Equipment

Ingredients

1½ cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter
1½ cups brown sugar
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla
mini marshmallows

Topping:

1/4 cup granulated sugar

Instructions

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl or the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the butter and brown sugar on medium speed until fluffy, about 1-2 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
Slowly mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until a dough forms.
Scoop 2 tablespoons of dough, roll into a ball, and flatten slightly. Place 4 mini marshmallows in the center. Fold the dough around the marshmallows, sealing any gaps to keep them inside.
Refrigerate the stuffed dough balls for at least 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Roll each chilled dough ball in granulated sugar and place on a baking tray, spacing them 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges begin to lift from the tray. Let cool on the tray for 5 minutes before serving.
