Ingredients

1 ¼ cups butter softened
1 cup granulated sugar
⅔ cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
3 ¼ cups flour
4 packets instant hot cocoa (OR 1/2 cup hot cocoa mix) NOT sugar-free
1¼ tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
24 large marshmallows Cut in half.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350° and grease two mini muffin pans (the recipe makes about 48 cookie cups).
Beat butter and sugars in large bowl until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes). Add eggs and vanilla and mix for another 2-3 minutes.
Combine flour, hot cocoa mix, baking soda and baking powder in a separate bowl.
Gradually beat the dry mixture into the butter mixture until well blended.
Use a small cookie scoop to place the dough into a mini muffin pan and then bake for about 9-10 minutes. Cut the large marshmallows in half and lightly press each half into the baked cookie cups to make the indentations. Bake for another 1-2 minutes so the marshmallow can slightly melt.
Let the cookie cups cool for about 10-15 minutes before removing and placing on wire racks to cool completely. Although I actually prefer to eat them warm. So maybe don't cool them all the way before devouring. 😉
