Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup flour
- 1/3 cup hot cocoa mix
- 2 Tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon instant coffee (optional - helps intensify the chocolate flavor)
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup mini marshmallows*
Instructions
- Place the mini marshmallows in the freezer.
- Preheat oven to 350ºF.
- Cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and smooth.
- Beat in egg and vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, combine flour, hot cocoa mix, cocoa powder, instant coffee, baking soda and salt.
- Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, and combine well.
- Scoop 2 tablespoons of dough into a ball and make a well in the center.
- Place 2-3 mini marshmallows in well, and top with another tablespoon of cookie dough, pressing edges together to seal marshmallows inside as much as possible.
- Continue with the remaining dough, spacing on a parchment-lined baking sheet with about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
- Bake for 10 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, and allow to cool on a baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack or plate to cool completely.
- Enjoy!
Notes
*Freezing the marshmallows isn’t 100% necessary, but it helps keep them from melting into the cookie as they bake.
