1/2 cup shortening
Uncle Stevie with his beautiful wife and of course, Foxy Lady. |
2 eggs, beaten
1 3/4 cup flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup cocoa
1 tsp. vanilla extract
~21 large marshmallows
For glaze:
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate morsels
1/4 cup milk
2 T. butter
For cookies: Mix the shortening and sugar in one bowl; thoroughly combine. Add the eggs and blend. In another bowl mix the flour, soda, salt and cocoa. Combine the wet ingredients with the dry and stir until just blended. Wrap in Saran Wrap and refrigerate for a minimum of 30 min. Take the dough out and roll into small balls (~1" in diameter). Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 7 min. Pull the cookies out of the oven and place the halved pieces of marshmallow on top of each one. Put back into the oven and bake for another 2 min. Allow the cookies to cool on a cookie sheet for 2 min then on a cooling rack for 10 more minutes.
Meanwhile melt the chocolate morsels on top of a double boiler; add the milk and butter and stir until the butter is melted and the ingredients are combined. Spoon the chocolate onto the tops of each cookie and allow to harden before serving.
