I’ve been making these for a few years now, and they have turned into one of my families favorites. It might have something to do with the fact that the cookie part tastes more like cake than cookie, or it could just be the overload of chocolate! I know it isn’t much of a surprise if the marshmallows are peaking out, but my frosting was a bit warmer than it should have been, and that made it harder to work with. Still yummy though!
Chocolate Surprise Cookies
(3 dozen)
1¾ c. Flour
¾ c. Cocoa Powder
½ t. Baking Soda
½ t. Salt
8 T. Softened Butter (1 stick)
1 c. Sugar
1 lg Egg
½ c. Milk
1 t. Vanilla
Marshmallows – (I normally use mini, but this time we cut big ones in half)
Frosting (recipe below)
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Drop tablespoonfuls (or cookie scoops) onto a greased cookie sheet and bake 8-10 minutes.
(The cookie will look puffed up, and like it isn’t done in the center but take it out anyway!)
Press marshmallows into the warm cookies and set aside to cool.

Mmmm, those look tasty! And your daughters face is PRICELESS! That's my favorite part of making cookies these days . . . getting pictures of the messy, happy, chocolate-covered face afterwards 🙂 Thanks for the recipe!
