Description
These hot chocolate cookies combine rich chocolate flavor with gooey marshmallows.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
- 12 oz chocolate chips
- 1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 1/4 cups brown sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 24 large marshmallows
- 1 large chocolate bar
Instructions
- Melt together the butter and chocolate chips in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Set aside and let cool for about 15 minutes.
- In a large bowl combine the dry ingredients (flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt), whisk them together, and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl cream together the brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
- Add the slightly cooled, melted chocolate mixture to the egg mixture and stir until combined.
- Slowly add in the dry ingredients while stirring until mixed.
- Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking pan with parchment paper.
- Roll the dough into 1 1/2 -2 inch cookie dough balls and place onto the prepared baking sheet, at least a couple inches apart.
- Bake for 10 minutes, until the cookies start to crack.
- Meanwhile, cut the marshmallows in half and cut the chocolate into 1/2 inch pieces.
- Remove the cookie sheet from the oven and top each cookie with a piece of chocolate and then half a marshmallow (sticky side down). Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the marshmallow is puffed and gooey.
- Remove from the pan and let the cookies cool on the pan for about 5 minutes.
- Transfer to a cooling rack to cool longer, or eat the cookies warm.
Notes
- Chill the dough for better texture.
- Use different types of chocolate for variety.
- Store cookies in an airtight container.
