Boozy Hot Chocolate Cookies Recipe

Rich, chewy hot chocolate cookies spiked with your favorite liqueur and topped with gooey torched mini marshmallows.

📝 Ingredients

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
• 3/4 cup light brown sugar (packed)
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons coffee flavored liqueur, hazelnut liqueur, or bourbon
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• Pinch of salt
• Mini marshmallows
• Sea salt for garnish

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. 2In a mixer or large bowl, mix butter and sugars together. Add egg then stir in the liqueur. Add flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Mix until mixture is a wet dough-like consistency. Form dough balls using a cookie scoop and place on the baking sheet.
3. 3Bake for 10 minutes. Remove the cookies from the oven. They will be a little undercooked and that’s ok. They finish cooking as they cool.
4. 4Top each cookie with 3-4 (or more) mini marshmallows. Gently push them into the cookie so they melt a bit with the heat.
5. 5Place the cookies under a broiler for 30 seconds or slightly torch the marshmallows with a kitchen torch until they are nice and toasty. Transfer cookies to a plate to cool. Garnish with sea salt. Enjoy!
