Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°. Line cookie sheets with foil (NOT parchment).
In a small glass bowl, microwave the 1 1/3 cups of chocolate chips and 3/4 cup butter for 1 minute. Stir and then microwave for 30 more seconds. Stir until smooth. If necessary, microwave for another 15 seconds and stir again. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, sugar, hot chocolate mix and vanilla for 2-3 minutes. Add the chocolate/butter mixture and mix just until well combined.
In a small bowl, mix together the salt, baking powder and flour. Add flour mixture to the chocolate mixture and mix just until combined.
Mix in the cup of chocolate chips and almonds. Use a large cookie/muffin scoop (about 1/4 cup) to scoop cookies onto foil lined cookie sheets. Bake for 10 minutes and then remove from the oven to press about 8-10 marshmallows gently onto the top of each cookie. Return to the oven for about 2-3 minutes. The marshmallows should be slightly toasted but not melted. Place the foil on a wire rack and then when the cookies are completely cooled, use a spatula to get the cookies off of the foil.
