Hot Chocolate Cookie Bars are soft and chewy hot chocolate flavoured cookie bars filled with mini marshmallows for the ultimate comforting, late night treat!

So these happened…

And can I say I have eaten far too many of these hot chocolate cookie bars in the late hours of the night. These just something about the super chewy, slightly gooey, hot chocolate flavoured cookie bars that just makes me lose all self control!

These cookie bars are based off my Hot Chocolate Thumbprint Cookies. I fell in love with the texture and the unique flavour the hot chocolate powder brings that I knew I had to make something else with hot chocolate powder.

Que my cousin going on a kitchen cupboard cleaning spree and we found a tub of hot chocolate powder that was just about to expire in the back!

Talk about fated….

I used Cadbury’s Hot Chocolate powder but you could use any hot chocolate powder that you can get your hands on.

Beat in the flour, baking powder, baking soda and hot chocolate until well combined.
