Marshmallow Magic: Don't overheat marshmallows - they can become tough if cooked too long.
Dough Temperature: Chill dough for 30 minutes if too sticky to handle easily.
Swirl Technique: Less is more - gentle swirls create better marbled appearance than over-mixing.
Baking Time: Slightly underbake for gooey centers - cookies continue cooking on hot pan.
Storage Success: Layer cookies between parchment paper to prevent marshmallow sticking.
Chocolate Quality: Use high-quality cocoa powder and chocolate for richest flavor results.
