Ingredients

Instructions

  • Before getting started, pre-heat your oven to 350ºF and line 2 13x9 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Start by whisking together the flour, baking powder, salt and hot cocoa mix in a large mixing bowl.
  • In another large bowl, cream together the brown sugar and butter until well combined and fluffy. I like to use my electric stand mixer with a paddle attachment for this step.
  • Next, add the egg and vanilla extract, beating 'til well combined.
  • Then gradually add the dry mixture a little bit at a time, beating 'til well combined in between each addition.
  • Finally, use a spatula to fold in the chocolate chips and marshmallow bits 'til they're evenly dispersed all throughout the cookie dough.
  • Now that your cookie dough is all mixed up, use a tablespoon or cookie dough scoop to scoop the dough out evenly onto the baking sheets that you prepared in the first step.
  • Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes, or 'til firm and a toothpick inserted into the center of one of the cookies comes out clean. The middle should also be soft and puffy, and it should spring back when lightly pressed into.
  • That's it! Serve and enjoy!

Notes

What's the best way to store hot cocoa cookies?
