Instructions
In a large bowl using an electric mixer or in a bowl of a stand mixer cream together softened Butter, Granulated Sugar, and Brown Sugar.

Gradually add dry ingredients of All Purpose Flour, Chocolate Fudge Pudding, Cocoa Powder, Baking Soda, and Salt to the butter mixture until just combined. Do not over-mix.
Hand stir the Chocolate Chips, Marshmallows, and chopped Almonds into the cookie dough.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350F Degrees. Prepare 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Using a medium size #24 Cookie Scoop place cookie dough on the baking sheet at least 2 inches apart. Press each cookie dough ball flat making with the palm of your hand.
Press additional marshmallows, chocolate chips, and chopped almonds into the top of the cookies (optional).
Bake at 350 F Degrees for 9-11 minutes or until edges are set and the center is no longer glossy. Do not overbake.
Allow cookies to cool for at least 5 minutes on the hot tray before moving them to a wire rack to finish cooling.
Once cookies are fully cooled, store cooled cookies in an airtight container or a Ziploc Bag.
