More About This Recipe

  • The earliest versions of marshmallows date back as far as ancient Egypt, where they were used for medicinal purposes and eating them was reserved for royalty only. But because we’re lucky and living in the future, today even non-royals get to enjoy this widely available treat (although Kate Middleton’s brother did cofound a marshmallow company). There are lots of ways to enjoy marshmallows, but we’re especially partial to marshmallow cookies, like these hot chocolate cookies from the 2014 Pillsbury Bake-Off® Contest. They’ve remained one of our most popular cookies since then, with a solid four-star rating that speaks for itself! So even if you’re already an expert on how to make cookies, with their rich cocoa flavor and gooey centers, this new take is bound to impress you.
