Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.33 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chunks
- 0.75 cup Mini marshmallows
- 0.5 cup Chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or almonds)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chunks, mini marshmallows, and chopped nuts.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 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 sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
Serve and enjoy these indulgent rocky road cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
