HOT COCOA COOKIES

Ingredients
1¼ cups butter softened
1 cup granulated sugar
⅔ cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
3¼ cups flour
4 packets instant hot cocoa NOT sugar-free OR 1/2 cup hot cocoa mix
1¼ tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips you can use the holiday variety just for fun if you’d like!
1 cup Jet-Puffed Vanilla Mallow Bits
1 cup crushed candy canes
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°.
Beat butter and sugars in large bowl until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla, mix well.
Combine flour, hot cocoa mix, baking soda and baking powder in separate bowl.
Gradually beat the dry mixture into the butter mixture until well blended. Stir in chocolate chips, Mallow Bits and crushed candy canes.
Drop onto baking sheets and bake 9-11 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Since the cookies are brown to begin with, you have to be extra careful not to cook them too long! Let the cookies cool for a few minutes on the cookie sheets before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
