Ingredients

1 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup hot chocolate mix
½ cup 1 stick unsalted butter, softened
½ cup brown sugar packed
1 egg room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup chocolate chips milk or semi-sweet
½ cup mallow bits

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and hot cocoa mix. Stir to combine.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and brown sugar until well combined and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla extract and beat until well combined.
Gradually add dry mixture and beat until well combined.
Stir in chocolate chips and mallow bits by hand. Do not use the mixer as it will break up the chips and marshmallows.
Scoop dough using a cookie dough scoop or tablespoon and place on prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are set. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Remove and place on a cooling rack and cool completely.
Enjoy!
