Hot Cocoa Cookies with Marshmallows
Ingredients
For the cookies:
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened


1 cup brown sugar, packed


½ cup granulated sugar


2 large eggs


2 tsp vanilla extract


2 cups all-purpose flour


½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder


1 tsp baking soda


½ tsp salt


1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips


For topping:
About 12 large marshmallows (cut in half) or 24 mini marshmallows


Optional: melted chocolate, crushed candy canes, or sprinkles for drizzling/decorating



Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.


Cream butter and sugars together until light and fluffy.


Add eggs and vanilla, mix until smooth.


Whisk dry ingredients (flour, cocoa, baking soda, salt) in another bowl. Add to wet ingredients and mix until just combined.


Fold in chocolate chips.


Scoop dough (about 2 tbsp per cookie) onto baking sheet, leaving space between them.


Bake 8–9 minutes, then remove tray.


Press half a marshmallow into the center of each cookie.


Return to oven for 2–3 minutes — just until the marshmallows puff slightly.


Cool 5–10 minutes, then drizzle with melted chocolate and sprinkle candy cane crumbs or festive sprinkles on top.



Tips
🎁 Let cookies cool completely before storing.
🍫 For extra chocolatey flavor, drizzle both dark and white chocolate.
🎄 These look amazing in Christmas cookie boxes or dessert trays!
