Marshmallow Cookie Sandwiches were born when Tennessee gave us the Moon Pie in 1917, marking one giant leap for snack-kind. The homemade version is out of this world. Graham crackers are surprisingly easy to make; try our Cinnamon and Sugar Graham Crackers recipe.

Time 35m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup all purpose flour
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon sichuan peppercorns, finely ground
1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature, cut into small cubes
5 tablespoons powdered sugar
8 marshmallows

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and Sichuan peppercorns.
  • In a large bowl, beat the butter and powdered sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the dry ingredients and beat until the dough comes together.
  • Roll dough into a 1½ inch log, then wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Unwrap dough and slice into ¼-inch-thick rounds. Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet, leaving 1-2 inches of space between each cookie.
  • Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are light golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  • Flip half of the cookies over. Place a marshmallow on each of the flipped cookies. Using a kitchen torch, toast the marshmallows until they puff up and char in some spots. Top with the remaining cookies to form the sandwiches.
  • Enjoy!
