In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, hot cocoa mix, baking powder, and salt. Add the dry mixture to the wet and use an electric mixer to blend together. Note: the dough will be very thick.

Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350F. Cover baking sheets with parchment paper.
Scoop the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, making 1 ½ inch dough balls. Leave at least 1 inch of space between each dough ball.

Cool the cookies on the baking sheets for 3-5 minutes, then use a spatula to move to a wire cooling rack to finish cooling.
