But if you want you could add ¾ cup of chocolate chips or chocolate chunks.įor ingredient quantities please reference the recipe card below. We chose not to add any chocolate chips to this recipe to keep the cookies simple and focused on the marshmallows. I found it easier than one big marshmallow but I am sure you could make those work if that is all you had. I used about ⅚ mini marshmallows in each cookie. Trust me when I say that the espresso powder enhances the chocolate flavor, it does not make the cookies taste like espresso. Adding cornstarch to your cookie dough helps create a soft and tender cookie. Salt enhances all the other ingredients' flavor profiles, don't skip it!
