Despite my love of peanut butter, I oddly don’t make peanut butter based cookies that often. But maybe that’s how something incredible like these peanut butter marshmallow fluff cookies come into existence, by saving up the goodness for one that just has to be made.

Because you’re going to want to make these, especially if you love fluffernutter. Double the recipe while you are at it.

I made these peanut butter marshmallow fluff cookies for a coworker/friend’s birthday (along with the orange-lavender white chocolate chip cookies) and they were a raving success. With their incredibly chewy texture I have to agree with the masses!

What makes these cookies different than every other peanut butter cookie is the visible streaks of marshmallow fluff in the dough. Not to be confused with the fluffernutter sandwich cookies.

What you need to make Peanut Butter Marshmallow Fluff Cookies:

  • All-purpose flour
  • Baking soda
  • Salt
  • Unsalted butter
  • Creamy peanut butter
  • Brown and white sugar
  • Egg
  • Vanilla extract
  • Marshmallow fluff/creme

How does one get these beautiful streaks of marshmallow fluff? Honestly, you literally have to resist the urge to fully mix the marshmallow fluff into the cookie dough – just fold it in until distributed but still visible.

I recommend mixing less than you think necessary as it will get a little more mixed as you scoop the dough into balls.

Once you have your balls of prettily streaked peanut butter marshmallow fluff cookie dough, chill for at least 30 minutes but preferably overnight if you have time.

Chilling the cookie dough not only results in better texture and less spreading but also flavor. As the dough chills the dry ingredient soak up moisture from the wet ingredients, concentrating and marrying the flavors.
