Chocolate Chip Marshmallow Cookies

BarefootandpregnantintheKitchen's Note:

The ultimate carving cookie!! I found this on another site and made a few small changes and this quickly became my favorite cookie. CAUTION: You may need to double the recipe unless you have enough will power to not taste the dough!!

Just leave them on the cookie sheet to cool a bit and then you will have one deli-sh cookie!

I reduced the marshmallows to one cup- two seemed a bit much for my tastes. I had no problem with them sticking- the key is to generously grease the cookie sheet (I used cooking spray) and take them off the sheet as soon as they are firm enough to handle- about one minute out of the oven. They were also formed nicely- not sure if that is due to using less marshmallows or not. I will be making these again!

I will never make these cookies again. The marshmallows melted into globs of caramelized goo that had to be chiseled off of the cookie sheet, thus crumbling what remaining cookie there was. Out of the entire recipe, I probably got only about a dozen edible cookies. Five thumbs down.
