Description
Delightfully surprising chocolate marshmallow swirl cookies that are soft, chewy, and filled with sweet marshmallow fluff.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup (75 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (225 g) unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1½ cups (300 g) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup (240 g) marshmallow fluff
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the softened butter and sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3–4 minutes.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully mixed before adding the next. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Gently swirl the marshmallow fluff into the dough or wait until after chilling.
- Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- About 20 minutes before baking, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to portion out chilled dough. Roll each scoop into a ball and place it on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Press a small indent into the center of each ball and add a teaspoon of marshmallow fluff. Use a toothpick to swirl the marshmallow into the cookie.
- Bake the cookies for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are soft.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to allow the marshmallow to set slightly, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For an extra gooey finish, you can add a little more marshmallow fluff halfway through baking.
- Make sure the butter is at room temperature for the best texture.
- Chilling the dough is important to prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
