Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
- Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and mini marshmallows using a spatula. If desired, fold in the chopped nuts.
- Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the dough to an airtight container.
- Refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for enhanced flavor.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto a prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten slightly with the back of a spoon.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. The cookies will look slightly underbaked in the center.
- Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For an extra touch, drizzle melted chocolate over the cooled cookies.
- Serve warm with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
- To freeze, place cookies in a single layer on a baking sheet until solid, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag or container. They can be frozen for up to 3 months.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, consider using dark chocolate chips.
- Feel free to customize with your favorite mix-ins, such as dried fruit or different types of nuts.
