Preparation Steps

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper, set it aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, and 0.5 cup of granulated sugar together until fluffy (about 2-3 minutes with an electric mixer). Add in egg and vanilla extract and beat until incorporated.
• Add flour, hot chocolate mix, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt, just until a dough forms. Do not over mix.
• Use a 1.5- 2 tablespoon cookie scoop to scoop out 24 even sized scoops of dough. Roll into a ball then flatten into a disc. Place several inches apart on prepared cookie sheet. Top with about 5-6 mini marshmallows, then wrap the dough around the marshmallows, pinching the seams closed. Roll dough until smooth, then roll in remaining 0.25 cup of granulated sugar to coat them.
• Bake cookies for about 10-12 minutes, or until the tops have cracked and the marshmallows are visible. Remove from oven and cool on wire racks for about 15 minutes.
