Frosted Chocolate Marshmallow Cookies


Brought to you by popular demand! My dear friends, this is for you! Remember, I have warned you of how fun and addictive these little cookies are! They are easy to whip up and decorate for each holiday!!
{recipe adapted from nobiggie.net}



Ingredients:
12 Large Marshmallows
2/3 c. Dark Cocoa
2 c. Flour
1 tsp. Baking Soda
1 tsp. Salt
1 c. Sugar
1 c. Crisco
1/2 c. Brown Sugar
2 Eggs
1 tsp. Vanilla

Directions:
Cut your marshmallows into thirds and freeze for 30 minutes. (I found that the Easter bunny marshmallows were slightly smaller, so I just cut those in half.) Pre heat oven to 400 degrees. Cream crisco, brown sugar and sugar for 5 minutes. Add in eggs and vanilla. In a separate bowl whisk together the dry ingredients then add to the sugar mixture. Wrap about 2 tbs of dough around each frozen marshmallow. Make sure it is packed tightly and no marshmallow is showing. Lightly flatten the cookies before placing in the oven. Bake for 4- 5 minutes! The cookies will look doughy but that's okay! If you bake them too long the marshmallow will disintegrate! 
I frosted them with a ganache! ( about 1/3 c. Chocolate chips and 3 tbs heavy cream. Microwaved then stirred together.) and yes, I have used milk in a pinch!
