Meteor Rock Cookies

Supplies:

• 125g butter (softened)

• ½ cup brown sugar

• ½ cup white sugar

• 1 egg

• 1 tsp vanilla essence

• 1½ cups plain flour

• ½ tsp baking soda

• 1 cup chocolate chips or chunks

• ½ cup crushed biscuits (e.g. digestives or cookies)

• ½ cup mini marshmallows or broken marshmallows

• Optional: ¼ cup cocoa powder for darker “space rock” colour

Steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 180°C (bake) and line a baking tray with baking paper.

2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars together until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla, mixing until smooth.

3. Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in flour and baking soda (and cocoa if using) until a thick dough forms.

4. Add the Meteor Mix: Fold in chocolate chips, crushed biscuits, and marshmallows. The dough should look chunky and uneven like a rocky meteor!

5. Shape and Bake: Drop rough spoonfuls of dough onto the tray – no need to smooth them. The bumpier the better!

6. Bake for 10–12 minutes or until golden around the edges but still soft in the middle.

7. Cool and Enjoy: Let cool slightly before moving to a rack. The marshmallow and chocolate will create gooey “craters.”
