  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the butter mixture. Fold in chocolate chips.
  3. Using a cookie scoop, drop the dough onto a lined baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  4. Bake for 12 minutes, allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 3-5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack.
  5. Microwave the mini marshmallows for 45 seconds until melted, stirring until smooth.
  6. Pinch off small amounts of melted marshmallows and stretch them over each cookie to create a spider web design.
