Dear Rocky Road, twice I have mixed you in a cookie and twice you have stuck it to me with your weepy-n-seepy melted marshmallow pools. Now, Dear Rocky Road, I got you—and, I got you good. Your marshmallows and salted almonds are now perfectly suspended in dark chocolate for a 3 ingredient, sweet and salty, recipe that took only 20 minutes to make from start to finish.

Remember this Rocky Road Cookie flop. I tried again and froze the marshmallows as suggested to no avail. The marshmallows inside, melted into the cookie dough and the ones on top created a weepy pool once more. Ready to give up on rocky road, I decided—no. Seldom do I ever give up on anything and I’m certainly not going to let a few marshmallows beat me.
