Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chopped nuts (such as almonds or peanuts)
- 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes using a hand or stand mixer.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure the cookies remain soft.
Fold in the chopped nuts, shredded coconut, and chocolate chips with a spatula or wooden spoon.
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of dough at a time and form into balls. Flatten slightly with the palm of your hand and place on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Press a few mini marshmallows lightly into the top of each dough ball, ensuring they are slightly embedded.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still slightly soft.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the Chocolate Mountain Bar Cookies warm or at room temperature and enjoy!
