What are some tips for making perfect Giant Rocky Road Cookies?

OOPS! I mean Giant Rocky ROAD Cookies! I just made these today. I thought they were kind of dry and crumbly. I liked the idea of them, but not sure if I'd do them again. They looked pretty good. The nuts and chocolate that you put on the top don't really sink into the cookies very easily. The marshmallows also didn't adhere very well to them when I put them on. I tried putting them where ever I had some melted chocolate showing so they could stick. I followed the recipe, so I'm wondering what I could do different next time, or what I might have done wrong that I'm not realizing.

:yuck: You will NEVER see me post about a recipe w/ oysters! Yes, I'm a dork and messed up the name. :blushing: That's what I get for writing it without the recipe right in front of my face. I must be sleep deprived or something. (Why can't we edit the title's of our own thread!)

Hi there! I'm sorry to hear that your Giant Rocky Road Cookies didn't turn out as expected. As a Pampered Chef consultant, I have some tips that might help you with your next batch.Firstly, make sure to use room temperature butter in the recipe. This will help the cookies hold together better and prevent them from becoming too dry or crumbly.Also, when adding the nuts and chocolate on top, try pressing them gently into the cookie dough before baking. This will help the toppings adhere better and not just sit on top.For the marshmallows, you can try gently pressing them into the cookies as well before baking. Alternatively, you can also try using mini marshmallows instead of regular sized ones, as they tend to stick better.I hope these tips help and that your next batch of Giant Rocky Road Cookies turns out deliciously! Happy baking!
