Hot Cocoa Cookies

So delicious that Professor Kropp ate the left-overs for breakfast!

8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter
12 ounces (2 cups) semi-sweet chocolate chips,
1 cup brown sugar, packed
3 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup (about 2 packets) hot cocoa mix
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
18 large marshmallows, cut in half

In a small saucepan, melt together butter and chocolate chips over low heat. Stir until smooth and set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, beat together brown sugar and eggs. Add vanilla extract. Slowly incorporate flour, hot cocoa mix, baking powder, and salt. Mix in melted chocolate. Refrigerate cookie dough for 1 hour to solidify.

Bake for 12 minutes at 325

Pull cookies out from oven and press one marshmallow half down on top of each cookie. Bake cookies for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until marshmallows are softened.
