Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup light brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
18 large marshmallows
Powdered sugar (for glaze)
3 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (for glaze)
1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (for ghost faces)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cream together butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then add vanilla extract.
In another bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix into wet ingredients; stir in chocolate chips.
Drop tablespoon-sized cookie dough onto prepared sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Bake for 9-11 minutes until edges are golden.
Place a marshmallow on each warm cookie; let cool for 5 minutes before transferring to wire rack.
Prepare the glaze by whisking powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Once cookies are cool, drizzle glaze over marshmallows.
Melt chocolate chips for ghost faces and use piping bag or toothpick to create eyes and mouths.
