**Sesame Street Cookie Monster Cookie**
**Ingredients:**
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar
– 1/4 cup brown sugar
– 1 egg
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– Blue gel food coloring
– 1/2 cup chocolate chips
– 24 small candy eyes
– 12 large marshmallows
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
3. In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
4. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix until combined.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until a cookie dough forms.
6. Add a few drops of blue gel food coloring to the dough and mix until the color is evenly distributed. Add more coloring as needed to achieve the desired Cookie Monster blue shade.
7. Gently fold in the chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
8. Using a cookie scoop or spoon, scoop out about 2 tablespoons of dough and roll it into a ball. Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them a few inches apart.
9. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove from the oven and immediately press two candy eyes into the center of each cookie.
10. To create Cookie Monster’s mouth, cut each marshmallow in half with kitchen scissors. Then, cut each half into a curved shape for the mouth. Press the marshmallow mouth onto the cookie while it is still warm.
11. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
12. Enjoy your adorable and delicious Sesame Street Cookie Monster Cookies with a glass of milk or share them with friends and family for a delightful treat that is as fun to eat as it is to make!
