan to form a savory dough. After chilling, the dough is rolled and cut into rounds before baking until golden brown and crisp. These herb and cheese cookies provide a flavorful and textured base.
For assembly, thinly sliced prosciutto and cubes of Brie cheese are layered on the cookies, mimicking the layering concept of s’mores but with savory ingredients. A drizzle of honey adds contrast and complements the herbs and cheese.
This makes roughly 30 cookies and can be served as an appetizer or savory snack, offering a sophisticated blend of textures including crispy cookie, creamy cheese, and delicate meat slices.
Ingredients
herb and cheese cookies
- 1 cup all-purpose flour plus 2 tablespoons
- 1 tablespoon chives thinly sliced
- 2 teaspoons thyme minced
- 1 teaspoon rosemary minced
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ cup butter cold, unsalted, cut into small cubes, 1 stick
- 4 ounces Parmesan Cheese grated, about 1 heaping cup
- 1 tablespoon water cold
assembly
- 6 ounces prosciutto very thinly sliced
- 1 pound Brie cheese 2, 8 ounce wheels, cubed into 1 1/2 inch squares
- honey for drizzling and serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350˚F.
- Combine flour, herbs, salt, and pepper into a mixing bowl and whisk together.
- Place butter and Parmesan into the well of a food processor and pulse 3 to 4 times.
- Scrape downs sides of the bowl and add flour mixture. Pulse mixture until flour and butter mixture blend together into messy balls of dough.
- Add water and pulse an additional 4 to 5 times.
- Turn mixture onto a clean and lightly floured surface and gently knead until dough comes together.
- Form dough into a flat disc and wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Remove dough from fridge and place onto a clean and lightly floured surface.
- Using a rolling pin, roll dough out to about 1/4 inch thickness.
- Using a 2 1/2 inch round or fluted circle cookie cutter, cut out as many cookies as possible and transfer to a parchment lined baking sheet, about 1 inch apart.
- Bake cookies for 18 to 22 minutes or until golden brown.
- Remove from oven and transfer cookies to a cooling rack and cool completely.
- For s’mores: Pre-heat broiler to high. Line half the cookies onto a cooking sheet and top each with a slice of prosciutto. Top each piece of prosciutto with a square of brie and place under broiler for 30 seconds to 1 minute or until brie rind begins to char and brie softens (but isn’t completely melted).
- Remove from broiler, drizzle with honey and top with remaining cookies. Serve immediately.
Notes
- This recipe yields approximately 30 herb and cheese cookies suitable for assembling savory s’mores.
- Maintaining cold ingredients in the dough helps achieve a flaky, tender texture.
