Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Lightly grease the parchment paper. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

In a large bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper (if using). (Time: 2 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

Add the confectioners' sugar, egg whites, vanilla extract, and salt to the bowl. Mix with a spatula or wooden spoon until a smooth, glossy dough forms. Be careful not to overmix. (Time: 5 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

Gently fold in the miniature marshmallows until evenly distributed throughout the dough. (Time: 2 minutes)

05

Step
5 mins

Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie. (Time: 5 minutes)

06

Step
11 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, rotating the baking sheets halfway through, until the edges of the cookies are set and the tops are slightly cracked. (Bake time: 10-12 minutes)

07

Step
18 mins

Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before carefully transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. The centers will be soft when warm but will firm up as they cool. (Cooling time: 15-20 minutes)

For a more intense chocolate flavor, use Dutch-processed cocoa powder.
Room temperature egg whites whip up better and contribute to a lighter cookie.
Don't overbake the cookies, as they will become dry and crumbly. The centers should still be slightly soft.
Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

    I added a pinch of espresso powder to the dry ingredients and it took the chocolate flavor to the next level!

    My kids loved these! They disappeared in minutes. Will definitely be making them again.

  • Aaron Abshire

    These cookies are dangerously good! So easy to make and the perfect balance of chocolate and sweetness.

  • Isidro Schulist

    I found the centers were still a little too soft even after cooling. Next time, I'll bake them for an extra minute or two.
