Jessicas Marshmallow Clouds Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Until you are ready to assemble the cookies just prior to baking, keep the marshmallows in the freezer- otherwise they will thaw too rapidly.
• Place the marshmallows back into the freezer between each batch of cookies.
• In a medium bowl combine flour, cocoa and baking soda.
• Set aside.
• Combine sugars in a large bowl.
• Using an electric mixer, blend in butter, scraping down the sides of the bowl.
• Add eggs and vanilla, and beat at medium speed until light and fluffy.
• Add the flour mixture and chocolate chips, and blend at a low speed until combined.
• Batter will be very stiff.
• Gather 4-5 frozen marshallows in the palm of your hand and cover them with a heaping tablespoon of dough.
• Wrap the dough around the marshmallows, completely encasing them and forming a 2-inch diameter ball.
• Place balls on ungreased baking sheets, 2 inches apart.
• Bake 8 to 10 minutes.
• Cool on pan 2 minutes, then transfer to a cool flat surface.

Steps:

• Combine everything for the cookie dough; chill while preparing meringue.
• To prepare meringue: Beat egg whites with salt in small bowl until soft mounds (not peaks) form. Gradually add sugar; continue beating until stiff peaks form. (Once you get peaks that stand up, stop. You can overbeat meringue.) Fold in vanilla, vinegar, chocolate chips, and crushed candy.
• Shape dough into balls using a rounded teaspoon. Place on ungreased cookie sheets. Flatten with bottom of glass dipped in sugar.
• Top each cookie with a rounded teaspoon of meringue. Bake at 325 for 20-25 minute.
