How to Make Marshmallow Red Velvet Sugar Cookies
My original Red Velvet Sugar Cookies are covered in a soft gooey marshmallow coated in creamy dreamy chocolate. Simply delicious!
I whipped up a batch of Red Velvet Sugar Cookies and cut out 2-inch circles with a cookie cutter.
About two minutes before the cookies were done, I took the pan out and dropped a marshmallow on top. The marshmallow had been CUT IN HALF to make the cookie more uniform looking. (Don’t skip this step or the cookies will be too tall!)
I put the pan back into the oven for 2 minutes until the marshmallows were soft but not browned, then set them aside to cool. Then I simply coated the cookies in red, white, and green candy melts!
To make the Chocolate Candy Coating:
INGREDIENTS:
1 cup candy melts (I used white, green, and red)
3-4 tablespoons of shortening
microwave-safe container
Sprinkles (optional)
DIRECTIONS:
Place candy and shortening into a microwave-safe container (glass works well) and melt for one minute. Remove and stir, then place back in the microwave for 30-second increments.
Once the chocolates are mostly melted, remove and stir until completely smooth. I wanted the chocolate pretty runny to make covering the cookies easier, so I added a bit more shortening. Just drop it in and stir into the heated chocolate until dissolved.
Because my coating was a little runnier, I ended up covering the cookies twice.
