- Sugar½ cups
- Egg1
- Vanilla1 ½ tsp
- Flour2 ¾ cups
- Cornstarch1 tbsp
- Baking soda1 tsp
- Salt1 tsp

- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set it aside.
- Spread the cornflakes evenly on a baking sheet and bake on the center rack for 10-15 minutes, checking and stirring every 5 minutes, until toasted and slightly darkened. Watch closely after 10 minutes as they can burn quickly. Set aside to cool.
- In a large bowl, cream the butter and both sugars with an electric mixer.
- Beat in the egg, egg yolk and vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt.
- Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture gradually, mixing thoroughly after each addition until fully combined.
- Fold in the toasted cornflakes and mini marshmallows with a spatula until evenly distributed.
- Scoop 2-tablespoon portions (40 g) of dough, roll each gently between your palms into a smooth ball, and place them on the baking sheet at least 2 inches (5 cm) apart.
- Bake on the center rack at 350°F (175°C) for 10-11 minutes, until the edges just turn light golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheet.
