  • Select 1 of Kara’s Cupcakes Artisan Vanilla Marshmallows. Heat the marshmallow with a handheld torch or broil in oven on a sheet pan for a few minutes until softened. Be careful not to over burn!
  • Select 2 cookies of the same size. Place the first of your chocolate chip cookies on a cooled sheet pan with the bottom side up. Add your warm melted/ toasted marshmallow to the cookie. Drizzle the top of the marshmallow with a 1 tablespoon of melted chocolate and gently press 2nd cookie, bottom side down, on top of the marshmallow, chocolate and 1st cookie. Press top and bottom of cookies to form a sandwich. Allow for the softened marshmallow and melted chocolate to ooze out of the cookie. This is where you may need to lick your fingers or call for an intervention!
