Hot Cocoa Cookies
Hot cocoa is warm and comforting on a cold winter day. One of my favorite ways to relax in the cold months. There's nothing really more soothing than wrapping yourself in a cuddly blanket and sipping on a big hot mug of hot cocoa. Until now!
These Hot Cocoa Cookies replicate that delightful taste and feeling of a warm cup of hot cocoa on a chilly day. Warm, gooey, and rich chocolate cookies made with hot cocoa mix and filled and topped with toasted, gooey, and sticky marshmallows. Heaven on a baking sheet.

- ¾ cup about 4 envelopes milk chocolate hot cocoa mix
- 1 ¼ teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

- Chill dough for about one hour.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a greased cookie sheett, 2 inches apart.
