Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons (1.5oz) unsalted butter
  • 1 cup (6oz) semi-sweet chocolate chips divided
  • 1/3 cup + 1 heaping tablespoon (85g) brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup (70g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon (10g) cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 24 mini marshmallows
  • Finely chopped chocolate for topping optional

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, melt butter and 2/3 cup of the chocolate chips together in the microwave. Heat for 30 seconds and stir. Then continue in 15-second bursts, stirring in between until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly for about five minutes.
  • Mix brown sugar, egg, and vanilla in a large bowl until just combined. Beat in the cooled chocolate mixture.
  • Mix in flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt, until just combined.
  • Cover and chill for 45 minutes until the dough is firm enough to handle.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees Grease or cover two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  • Scoop dough and roll into 1-inch balls. Place them on the baking trays 2-inches apart.
  • Bake for 7 minutes before removing the cookies from the oven. Place 2-3 chocolate chips in the center of each cookie and top with a mini marshmallow. Press the marshmallow firmly into the chocolate and place the tray back into the oven.
  • Bake cookies for an additional 4 minutes and remove pan from the oven. While the cookies are still hot, sprinkle with chopped chocolate, if so desired.
