Notes

If you like a chewy cookie store in an airtight container on the counter for up to 5 days. In your storage container, add a piece of bread (I like to use the end piece of a loaf). The cookies will draw out the moisture from the bread and keep your cookies (and the marshmallow) soft.
If you instead want to keep that classic crunch of the cereal marshmallows, store them covered loosely with plastic wrap or foil.
Do not leave your cookies on the hot baking sheet to cool. They will continue to cook and become over-baked!
