Hot Cocoa Cookies

I finally honed in and made this recipe! 

These cookies are basically chocolate chocolate-chip cookies, with marshmallows. 

Ingredients:

2 sticks butter (room temp)

1 c packed brown sugar 

.5 c granulated sugar

2 tbsp heavy cream

2 tbsp nonfat dry milk

1 ish tsp vanilla!

2 eggs (separate)

2.25 c flour

.5 c Dutch cocoa

1 tbsp corn starch 

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp salt

1.5 cups milk chips

.5 c freeze dried mini marshmallows (I use Anthony’s from Amazon)


Directions: 

Preheat oven to 350* F. Line your cookie sheet with parchment. 

Cream butter and sugars together. Scrape sides, beat again briefly. Add heavy cream and dry milk and vanilla and mix in.

Beat one egg and mix in thoroughly scraping bowl if needed.

Mix dry ingredients(not the chips or marshmallow yet) together and add to butter mixture. Mix in slowly. Add egg right before it’s all mixed in. Then add chips/marshymallows. 

Use a dough scoop and roll the dough in a few extra marshmallows if desired. Pat down slightly on cookie sheet. I fit 20 small cookies on my 2/3 pan. I’d probably get 12-15 on a standard cookie sheet. You can obviously make them larger if desired.

Bake for 14 minutes or until the centers are just barely set. Let set on the pan for about 5 minutes and then put them on cooling rack to cook the rest of the way. Enjoy!
