Ingredients
Scale
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup marshmallow fluff
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it reaches the correct temperature for even baking.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter with the granulated sugar and brown sugar. Mix until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
- Add Eggs and Vanilla: Incorporate the eggs and vanilla extract into the peanut butter mixture, mixing thoroughly until fully combined.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt to evenly distribute the leavening agents and salt.
- Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined to avoid overmixing and keep the cookies tender.
- Fold in Marshmallow Fluff: Gently fold the marshmallow fluff into the dough, keeping as much air as possible to maintain a light texture in the final cookies.
- Portion Dough: Drop spoonfuls of the cookie dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them adequately to prevent sticking during baking.
- Bake Cookies: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden, ensuring a soft and chewy center.
- Cool Cookies: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely to set their shape and texture.
Notes
- Do not overmix the dough to keep cookies soft and chewy.
- Use parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking and promote even baking.
- Store cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness for up to a week.
- You can chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking to reduce spreading if desired.
