Chocolate Marshmallow Cookies

Chocolate Marshmallow Cookies taste like a warm, cozy cup of hot cocoa in cookie form. They’re such a simple cookie to serve anytime the chocolate mood strikes. I love to serve them warm right out of the oven when the texture of the marshmallows is still gooey, and the frosting melts right into the cookie. But a cooled cookie is also delicious at room temperature, after the frosting has had the chance to cool and harden a bit. They’re really easy to make a double (or triple!) batch to take to potlucks or picnics.

Best Marshmallows to Use in Chocolate Marshmallow Cookies

For that classic chocolate marshmallow flavor, mini plain marshmallows are perfect for this recipe. If you don’t like as much marshmallow, cut the mini marshmallows in half and use just four halves on the cookie.We love to use peppermint marshmallows at Christmas time for that chocolate mint flavor that is so perfect around the holidays.You could also use strawberry flavored or chocolate flavored marshmallows. Any kind of flavor works with gooey chocolate cookie and sweet chocolate frosting.
