Things To Grab
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine semisweet and milk chocolate and microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring between each, until completely melted. Whisk until smooth.
- In a medium bowl, combine 12 tablespoons melted butter, sour cream, eggs, vinegar, vanilla and food coloring; whisking until combined. In a separate bowl, combine flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Gradually add to butter mixture, mixing completely between additions, just until combined. Stir in melted chocolate.
- Using a spoon, place heaping tablespoonfuls of batter on prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until cookies spring back when lightly pressed. Cool 10 minutes on baking sheets, then transfer to racks to cool completely.
- Meanwhile, for the filling, cream 1 cup softened butter and powdered sugar. Add marshmallow crème and vanilla. Whip for 3 minutes, or until fluffy.
- Sandwich two cookies with icing, then roll in shredded coconut.
