Preheat your oven to 175Β°C (350Β°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Take about 1 tablespoon of dough and flatten it slightly in your palm. Place one mini marshmallow in the center, fold the dough around it, and roll into a ball to fully encase the marshmallow. Repeat with the remaining dough and marshmallows.
Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm for a gooey marshmallow center or store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
