This is a yummy cookie recipe I discovered back in 1998. I saw a KSL noon news broadcast where Alisa Bangerter shared the recipe. I did alter it slightly. I use a half of a large marshmallow for each cookie instead of a third. Who doesn’t want a little extra gooey marshmallow with their cookie? It’s just a fun variation on a cookie with all the flavor of a marshmallow brownie. And or course, it’s topped off with a chocolate frosting. This one treat my hubby really loves. Serve them up with a tall glass of milk. Delish!
Marshmallow Brownie Cookies
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cups flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup cocoa
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
- Large marshmallows, cut in half
- With a mixer, cream together butter and sugar. Add egg and vanilla extract; mix well.
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, salt, soda, and cocoa.
- Add dry ingredients to butter mixture in thirds alternating with the milk. Stir in nuts if desired.
- Drop by teaspoon (I use my cookie scoop) onto a greased cookie sheet approximately 2 inches apart. Bake at 350 degrees F for 9 minutes and remove from oven.
- Immediately place a marshmallow piece (place with the sticky cut side down) on the top of each cookie and bake for 2 more minutes. When cookies are cool, frost each cookie with frosting. Makes 2 1/2 dozen.
Chocolate Frosting:
- 1/2 cup butter
- 3 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup cocoa
- 4 cups confectioners’ sugar
Mix ingredients together well and frost tops of cooled cookies.

I’ve stopped bookmarking special recipes and just open your site and search. This looks so good I know it won’t be long before I bake them. I think I have most of the ingredients now anyway. Have a great day.
