We don’t midpoint to brag but all the flavors merging that make us want to smile.
It reminded me (Serena) of a time when I had people tell me I couldn’t melt or torch (this included my parents and plane a roommate of mine). Maybe they weren’t entirely wrong but I have to say, these cookies boosted my conviction in my cooking journey. Still a long way to go but hey, we’re enjoying the path there.
What we love well-nigh these cookies is that you don’t have to go whilom and vastitude to make them and it’s one everyone can enjoy! Plane Santa (*wink*). These are gluten and mostly grain-free (depending on your fluff). Yes!
Baking Cookies Can be a breeze
Much of the time for this peppermint chocolate marshmallow cookie recipe is due to nippy times. It only needs 45 minutes of zippy time. The shortbread is shockingly simple to put together and the rest is pure fun. In this version, we use our tiger nut all-purpose flour blend but if you don’t have allergies you can hands use all-purpose flour 1:1. The weightier part?
- Beat the butter, sugars, and vanilla on medium-high until fluffy with a mixer for well-nigh 3 minutes. Whisk flour and salt in a separate trencher and then add the salted flour to the creamed butter and sugar, mixing on low until just blended.
- Form the dough into a log shape that’s 2 inches in diameter. Wrap with cling wrap and nippy for 2 hours or until firm. Once the dough is chilled, preheat the oven to 350°F and line two sultry sheets with parchment paper and grease. Set aside. Slice log into ½-inch-thick rounds and lay them unappetizing on the sultry sheets. Torch until the edges are just whence to brown, well-nigh 13 to 15 minutes. Allow them to tomfool on the sultry sheet and do not be tempted to touch them or poke them. At first, it may seem tender and not cooked. They need to tomfool and harden as they do (about 10 minutes).
- Carefully spread a tablespoon of marshmallow fluff/creme on each cookie. Place cookies in the freezer and freeze until fluff/creme is firm well-nigh 15-20 minutes.
- Place a sultry sheet lined with parchment paper on the counter. Put a wire rack on top of the sultry sheet. Add chocolate and oil to a heat-proof trencher and melt equal to package instructions.

If not put in the freezer uncovered for flipside 10-15 minutes. Serve or transfer cookies to the refrigerator. Store any leftovers in an snapped container in the refrigerator.
