Cook taking sort of utensil for warming marshmallows? (8,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

toasting fork

'utensil for warming marshmallows?' is the definition.

'cook taking sort of' is the wordplay.
'cook' indicates anagramming the letters.
'taking'+'sort'+'of'='takingsortof'
'takingsortof' is an anagram of 'TOASTING-FORK'.

(Other definitions for toasting fork that I've seen before include "for getting brown" , "Which holds bread close to a fire" , "Device used for cooking over an open fire" , "Cooking utensil" , "which could result in hot bread" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
