Ingredients
  

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup cocoa powder (preferably Dutch-processed)

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 cup mini marshmallows

Optional: extra cocoa powder for dusting

Instructions
 

Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 350F (180C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

    Cream the butter and sugars: In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer on medium speed to beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

      Add eggs and vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.

        Combine dry ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly mixed.

          Mix wet and dry ingredients: Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the butter mixture until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix.

            Incorporate chocolate chips and marshmallows: Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and mini marshmallows until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

              Scoop the dough: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

                Bake the cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set but the centers are soft and slightly underbaked.

                  Cool the cookies: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

                    Optional finishing touch: For an extra touch, dust the cookies lightly with cocoa powder once they are cool, if desired.
