Rocky Road Cookies

Justus loves rocky road ice cream, so I thought we'd try a cookie version. Tastes more like a brownie, but it's definitely rocky road flavored. In fact, we thought next time we would try baking it as brownies. Maybe with a little less flour, though. Or add water.

Ingredients:
2 cups chocolate chips (we used semi sweet)
1 stick butter
2 eggs
2/3 cup sugar
1 1/2 t. Vanilla
3/4 cup flour
1/4 c. Cocoa
1 heaping t. Baking powder
1/4 t. Salt
1-2 cups chopped walnuts
1/2 cup mini marshmallows

Directions:
Melt butter and chocolate chips. Let cool. Beat eggs, sugar and vanilla. Add dry ingredients and mix. Stir in walnuts. Drop by tablespoon full onto greased cookie sheet. Push a couple of marshmallows gently into the top of each cookie.
Bake for 10 minutes at 325.
