Instructions

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.
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.
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.
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.
Bake 13 to 16 minutes. Cool cookies on pans 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to wire rack to cool completely.
