Heat the oven to 200°C (180° fan) 400°F gas 6. Line 2 large baking trays with non-stick baking paper.
4.
Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface, about 5mm thick. Cut into 20 squares and place on the baking trays. Sprinkle with caster sugar.

Bake for 10 minutes until lightly golden. Place a marshmallow on 10 cookies and return to the oven for 1-2 minutes until the marshmallows have melted. Place a plain cookie on top of each marshmallow cookie.

Cool on the baking trays for a few minutes, then place on a wire rack to cool completely.
