MARSHMALLOW CLOUDS 
3 c. flour
2/3 c. unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 c. sugar
1 c. light brown sugar
1 c. salted butter, softened
2 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
2 c. (12 oz.) miniature semi-sweet chocolate chips
8 oz. miniature marshmallows, frozen

Combine flour, cocoa and baking soda in medium bowl and set aside.

Combine sugars in large bowl. Blend in butter with electric mixer, scraping down sides of bowl. Add eggs and vanilla and beat at medium speed until light and fluffy.

Add flour mixture and chocolate chips and blend at low speed until combined. Batter will be stiff.

Gather 4 to 5 frozen marshmallows in palm of your hand and cover with heaping tablespoon of dough. Wrap dough around marshmallows, completely encasing them and form 2 inch diameter ball.

Place balls on ungreased baking sheets, 2 inches apart. Bake at 400 degrees for 20-22 minutes. Cool on pan 2 minutes, then transfer to cool flat surface. Makes 3 1/2 dozen.

Note: Keep marshmallows in freezer until you are ready to assemble cookies just prior to baking otherwise they will thaw too rapidly.
