Ingredients
  

For the cookie base
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
For the marshmallow swirl
  • 2 cups mini marshmallows Or regular marshmallows cut into smaller pieces
  • 1 tablespoon softened butter Or non-stick spray for baking sheets

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Combine dry ingredients: flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, cream together butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
Combine Ingredients
  1. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  2. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes.
Baking
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Scoop portions of dough onto prepared baking sheets, leaving space for expansion.
  3. Bake for 8-10 minutes. Just before cookies are fully baked, place a small cluster of marshmallows on top.
  4. Return cookies to the oven for another 2-3 minutes, until marshmallows are puffed and slightly golden.
Finishing Touches
  1. Remove from the oven and gently swirl the melted marshmallows into the cookie base using a spoon or spatula.
  2. Allow to cool slightly before enjoying your cookies.

Notes

Store cooled cookies in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days or freeze for up to 2 months. Serve slightly warm for the best texture. Customize with different chocolates or extracts for variation.
