More helpful tips for you.

1. The first step (melting) can be done using the double boiler method. Just make sure that you are stirring constantly for a smooth melt.
2. The melted ingredients should be sufficiently cooled down before adding them to the other ingredients. If these ingredients are too warm you can risk melting the marshmallows and chocolate chips.
3. Take your cookies up a notch. You can add sprinkles on top, stir in coconut or nuts, or even drizzle melted chocolate over your cookies.

How to store Avalanche Cookies.

Once the cookies have fully set, they can be stored at room temperature for up to four days. I would not refrigerate the cookies as doing so will make them less chewy. You can however freeze them in an air tight container for up to three months (let them thaw at room temperature). .
