ingredients
Chocolate Cookies- 16oz semi sweet chocolate, chopped
- ¼ cup butter
- 1 1/3 cups sugar
- 4 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¾ cup flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ tsp chili powder
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- Pinch cayenne pepper, optional
- ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup milk chocolate chips
- 1 cup marshmallow fluff
- ½ cup vegetable shortening
- ¾ cup icing sugar
- 1 tbsp whole milk
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
directions
- Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a microwave safe bowl, melt semi-sweet chocolate and butter until smooth. In a large bowl, whisk sugar, eggs and vanilla. Whisk in melted chocolate mixture. Stir in flour, baking powder, cinnamon, chili powder, salt, cayenne pepper (if using) and both semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips, just until flour disappears. Drop the dough by tablespoon onto prepared baking sheet, at least 2 inches apart. Bake 9 minutes, or until the cookies are set. Remove from oven and cool before filling.
- For the marshmallow filling, using an electric mixer, beat the marshmallow fluff and shortening until smooth. Add the icing sugar, milk and vanilla extract, beating for 1 minute until fluffy. Spread filling on the bottom of a cookie and top with another cookie.
