Chocolate Frosted Marshmallow Cookies
1/2 cup butter
2 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate
1 egg
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup milk
1 (16 ounce) package large marshmallows
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F(180 degrees C). Lightly
grease cookie sheets or line with parchment paper. Melt
butter and chocolate in small heavy saucepan over low
heat; stir to blend. Remove from heat; cool. Beat egg,
brown sugar, vanilla and baking soda in large bowl until
light and fluffy. Blend in chocolate mixture and flour until
smooth. Slowly beat in milk to make light, cake-batter-like
dough. Drop dough by teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart onto
prepared cookie sheets. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until
firm in center. Cut marshmallows in half. Immediately place
halved marshmallow, cut side down, onto each baked
cookie. Return to oven 1 minute or just until marshmallow
is warm enough to stick to cookie. Remove to wire racks
to cool. Frost with Fudge Frosting (below).
