Hot Chocolate Cookies
These hot chocolate cookies are the perfect cozy cookie to bake. They remind me of hot chocolate! These cookies are chewy, gooey, cookies full of cocoa and marshmallows. They are so good!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips or semi-sweet
- 3/4 cups white sugar
- 2 eggs room temperature
- 1 tbsp vanilla
- 2 tbsp hot chocolate mix
- 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/3 cup marshmallow fluff
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C and line two baking trays with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Melt the butter over low heat. Then, in a large bowl, whisk in the butter with the chocolate chips until smooth and glossy.1/2 cup unsalted butter, 1 cup dark chocolate chips

- Take marshmallow fluff and drop 4-5 tablespoon's of it into the cookie dough. Then take a butterknife and swirl it into the dough a few times. Don't overswirl, we want marshmallow fluff to show in the cookies!1/3 cup marshmallow fluff
- Using a 2 oz cookie scooper, scoop 6 cookies onto the baking tray, spaced 2-3 inches apart from one another.
- Bake the cookies for 10-14 minutes. The edges will be slightly cracked, and the middle will still look fudgy.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking tray. The heat from the tray allows the cookies to continue to bake after they've been taken out of the oven.
- If your cookies are uneven and not circular, grab a bowl and gently swirl the cookies around. You can also take a spoon and gently press the edges in.
- Enjoy!
