Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until blended.
  3. In a large bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated into the mixture.
  5. Gradually add the flour mixture, mixing on low until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips and mini marshmallows gently with a spatula.
  7. Using a cookie scoop, place rounded dollops of dough onto prepared baking sheets, leaving space for spreading.
  8. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until edges are set and centers remain soft.
  9. Remove from the oven and let cool on the sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
