Sometimes all you need is a cookie. Well, today was one of those days for me but I was feeling lazy so I wanted something easy that wouldn't require much cleaning up afterwards. So I thought about my flour less peanut butter cookies. Who doesn't love a 4 ingredient one bowl cookie? But I wanted a little more than the one note flavor of peanut butter, so naturally I thought "lets put marshmallow and chocolate on it!!!!". And that's what I did and that's how these babies were born.
mmmmmmmmmm… just look at it in all its glory.
Cookie Ingredients:
- 1 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
- 1 egg
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350. Add everything to a mixer and blend it until incorporated, how easy is that!!! So easy. Then scoop cookies on to a cookie tray. You can roll the cookie dough balls in sugar to make them look pretty if you're feeling fancy, or be lazy like me and just plop it on the tray trying not to lick it off your fingers. Next, using a fork press the cookie down and leave nice marks on top of the cookie. Bake for 10-14 minutes.
Marshmallow Fluff Ingredients:
- 2 egg whites
- 3/4 c sugar
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar (you may need more or less)
(you could just use store bought for the filling, but how cool is it to make your own?)
Topping (optional) :
- chocolate
Directions:
Place the egg whites and sugar in the bowl of your stand mixer and place the bowl over a double boiler. Whisk constantly until the egg white mixture becomes soft, thicker, frothy and white, about 4-5 mins.
Then take the bowl off the heat and beat with the whisk attachment on your mixer for about 10 minutes on medium speed until you get glossy soft peaks. Next add your powdered sugar until you get stiff peaks.
Assemble the cookies by placing a nice glob of marshmallow in between two yummy cookies. And garnish with as much chocolate as your heart desires.
Enjoy! xoxo
