makes about 20 2-inch square sandwich cookies

cookie recipe from:


3/4 cup granulated sugar

1 1/2 cup plus 3 Tablespoons all-purpose flour

3/4 cup plus 1 Tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoons salt

15 Tablespoons (7 1/2 ounces) unsalted butter, but into 3/4-inch cubes, at room
temperature (this is important)

Position the racks in the lower and upper thirds of the oven and preheat the oven to 350
degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the sugar, flour,
cocoa powder, baking soda and salt and mix on low speed. With the mixer running, add the
butter a few pieces at a time. The mixture will have a sandy texture at first and then will
begin to form peddle-size pieces. As soon as the dough starts to come together, stop the
mixer. Make sure all the butter is well incorporated. If there are large butter pockets, mix
for a few seconds more.

Form and roll the dough straight from the mixer. The dough becomes hard to work with if
chilled.

Transfer the dough to a board, and knead together. Use the heel of your hand or a pastry
scraper to shape the dough into a block about 5 by 7 inches. Cut the block into two pieces.

One at a time, roll each block of dough between two pieces of parchment or waxed paper
until about 1/8-inch thick. Use a ruler and pizza slicer to slice the dough into 2!2-inch
squares. Place 1/2 to 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheet. Form excess scraps into
the second half of dough, and roll again.

Bake for 12-15 minutes, rotating the sheets halfway through the baking. Remove from the
oven and cool on the sheets for 2 to 5 minutes. They’ll be too soft to move straight from the
oven. Transfer the cookies to a cooling rack and let cool completely.

Once cookies are baked and cooled, melt chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave
for 30-45 seconds on 50% power. Toast marshmallows over the stove flame, or on a cookie
sheet under the oven broiler. If you use the broiler, keep a close eye on the marshmallows.
They toast very quickly.

Spread melted chocolate on underside of cookie. Top with warm, toasted marshmallow,
and top with another cookie.

Yuuummm enjoy it!
