Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, combine tapioca starch, tigernut flour, gelatin, baking soda, ground ginger, and ground cinnamon. Whisk together until evenly blended.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix palm shortening, maple syrup, blackstrap molasses, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  3. Gradually incorporate the dry mixture into the wet mixture using a spatula. Mix until a cohesive dough forms.
  4. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.
  5. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Scoop tablespoon-sized portions and roll them into balls. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
  7. After cooling slightly, top half the cookies with marshmallows and chocolate. Broil for 1-2 minutes until marshmallows are puffy.
