Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Butter Mixture

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the **softened unsalted butter**, **brown sugar**, and **granulated sugar** until well combined. This should take about 2-3 minutes.

Then, add the **eggs** to the mixture and beat until the mixture is smooth and fluffy.

Step 2

Combine Dry Ingredients

Sift together the **all-purpose flour** and **baking powder** in a separate bowl.

Gradually add the dry ingredients into the butter mixture, mixing until just combined. It’s okay if there are a few lumps.

Step 3

Knead the Dough

Transfer the dough onto a clean, lightly floured surface and knead by hand until it forms a **smooth, elastic ball**. This should take about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Add Chocolate Chips

Fold in the **chocolate chips** gently with a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 5

Form the Cookie Balls

Divide the dough into equal portions, and roll them into **balls** about the size of a golf ball.

Step 6

Add the Marshmallow Center

Press your thumb into the center of each dough ball to create a small indentation.

Place a **marshmallow** into each indentation, then carefully pinch the dough around the marshmallow to seal it in. Reshape into a ball if needed.

Step 7

Prepare for Baking

Line a baking sheet with **parchment paper**. Place the prepared cookie balls on the sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake the Cookies

Preheat your oven to **200Β°C (400Β°F)**. Bake the cookies for **10-12 minutes**, or until they are lightly golden on the edges.

Step 9

Serve Warm

Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.

These cookies are best enjoyed **warm**, allowing the marshmallow filling to be gooey and delicious!

Variations

Gluten-Free Version: Use a gluten-free flour blend instead of regular flour to make these cookies safe for those with gluten sensitivities. 🍞
Vegan Variation: Substitute the butter with coconut oil and the eggs with flaxseed meal mixed with water (1 tablespoon flaxseed meal + 2.5 tablespoons water per egg). This will create equally delicious vegan Marshmallow Cookies! 🌱

Faq

  • What should I do if my cookie dough is too sticky?

    If your dough feels too sticky, try adding a little more flour, a tablespoon at a time, until it reaches a workable consistency.

  • How can I tell when the cookies are done?

    The edges should be lightly golden, and the centers may still look slightly soft. They will firm up as they cool.

  • Can I freeze the cookie dough?

    Absolutely! Form the balls and freeze them on a baking sheet. Once frozen, transfer them to a zip-top bag for long-term storage.

  • What other fillings can I use instead of marshmallows?

    You can try chocolate chips, caramel, or even peanut butter for a fun twist on these cookies!

  • Is it possible to make these cookies without an oven?

    Yes! You can use a skillet or a microwave with a special microwave-safe cookie recipe.

  • How can I make my cookies softer?

    To achieve softer cookies, avoid overmixing and underbake them slightly. Adding a bit of cornstarch also helps to soften the texture!
