Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Beat white sugar, margarine, and brown sugar together in a bowl using an electric mixer until creamy. Add egg white and vanilla extract; mix until well blended.

Step 3

Combine flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl. Add flour mixture to the sugar mixture gradually, using a wooden spoon to work the dough together. Stir in chocolate chips and pecans.

Step 4

Drop dough by the teaspoonful onto a baking sheet. Smoosh cookies down a little and make an indentation in the middle of each one. Place a small spoonful of marshmallow cream into the indentations.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute; transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
