Recipe View 1 hrs Allow the cookies to cool completely at room temperature until firm. This will take about 1 hour.

For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of regular melted butter. Cook the butter over medium heat until it turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma, then let it cool slightly before adding it to the marshmallows.
If you're having trouble with the marshmallows sticking to the spoon, try lightly greasing the spoon with butter or cooking spray.
Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain their freshness and prevent them from becoming too sticky.
