Dreamy White Chocolate-Coconut-Marshmallow Cookies

Ingredients:
2 cups cake flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/3 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup white chocolate chips
1 cup sweetened flaked coconut
1 cup coarsely chopped marshmallows (freeze for easier slicing)
1/4 cup finely chopped toasted almonds
3 large egg whites
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a large sheet pan with cooking spray.

In a medium sized mixing bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

In a large mixing bowl, using a mixer on medium speed, beat together butter and sugar until creamy, about 1-2 minutes. Beat in milk and vanilla extract until just combined. Reduce mixer speed to low, and beat in flour mixture, until just combined. Stir in white chocolate, coconut, marshmallow and almonds, by hand, until combined (dough will be stiff).

In a separate clean, medium sized mixing bowl, using a mixer with clean beaters on high speed, beat egg white and cream of tarter until stiff peaks form - about 2-3 minutes. Fold the egg whites into the cookie batter, in three additions, until combined.

Drop heaping teaspoons of dough onto sheet pan, and bake at 350 degrees F, for 16-18 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges. Cool for 2 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.

Makes 16 cookies

  3. I'm dreaming allready!!! Keep the marshmallow recipes coming! Oh boy these must be amazing! Be careful with that Mrs Fields!
    Where's the hair pictures????
    I'm so glad we're facebook buddies, it's fun. Now about the twitter, I have it for a while now but i keep forgetting about it... I think I left it without saying anything for a month... Maybe beacuse I was not "talking" to anyone and it just felt dull... I'll have to look it up again!

  4. Hola guapa! How can you manage to be everywhere? YOur blog, twitter, facebook... I just don't have enough time!

    Wonderful cookies, as always! Now that my daughter spends all day long at school, maybe I should surprise her with some cookies... I'll have a bit more of time :D

  5. Emiline, for a start why don't you put a link of your image page of facebook on your blog. I did that yesterday, so you can easily find me. Second, I still got some of those mashmallows left (thanks for telling me how to store them) and after making the marshmallows I've been making new things but I'll leave that as a surprise when I blog about it. Must make some more soon to do some of these dreamy cookies.

  8. Oh my goodness, macadamia AND coconut! Awesome. Do you think these will keep until this weekend? That would make my day/week/month :)

    Twitter? I'm not quite sure what that is... I'll have to look into it. Maybe it's the answer catching people online :)

  9. Looks like great cookies. I just cleared otu the last of my coconut to make my cookies last week. I do love coconut.

    I'm on Facebook and would be happy to have you as a friend. I don't know about starting Twitter though. I'm already on MySpace, Blogger, LiveJournal and Facebook. It's a little overwhelming.

  17. Emiline, I would love to be your friend on Facebook. My id is Lisa Gomes I think?, if you can't find me let me know. I tried to find you out of 122 people,didn't happen! Let me know. Remember, create an easy recipe next time. I am just now getting into my Betty Crocker/Emiline roots! I made rolls last week for goodness sakes, so if that doesn't tell you my experience level I don't know what would. I made some 3 ingredient peanut butter cookies too, didn't like the way they turned out to greasy and hard and rich on the palate. I don't eat what I create either! I am trying to cut down on my baby poundage! So maybe a lowfat muffin or cupcake?

    ReplyDelete
  34. I am your friend as of last night. Hooray!
    I'm very tempted to twitter, I do all day in my head really. Maybe I'll save it for winter when we're stuck indoors.
    Three cheers for white chocolate!

    ReplyDelete
  35. Bummer days :( But the cookies sound great! I once made cookies with mini marshmallows, but it melted and left caverns in the cookie, heh.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  41. Emiline you crack me up! I loved your comment on my blog about your parent's green beans and now this post just tops it!

    Yes, the cookies DO look heavenly and like something I would dream about on a good night. And yes, I think Mrs. Field's is probably a blog stalker of yours so you better be copyrighting this stuff!

    I do Twitter, but I don't know how to use it very well. Sorry, no facebook, maybe someday when they invent the 34 hour day... {I hear it is addictive and time consuming}...

    ReplyDelete
  42. Yummy! I'll be your facebook friend. And I also Twitter, but I must confess, I'm having trouble keeping up with it!

    ReplyDelete
  43. Those look great! Anything with coconut and I am so there.

    You know, I just can't get the hang of Twitter. I signed up, but I just never update it! I am terrible! :)

    ReplyDelete
  44. Seriously, I swear I check yesterday and you didn't have a new post. Now, not only is there a new post, but there're a bajillion comments already!

    These remind me of one of my favoritest cookies (chocolate macaroons), but more ethereal. Gossamer, even.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Emiline those cookies look seriously good and they do look like fluffy clouds!

    I'm emailing you so we can be facebook buddies ;o)

  48. They look totally dreamy and I'm loving your marshmallow posts. I can almost taste how fabulous these are!

    I am still getting used to twitter, I'll give it another shot!

    ReplyDelete
  49. I love to add marshmallows to my cookies. My favorite is to poke them on top so that they get a little toasty. I love all that white going on. You could name them White Out Blizzard cookies.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Didn't Mrs. Fields file for bankruptcy???

    Anyway, these look so good and sugary. Mmm mmm mmm.

    I have been on Twitter for a few weeks and just today I decided to use it. I think it will come in handy at work.

    ReplyDelete
  51. These do look pretty dreamy. If I were eating cookies right now, I'd make them. No cookies for me.

    I'm afraid to Twitter. I spend soooo much time in my day on the internet as it is that I don't want to get addicted to anything else!

    ReplyDelete
  52. I don't see your email address and I don't twitter. How can I contact you? Would send you cookbooks I've bought and can't keep.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Miss Sugaplum, when are you coming to NY? Twitter me when you're here. And bring a batch of your delicious cookies!!... Hehe.

    ReplyDelete
  59. I love that they are "dreamy"! I've decided that I can't get involved with twitter, or facebook, or anything else. I've already become addicted to food blogs, and I can't imagine what would happen if this addiction spread to twitter and facebook. I wish I had the time!!

    ReplyDelete
  60. BB, YAY! I'm so glad you liked them! That makes me haaaappy.

    ReplyDelete
  61. Awesome dreamy cookie creations!!

  62. I made these as a gift for a friend's birthday...she never got to taste a single one as they were all gobbled up by her guests. Note to self: Never bring a delicious food gift wrapped in clear cellophane to a birthday party with ravenous teenagers.
    I made them with semi-sweet chocolate chips instead of the white to take the sweetness down a notch. Still dreamy, like floating on clouds...

  63. Hi,
    I’ve just baked them!
    Thanks for the recipe! I quoted it on my blog:http://glimmercreations.blogspot.com/2009/05/cocoshmallows-czyli-ciacha-na-wielki.html
    Best regards!

  64. Unfortunately these did not work out for me, despite following recipe to a T. Very dry and dense and weird taste.
