  • 1 teaspoon salt

Method
 

Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, beat softened butter and sugars until light and fluffy, then mix in eggs and vanilla until well combined.
  2. Combine dry ingredients in a separate bowl, then gradually beat them into the butter mixture until blended. Stir in chocolate chips and Mallow Bits, then cover and chill the dough for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Drop 2 tablespoon portions of dough onto lined baking sheets and bake for 9-11 minutes until edges are lightly browned. Cool cookies on baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.

Notes

Make sure to use Mallow Bits, as mini marshmallows can become sticky. Do not use sugar-free hot cocoa mix for best results.
