Holiday baking season has arrived and I couldn’t be happier. ⁣These Healthy Hot Chocolate Cookies taste so much better than a cup of hot cocoa (even though I do still love some on a super cold day, cue my Dairy Free Mexican Hot Chocolate).

The only downside to these cookies is that you’ll have to find another way to keep your hands warm—I believe in you (psst there are some amazing cozy options in my Best 2020 Healthier Gift Guide, like an amazing buttery soft kimono!).

The best part of the Healthy Hot Chocolate Cookies is the AMAZING texture!

These cookies are so chewy, and the marshmallow gives them heavenly crispy edges (bonus points when the marshmallow melts out a little and then you get a candied mallow crust!). They’re definitely a new favorite and the fact that they’re also grain free, dairy free and packed with protein makes them even better.

The dark chocolate chips and marshmallows are the star of this show when it comes to the chewy texture. You may be asking yourself: how can chocolate and marshmallows be part of a Healthy Hot Chocolate Cookie? Well, let me tell you. Dark chocolate has a lot of great health benefits, like being rich in antioxidants and aiding in the improvement of brain function. If you take my advice on the marshmallows and make my gut-healing recipe from Healthier Together, you can also decrease inflammation and help your digestive system—yes, all while eating cookies!

Here’s to wishing that holiday baking season never ended.

I hope you’re not sick of holiday baking, because these might be the best cookies I’ve ever made.
