Here we go with the recipe.
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup milk chocolate chips divided
- 10 full size marshmallows cut in half across the middle or tiny marshmallows
- ½ cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup Navitas
cacoaOrganics Cacao Powder - 1 cup cake flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2: In a separate bowl, combine the cocoa cacao powder, flour, baking soda and salt. Using a hand mixer, or stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar for 2-3 minutes, until light and fluffy. Add the the egg and vanilla extract and beat to combine, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary.
Step 3 :With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined. Reserve ¼ cup chocolate chips for topping the dough balls, stir in the remaining ¾ cup chocolate chips.
Step 4: Scoop the dough into 1.5 tablespoon portions and place onto prepared cookie sheets. Press some of the reserved chocolate chips onto the tops of each dough ball.
Step 5: Bake for 7-8 minutes until the cookies begin to spread and still have a slight mound in the center. Remove them from the oven and gently press one half of a marshmallow onto the top of each cookie, giving them a slight flattening. Return them to the oven for an additional 1-2 minutes. The edges should seem nearly set, but with a touch of undercooked appearance – this is perfectly fine. Avoid baking them until they appear completely done; they should look slightly underdone when you take them out. Transfer the baking sheets to wire racks to let the cookies cool completely (they will become firmer as they cool). Once the baking sheets have cooled, you can repeat the process with the remaining cookie dough.
