To Make the Hot Chocolate Cookie Dough

In a heat-proof bowl, add the chopped chocolate and melt gently in the microwave or over a pot of simmering water (bain marie). Set aside to cool.
3
In a large bowl, sieve together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
4
Using a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment (or using a handheld electric mixer) cream the butter and brown sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about ⏱️ 3 minutes.
5
Whisk in your cooled melted chocolate. Add the egg and vanilla into the butter and sugar mixture and mix on medium speed until well combined.

Scoop using a rounded 1 tablespoon measure and place on your prepared trays leaving at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between each cookie.
10
Bake your cookies for ⏱️ 8 - 9 minutes one tray at a time. Take care not to over bake as you want these cookies to be almost brownie-like.
11
Once baked, pop a marshmallow on top of each cookie and put them back in the oven on broil for ⏱️ 1-2 minutes for a lovely toasted effect. Allow to cool completely before enjoying.

These cookies are best enjoyed fresh. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
