INSTRUCTIONS

1 Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt in medium bowl. Set aside.
2 Beat brown sugar, granulated sugar and butter with an electric mixer (or in bowl of stand mixer) on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add oil, eggs, and vanilla; beat just until smooth. Gradually add flour mixture, mixing just until combined and scraping sides as needed. Let dough stand 10 minutes.
3 Using a cookie scoop or large spoon, scoop dough into 2-tablespoon portions. Roll each portion into a ball. Use thumbs to make a well in the center of each dough ball. Place about 6 mini marshmallows in well, then carefully pinch dough over to enclose marshmallows. Gently re-roll dough into balls.
4 Place Hot Cocoa Sugar in shallow bowl or dish. Roll cookie dough balls in Hot Cocoa Sugar until well coated. Place on prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
5 Bake 13 to 16 minutes. Cool cookies on pans 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to wire rack to cool completely.
