Ingredients
Scale
Cookies:
- ½ cup (129 g) creamy peanut butter
- ½ cup (1 stick / 113 g) unsalted butter, (room temperature)
- 1 cup (200 g) light brown sugar, (packed)
- 1 large egg, (room temperature)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1½ cups (187.5 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
Filling:
- 1 cup marshmallow fluff, (or marshmallow creme)
Instructions
- Preheat oven. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Mix peanut butter, butter, and brown sugar. In a large bowl, add peanut butter, butter, and brown sugar. Using a hand mixer, combine the mixture until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add egg and vanilla. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add egg and vanilla and mix until combined (about 30 seconds).
- Add flour, cornstarch, and salt. Add in flour, cornstarch, and salt.
- Incorporate all ingredients. With the mixer on low, incorporate the ingredients until just combined (30 seconds-1 minute).
- Scoop dough into balls. Flatten each dough ball. Using a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop, drop dough onto the lined baking sheets. Using your hand, flatten each dough ball into a flat disk shape about 3-inches across.
- Fill each dough disc with marshmallow fluff. Using two spoons (this will keep your hands from getting sticky), add about 1 tablespoon of marshmallow fluff to the center of each disk of dough. (You can also add the fluff to a piping bag and pipe dollops onto each dough disk.)
- Bring dough up around the marshmallow fluff. Bring the dough up around the marshmallow fluff, completely covering the fluff and forming a ball. Place on the lined baking sheets.
- Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are brown. Watch the cookies carefully so that the marshmallow does not burn.
- Let cookies rest before serving. Let the cookies rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.
