Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups sugar
  • cups unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
  • 2 eggs, large
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup cocoa
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup Andes Crème De Menthe Baking Chips
  • 1 cup mint chocolate chips such as HERSHEY’S semi-sweet mint chocolate chips
  • 6 oz tiny marshmallow bits, 2 (3oz each) bottles
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar for dusting the tops

Instructions
 

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  • In large bowl beat sugar and softened butter until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes.
  • Beat in eggs and vanilla.
  • In separate bowl, combine flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to butter mixture; beating on low just until combined.
  • Stir in Andes baking chips, mint chocolate chips, and 1 cup marshmallow bits.
  • Roll dough into balls. Flatten balls lightly and press into bowl of marshmallow bits, pressing bits gently into dough so they stick when baked.
  • Place marshmallow side up on ungreased cookie sheet.
  • Bake 9 to 10 minutes. Do not overbake. The cookies will not look like they are done but they will puff up a little when baking and then they’ll drop when they are cooling. They are soft with a little crunch around the edges.
  • Cool 10 minutes. Transfer to cooling rack. When cookies are completely cool, dust with powdered sugar.
  • If eating within a day or two, keep uncovered – this allows the marshmallows on top to get a little crunchy. If you like the marshmallows soft, store in airtight container.
