Nabisco Mallomars Chocolate Cookies
What it is
These are unique cookies featuring a soft, marshmallow-like center covered in a rich chocolate coating. The combination of textures and flavors creates a distinctive treat. They are often enjoyed as a sweet indulgence. The cookie base provides a slight crispness that contrasts with the soft filling and smooth chocolate.
How people cook with it
Mallomars are a delightful standalone snack. They can also be incorporated into simple dessert preparations.
- Enjoy with coffee or tea
- Serve as a simple dessert
- Add to a cookie platter
- Incorporate into no-bake desserts
These cookies are best enjoyed as they are, straight from the package. Their unique composition makes them ideal for a quick and satisfying treat. For a slightly different experience, you can gently warm them for a few seconds to soften the chocolate coating, though this is not typically necessary. They can also be crumbled and used as a topping for ice cream or yogurt, or layered into simple parfaits.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike many chocolate-covered cookies that have a crunchy biscuit base, Mallomars are distinguished by their soft, airy marshmallow center. This creates a chewier, more yielding bite. The chocolate coating is also a key characteristic, providing a distinct flavor profile.

How to keep the rest
To maintain their freshness and texture, store any remaining Mallomars in their original packaging in a cool, dry place. Ensure the package is sealed tightly to prevent the marshmallow from drying out or the chocolate from becoming stale. Avoid storing them in humid conditions.
