These crispy marshmallow cookies are incredibly easy to put together and only need 2 ingredients. They have crispy and light textures like meringue cookies.
This is probably one of the easiest “cookies” I have ever made in my life so far. I’m not even sure if this needs any recipe 🙂 My kids get excited that it was something they can actually do on their own. They love meringue cookies but those were not something they could do on their own. These crispy marshmallow cookies remind me of the texture of meringue cookies, light, airy, crispy, but not as sweet.
How to make crispy marshmallow cookies with only 2 ingredients
1. Preheat oven to 250 F (120 C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. If you use large size marshmallows, cut them in half
2. Arrange 3 mini marshmallows close together to form a triangle on a baking sheet, about 1 inch apart. They will puff up a little bit. Repeat until you get 20 sets of this
3. Put this in the oven at the middle rack and bake for 15 minutes
4. Remove from the oven and quickly press one whole almond on top of each marshmallow set. Put the tray bake in the oven and bake for another 45 minutes. The long and slow baking time is to crisp up the marshmallows
5. When they are done baking, turn off the oven and leave them to cool in the oven for 30 minutes without opening the oven door. Then transfer to a cooling rack to let them cool down completely and then transfer to an air-tight container and they will stay crisp for weeks
If this is not easy, I’m not sure what is. Can you handle that? 🙂
Variations
This crispy marshmallow cookies are very flexible. You can add whatever your heart desire
1. Nuts: you can also use pistachio, sliced almonds, cashews
2. Seeds: pepita seeds, sunflower seeds
3. Dip in chocolate. You can make a simple ganache by melting some dark or semi-sweet chocolate over water-bath or microwave and stir in a bit of butter into the chocolate and then dip or drizzle chocolate on top of the cookies and let the chocolate set on top of the cooling rack
