Soft, chocolate puffs with real marshmallows inside ... covered in sugar. They stay moist if you keep them in a cookie can with cellophane, cutting off all possible ways of air getting in. Ingredients:
3 cups sifted all-purpose flour |
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 cup white sugar |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
1 cup shortening |
2 eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
60 miniature marshmallows |
1/3 cup granulated sugar for decoration |
Directions:
1. Put marshmallows in the freezer for a couple of hours.
2. In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, salt, cocoa, and baking soda. In a separate bowl, cream together the shortening and both sugars. Blend in unbeaten eggs and vanilla. Beat well.
3. Stir in flour mixture and blend thoroughly.
4. Stick bowl in fridge; until dough is hardened.
5. Shape 1 teaspoon sized piece of dough around each marshmallow, seal well. Roll in sugar.
6. Bake at 400 degrees F (205 degrees C) on greased sheet for 5 to 7 minutes, or until cookies crack. Cool for about 2 minutes before removing from cookie sheet.
