Chocolate Chip Marshmallow Cookies

Hakima
These Chocolate Chip Marshmallow Cookies are made with brown butter, giving them a rich, nutty flavor and a slightly caramelized taste. Espresso powder adds a subtle coffee kick that enhances the sweetness of the chocolate chips. The marshmallow fluff melts into gooey pockets throughout the cookies, creating a delicious contrast with the chewy texture and crispy edges.

Ingredients
 

  • ½ cup (113.5 g) unsalted butter
  • ½ cup (125 g) + 2 tablespoon brown sugar, packed dark or brown works
  • 3 tablespoon (37 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 large whole egg + 1 egg yolk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • cups (180 g) all purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon espresso powder or instant espresso powder
  • 3.5 oz. dark chocolate, chopped (I use 70%) You can use chocolate chips also
  • 2-3 tablespoon Marshmallow fluff + more if you want to top the cookies before baking

Instructions
 

Brown Butter

  • Melt butter in a medium sauce pan on medium heat. Stir the butter to make sure it melts evenly. Once the butter is completely melted, it will start to foam up. Continue stirring the butter. As it cooks, it will start to change into a deeper color. This could take 6-8 minutes. You'll start to notice a nutty aroma and the butter will begin to have brown specs at the bottom of the pan. The entire process of browning butter from start to finish should not take more than 10 minutes on medium heat. Once butter is browned, pour it into a heat proof bowl and set it aside to cool for about 5 or 10 minutes.
