    List of Ingredients




    1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
    1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
    1/2 cup granulated sugar
    2 eggs
    1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla
    1 tablespoon instant coffee granules
    1 tablespoon hot water
    1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour*
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2-1/2 cups Quaker oats (quick or old fashioned, uncooked)
    1-1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
    1-1/2 cups coarsely chopped toasted walnuts
    1-1/2 cups miniature marshmallows

    * For old fashioned oats, add 2 tablespoons additional flour.

    Recipe



    Heat oven to 350ºF. Spray cookie sheets with cooking spray.

    In large bowl, beat butter and sugars with electric mixer until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla; beat well. Dissolve coffee granules in hot water. Add to butter mixture; mix well. Add combined flour, baking soda and salt; mix well. Stir in oats, chocolate chips and walnuts.

    To shape cookies, flatten 1 heaping tablespoon of dough in palm of hand. Arrange 4 marshmallows in center; wrap dough around marshmallows to completely cover. Repeat with remaining dough and marshmallows. Space cookies 2 inches apart on cookie sheets.

    Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until edges are golden brown. (Do not overbake; centers of cookies should be soft.) Let stand 2 minutes on cookie sheets; remove to wire racks. Cool completely. Store tightly covered.

    MAKES ABOUT 3 DOZEN.
