  • Brown sugar – Using majority brown sugar will help the cookies stay super soft.
  • Granulated sugar
  • Egg
  • All-purpose flour

  • Baking soda
  • Marshmallow fluff – Don’t mix the marshmallow fluff completely into the dough- leave it swirled in there. Just mix in quick, short spurts.

How to Make Fluffernutter Cookies

  1. Preheat the oven to 350° F.
  2. Line your baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
  3. In the bowl of a stand mixer or with an electric hand mixer, cream together the butter, peanut butter, brown sugar and sugar until well combined. This will take approximately 2 minutes until it is the right texture. 
  4. Scrape the sides of the bowl and add in the egg. Mix until combined.
  5. Add the flour, baking soda and salt, mix until the sticky dough forms.
  6. Add the marshmallow fluff in a few separate dollops to the mixer bowl. Mix in short spurts until the marshmallow fluff is marbled through the cookie dough.
  7. Scoop out the dough in 1 1/2 tbsp portions (#40 scoop) and arrange on a parchment lined cookie sheet.
  8. Bake at 350° F for 11-13 minutes. The cookie will spread some and the edges should start to turn golden brown when they are ready to come out of the oven.
  9. Allow the cookies to completely cool on the pan.
  10. Enjoy! Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Fluffer Nutter Cookies FAQS

Can I make fluffernutter cookies gluten-free?

Yes, you can! Simply replace the flour with a 1:1 gluten-free flour substitute! I like to use the King Arthur brand – you can grab it here.  Then just double check and make sure your peanut butter and marshmallow fluff are gluten-free and you should be good to go!

    A delicious, successful recipe! I used TJ’s peanut butter since that is what I have on hand – it has no sugar added (it’s a creamy pb with just peanuts & salt) so I was concerned the cookies would be off but they were perfectly sweet. I use unsalted butter for all of my baking so I upped the total salt from 1/2 tsp to 1 tsp. My cookies look exactly like Karli’s and they are so yummy! Salty, sweet, peanut buttery goodness. Definitely go slow when mixing in the fluff at the end. I was nervous so I did that step very slowly by hand and one or two extra stirs and it would have been too incorporated. I used my #40 scoop and it is def the perfect size for these cookies.
