Preparation
Step 1
You might be wondering why we don’t just mix the marshmallows into the batter, and the reason is they sort of melt and disappear that way.
The golden brown crispy shelled marshmallows on top make this cookie truly incredible and rocky road-esque.
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F, and line two sheet pans with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, sift together the powdered sugar and cocoa powder. Whisk in the salt. Add the egg whites and vanilla and whisk until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips and almonds.

Omg omg these look so insanely good! I love rocky road, or anything chocolate. I need to make these asap!
Sometimes the almonds are already roasted, but often times they are not. Either roast them in a 400 degree oven for 10-15 minutes until they are golden brown (shake the pan every 5 minutes or so) or you can toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden brown. I recommend the oven method over the pan method though! Enjoy the cookies!
I’m gonna try to make make these today because as expected, the last of the pumpkin clouds I made have already gone earlier today!!
Dang it! These are beautiful. I determined I had to make them today! No parchment paper? It’s fiiiiiine…..after I put the first batch in the oven (on TINFOIL), I saw the comment about how tin foil doesn’t work. Dang me! Luckily I was able to get them off the tinfoil before they had cooled too much, but the bottom layer still stuck. So, they are edible, (thank the heavens) but not presentable. Ma’ bad! Maybe I can get some parchment paper and save the 2nd batch. Anyhow, thanks for the recipe!!! I love the toasted marshmallows. It’s like a smoore.
Hi Joanne, could I make these without the almonds?
