### Instructions
#### Step 1: Prepare the Dough
1. Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the cold butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using a stand mixer or hand mixer. Mix until well combined and fluffy.
3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition.
#### Step 2: Add Dry Ingredients
1. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
2. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
#### Step 3: Fold in the Mix-Ins
1. Gently fold in the chocolate chips, mini marshmallows, and chopped nuts. Be careful not to overmix to preserve the gooey texture of the marshmallows.
#### Step 4: Form and Bake the Cookies
1. Using a large cookie scoop or your hands, form the dough into 2-inch balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving enough space for spreading.
2. Bake for 9-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers remain soft. The marshmallows may melt slightly, creating gooey pockets of sweetness.
3. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

### Tips for Success
– **Use Cold Butter**: This is key to achieving the thick, bakery-style texture Levain cookies are known for.
– **Donβt Overbake**: The cookies will continue to set as they cool, so take them out of the oven while the centers are still soft.
– **Customize Your Add-Ins**: Swap walnuts for pecans, almonds, or even hazelnuts, and experiment with different types of chocolate chips.

### Serving Suggestions
These cookies are best enjoyed warm, straight from the oven or reheated slightly in the microwave for that gooey, fresh-baked texture. Pair them with a cold glass of milk or a hot cup of coffee for the ultimate treat.
