Marshmallow Chocolate Irresistible PB Cookies

By srumbel

These cookies are nice and chewy all on their own but the addition of marshmallows gives them a little extra chewiness which is always a good thing in my book. I just made a ball of dough and then flattened it and placed 3 mini marshmallows on top.
