Hot Chocolate Cookies

Original Recipe click HERE. Got recipe from Kelly Phillips. Left out for Santa Christmas of 2014.

Ingredients:

1 cup butter, room temperature

1 cup granulated sugar

2/3 cups brown sugar

2 eggs

1 t. vanilla extract

3 1/4 cups all purpose flour

4 packages (or 1/2 cup plus 3 T.) Hot Chocolate Mix (store bought or homemade)

1 1/4 t. baking soda

1 t. salt

1 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips

2 cups mini marshmallows

Instructions:

Preheat over to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then blend in the vanilla.

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, hot chocolate mix, and baking soda and salt. Slowly add to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed. Fold in the chocolate chips.

Drop dough balls onto the prepared cookie sheets and bake for 7 minutes. Remove the cookies from the oven. Working quickly, carefully add about 5-7 mini marshmallows to the top of each cookie and gently press. Return to the oven and bake an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the marshmallows start to puff. Remove from the oven and let cook on the cookie sheets for 10 minutes before removing. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
