- 1 cup graham crackers finely crushed, about 7 sheets

Preheat the oven to 350F then line a baking sheet with parchement paper and set it aside.
Cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until combined. Add in the egg and the vanilla butter emulsion and mix again.
Add in the flour, graham cracker crumbs, salt, baking soda, and baking powder and mix just until the flour mixture disappears.
Using a large cookie scooper, scoop out 8 equally sized cookie dough balls, roll them between the palm of your hands then roll them in the ⅓ cup of the crushed graham crackers.
Place the cookie dough on the prepared baking sheet, then using a 1 tablespoon measuring spoon, make a well in the center of the cookie dough. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, pull the cookies out, make an indentation in the center using a ¼ cup measuring cup or the bottom of a glass then place back in the oven for another 2 minutes. Let the cookies cool down on the baking sheet for 15 minutes then transfer to a cooling rack.
