Peanut Butter Fluff Cookies Ingredients

- Creamy peanut butter – Don’t use natural peanut butter, these cookies haven’t been tested with it!
- Brown sugar – Using majority brown sugar will help the cookies stay super soft.
- Granulated sugar
- Egg
- All-purpose flour
- salt
- 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
- Preheat the oven to 350° F.
- Line your baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
- 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.
- Scrape the sides of the bowl and add in the egg. Mix until combined.
- Add the flour, baking soda and salt, mix until the sticky dough forms.
- 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.
- Scoop out the dough in 1 1/2 tbsp portions (#40 scoop) and arrange on a parchment lined cookie sheet.
- 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.
- Allow the cookies to completely cool on the pan.
- Enjoy! Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
