This is my attempt at a homemade “Viva Puff” (a commercial chocolate covered marshmallow cookie). It think they turned out great! I might make the cookies smaller next time.

Ingredients

Cookies:
2 1/4 cups flour
1/2 cup cocoa
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup white sugar
1 cup butter, softened
3 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
Raspberry jelly
15 large marshmallows

Frosting:
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/3 cup 10% cream
1 teaspoon butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup icing (confectioners’) sugar

Directions

1. In a small bowl, combine flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
2. In mixer bowl, combine butter and sugars and beat. Add eggs and beat until light and fluffy. Stir in vanilla.
3. Add dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
4. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto ungreased cookie sheet, 2 inches apart.
5. Bake at 300 degrees F. until slightly underdone, about 16 to 18 minutes.
6. Remove from oven, spoon about a half teaspoon of jelly over each cookie.
7. Cut marshallows in half and place one half, cut side down, over jelly on cookie. Return to oven and bake for 3 more minutes. Remove from oven and let cookies cool completely on wire rack.
8.  Prepare frosting: melt chocolate chips in microwave or on stove. Stir until smooth.
9. Add cream, butter and vanilla and stir to combine. Stir in icing sugar and stir until smooth.
10. Spread frosting over each cookie, covering marshamllow. Let stand until set.
