Marshmallows are light and airy and form an integral part of these delicious cookies.
When baking these tasty treats, try covering your baking sheets with Reynold's Non-Stick foil. It is amazing!  No spray required and everything just slides right off.

The best part when covering your sheets with foil - zero clean-up! You just remove the foil, toss it, and put the cooled pans away!
