Ingredients
- 1 cup butter softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 1/4 cups flour
- 4 packages or 3/4 cups hot cocoa mix – NOT SUGAR FREE VERSIONS
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup Mallow Bits mini marshmallows do not work the same and can be a bit of a sticky mess
Instructions
-
Beat butter and sugars in large bowl with standing mixer until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla; mix well.
-
In a separate bowl combine dry ingredients. Gradually beat dry ingredients into butter mixture until blended. Stir in chocolate chips. Cover and chill for 30 minutes – then add the Mallow Bits
-
When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Drop 2 tablespoons dough, 2 inches apart, onto baking sheets lined with silicone baking mats or parchment paper. Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool on baking sheets 5 minutes; remove to wire racks and cool.
Recipe Notes
*A simple hot cocoa mix works best with these. Flavored hot cocoa’s can have other ingredients that impact the recipe. I typically make this recipe with either Swiss Miss or Trader Joe’s Hot Chocolate. The Dark Chocolate Swiss Miss also works well. I have not tested it with other flavors or brands.
