These cookies are so yummy and fun! The marshmallow stays soft and the rest is chewy, sweet, chocolate deliciousness. They can be made so many different ways too, use chocolate chip cookie dough instead or maybe even peanut butter! Spray kitchen shears lightly with cooking spray to make cutting marshmallows easy.
