Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 egg, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract.
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon espresso powder
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2/3 cup marshmallows
  • 2/3 cup peanuts, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips or chunks

Instructions

    1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
    2. Place the softened butter and brown sugar in a stand mixer fit with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium high speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes.
    3. Scrape down the sides of the bowl  and add the egg and vanilla extract. Mix until combined.
    4. Scrape down the bowl and add the cocoa powder, espresso powder, flour, baking soda and salt. Mix on low speed, gradually increasing to medium. Mix until just combined and no streaks of flour remain.
    5. Fold in the marshmallows, chocolate chunks and peanuts.
    6. Use a 2 ounce cookie scoop to drop the cookie dough onto your prepared cookie sheet 2 inches apart. Press a few extra marshmallows on top of each cookie.
    7. Bake at 350°F for 10 minutes or until the edges are set but the centers are still gooey. Allow to cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheet until set. Enjoy!
