Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Marshmallow Cookies

Even the name/description of these cookies is a mouthful, but all the various parts come together into something really magical! The cream cheese frosting is delicious, and the marshmallows sort of disappear into it with just a bit more vanilla flavor in the pile.

Ingredients:

Dough:

  • 1/2 cup butter, room temp
  • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 large egg + 1 egg yolk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
  • 10 large marshmallows, cut in half

Frosting:

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, room temp
  • 1/2 cup butter, room temp
  • 3 cups powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line 2 baking sheets with parchment.

In a large bowl, cream the butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

Add the egg, yolk, and vanilla, beating until combined.

Add the baking soda, salt, and cornstarch, again beating until mixed, and then the flour, beating until just combined.

Stir in the chocolate chips, and scoop the dough into large mounds onto the lined sheets.

Bake for 8 minutes, then remove from the oven and gently press half of a marshmallow onto each cookie.

Bake an additional two minutes, until the marshmallows are just slightly puffed, and the cookies just turning golden at the edges. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

To make the frosting, beat together the butter and cream cheese in a large bowl.

Beat in the powdered sugar until smooth.

Spread a heaping tablespoon of frosting onto each cookie. Enjoy, storing any leftovers in the fridge.
