Chocolate marshmallow cookies


Can anyone just ever get enough of cookie dough :)
Those were kinda yummy but I made it too sweet. Should have gone easy with the sugar on the cookie dough as the marshmallows+icing was already sweet.

Basic recipe (i don't believe in exact portions, just add as you feel is right)

  • 4 tbsp butter at room temperature
  • 40 g granulated sugar
  • 30 g brown sugar (optional, otherwise replace with white sugar)
  • 1 big egg
  • a few dashes of milk ( i suppose full cream would be best but i used low fat haha)
    • 3 tbsp cocoa powder
    • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1/2 teaspoon salt
    • Marshmallows, snipped into half
    • Enough flour to make the batter gooey yet not too dry
    • Vanilla essence

cream butter with sugar, add egg, vanilla essence, cream again.
sieve flour, soda, salt & cocoa powder together, mix with above butter+sugar. add flour/milk as necessary.

spoon the dough with a tablespoon onto greased pan (leave space for it to rise)
oven at 170 celcius, bake 5-10 mins, take out, press marshmallow on, put it in again for 3 mins or until the marshmallow has puffed up. don't wait too long though, cause it might just melt off. very ugly, trust me.
if you feel the need to ice it then do.

cheers:)
