Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1/2 cup chopped almonds or walnuts
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and well combined.
- In a separate large mixing bowl, beat the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined and slightly fluffy.
- Add the melted chocolate mixture to the sugar and egg mixture, and mix until well combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the mini marshmallows and chopped almonds or walnuts.
- Drop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are slightly cracked.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, store in an airtight container and enjoy!
