Give these Chocolate Marshmallow Cookies a try! They’re super yummy and easy to whip up. Plus, they’re perfect for any baking level. Start with your go-to chocolate cookie dough (store-bought is totally fine!) and add half a marshmallow on top just before they’re done baking. After cooling, each cookie gets a decadent chocolate coating. The result? A rich, fudgy cookie with a melt-in-your-mouth gooey marshmallow center. Seriously, these are such a treat! Chocolate Marshmallow Cookie Ingredients Favorite chocolate cookie recipe: Choose a recipe that you love! If you’re short on time, packaged refrigerated dough works great. Store-bought dough: If using store-bought dough, we love Ruby Snap’s Maris dough if it’s available. If you need to consider allergies, we like these Gluten-Free, Vegan Cookies. Toppings: Large marshmallows: Fresh marshmallows are easier to cut, melt into the cookie better, and taste best. Semi-sweet chocolate chips: Quality matters. The better the chocolate, the better the flavor. Coconut oil: This helps to thin the chocolate for a smoother topping. How To Make Chocolate Marshmallow Cookies Prepare the dough: Use your favorite chocolate cookie recipe. Partially bake: Start baking according to the recipe, but remove 2 minutes early. Add marshmallows: Press half a marshmallow on each cookie and finish baking. Cool cookies. Make chocolate topping: Microwave chocolate and oil until smooth. Top the cookies: Spoon melted chocolate over cooled cookies. Recipe Tips Stir frequently: Stir the chocolate every 20 seconds. This helps evenly distribute heat and prevents the chocolate from seizing. Avoid water: Ensure no water gets into the chocolate as even a small amount can make it clumpy. Thin consistency: If the chocolate is too thick and won’t spread nicely over the Chocolate Marshmallow Cookies, add a bit more oil. STORAGE Wait until fully cool before adding to an airtight container. Separate layers with parchment paper. Store at room temperature, but away from heat or light for up to five days.
