Description
Deliciously chewy cookies made with browned butter, rice krispies, and mini marshmallows.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (2 sticks, 226 g) salted butter
- 2 ¾ cups (340 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (213 g) packed light brown sugar
- ⅔ cup (167 g) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs (room temperature, whisked)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups rice krispies
- 1 ½ cup mini marshmallows
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Allow the butter to come to a boil. The butter will become foamy. Once it starts boiling, swirl the pan constantly until the butter passes foamy phase and becomes a deep amber color. Use a spatula to stir and keep an eye on the color. Once browned in color, remove from the heat, and transfer to a large bowl to stop the cooking and to cool slightly.
- In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
- To the browned butter, add the brown sugar, granulated sugar and whisk to combine.
- Whisk in the eggs and vanilla and whisk to combine.
- Add the flour mixture, rice krispies, and mini marshmallows and stir using a wooden spoon or spatula until the dough comes together and the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Scoop cookie dough into each 2 heaping tablespoons (about 50 g each). Place on a parchment lined baking sheet, cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- When ready to bake, position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Place cookie dough balls 2 inches apart on the baking sheet. Bake 8 at a time as they are larger cookies. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges are lightly golden and the tops are set and dry. Remove from the oven.
- Immediately after removing from the oven, use a large round cookie cutter to reshape the cookies into perfect rounds.
- Allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store airtight at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Notes
- Ensure the butter is not burnt; it should be a rich amber color.
- Allow the dough to chill for better texture and shape after baking.
