Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.
In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat shortening and sugars at medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add eggs and vanilla; beat until combined. Add flour mixture, about 1/2 cup at a time, mixing until well incorporated, scraping sides as needed. Stir in chocolate chips and walnuts.
Use a medium cookie scoop to drop 2 tablespoon balls of dough onto cookie sheet. Bake for 9 minutes.
Remove from oven; top cookies with marshmallow halves. Return to oven for 2-3 minutes. Remove from oven; allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
Repeat steps 6-7 to bake remaining cookies.
Chocolate Drizzle:
In a microwave safe bowl, melt chocolate chips in 30 second intervals, stirring between intervals. Stir in shortening to smooth out the melted chocolate and allow for easier drizzling.
Drizzle chocolate over cooled cookies, then top with walnut pieces.
