Chocolate cookies with braaied marshmallow centres

By Sibahle Mtongana
Makes approximately 25
Easy
10 minutes
10 minutes

Ingredients

  • 500 g cake flour
  • 50 g cocoa powder
  • Salt, a pinch
  • 350 g unsalted butter, cut into pieces
  • 250 g caster sugar
  • 50 g chocolate chips, roughly chopped
  • 50 g dried cranberries, roughly chopped
  • 25 white and pink marshmallows, braaied
  • 2 T cocoa powder, for dusting
  • Coffee or vanilla ice cream, for serving

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C and lightly grease a baking tray with cooking spray.

Place the flour, cocoa powder and salt in a mixing bowl. Add the butter and rub with your fingers until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add the sugar and knead until a dough forms.

Add the chocolate chips and cranberries. Lightly knead until well mixed.

Chill for 15 minutes, then roll out the dough to a thickness of 1 cm. Cut into desired shapes.

Place on the tray and bake for about 8 to 12 minutes, or until cooked through.

Remove from the oven and cool slightly before transferring to a wire rack.

Grill the marshmallows over medium coals until soft and sandwich each one between 2 cookies. Dust with cocoa powder and serve with coffee or vanilla ice cream.

Cook’s note: This recipe makes a large batch of dough, which can be frozen.
