Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Dough

  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt Opt for sea salt for a more complex taste.
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter Can be substituted with margarine or coconut oil for a dairy-free version.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Chocolate Marshmallow Swirl Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until fully integrated.
  3. In another bowl, combine the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar and beat until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then mix in the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and stir until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
  6. Fold in the mini marshmallows gently to ensure they are evenly distributed.
  7. Scoop equal-sized mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, rotating the sheets halfway through for even baking.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Chill the dough if it feels sticky, use real marshmallows for the best texture, and store baked cookies in an airtight container. Freeze dough balls for fresh cookies anytime.
