Description
A rich and warm cookie infused with hot cocoa flavors and a delightful marshmallow surprise.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup mini marshmallows
Instructions
- Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until fully combined.
- Beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, mixing until well incorporated.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
- Chill the dough for at least 15 minutes in the refrigerator.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Scoop a tablespoon of chilled dough and flatten it in your palm. Place a mini marshmallow in the center and mold the dough around it, shaping it back into a ball.
- Place the dough balls onto a lined baking sheet, spacing them about two inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
