Halloween is just around the corner and I've been wanting to try making marshmallow spider webs. My friends Amanda @afewcakes and Stefanie @okcsweets have done this technique on their fun Halloween cakes.
I decided to try is technique and dress up the classic chocolate chip cookies for Halloween. I had so much fun with the melted marshmallows. It was very sticky but I really enjoyed stretching it over the cookies.
These Halloween Marshmallow Chocolate Chip Cookies are so easy and super fun to make. You can't go wrong with the classic chocolate chip cookie that everyone loves and topping it with marshmallow and sprinkles is the perfect Halloween treat.
Hope you give this marshmallow technique a go.
Happy baking xo

Tips
· These cookies spread when baked; so remember to leave room between each cookie on the tray.
· The melted marshmallows cool quite quickly but you can always remelt it for another 20 seconds. Just remember to let it cool slightly before using it.
· Melted marshmallows are very sticky but running your fingers under warm water removes it quite easily.
