The best marshmallow cookies for a midnight feast

This single recipe could rapidly become a family treasure. It’s messy, fun and absolutely delicious!

When cooked, the marshmallow melts to become a toffee that smashes together with chocolate — making for a gooey texture that’s completely out of this world.

• 200g white sugar
• 130g brown sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 10mls vanilla
• A teaspoon of cinnamon
