Layer the ingredients in the jar as listed above starting with the flour, baking powder, cocoa powder, sugar, marshmallows and then chocolate chips - make sure to press firmly with a flat bottomed object after each addition; make the layers as level as possible.

Secure the lid and decorate as desired; attach the instructions for making these cookies found below.

Preheat oven to 375.

In a large bowl, combine the milk, butter and egg. Add the contents of the jar, and stir until just mixed; do not overstir. Spoon the batter into greased or papered muffin tins, filling each cup two-thirds full.

Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes in the tin, then transfer to a wire rack and cool completely. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
