Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups (180 g) all-purpose flour (stir, spoon & level)
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup (113 g) unsalted butter, softened
- ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
- ½ cup (100 g) light brown sugar, packed
- ½ cup (132 g) creamy peanut butter
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup (45 g) mini marshmallows, frozen
Instructions
- Preparation of Ingredients: Begin by freezing the mini marshmallows for at least 1-2 hours, or until they are solid. Keep them in the freezer until they are ready to be added to the dough.
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare your cookie sheets by lining them with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir these ingredients together and set aside for later use.
- Cream Butter and Sugars: Using an electric mixer, cream the softened butter with the granulated and light brown sugars until the mixture is light and creamy.
- Incorporate Wet Ingredients: Add the creamy peanut butter, egg, and vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture. Mix well until all components are thoroughly combined.
- Combine with Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Mix until the dough is almost fully incorporated but do not overmix.
- Add Marshmallows: Fold in the frozen mini marshmallows quickly to prevent them from thawing.
- Shape and Bake: Using a cookie scoop, form the dough into balls and place them a few inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets. Bake in the preheated oven for 11-12 minutes or until the edges begin to brown slightly.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the cookies to cool on the tray for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a serving platter. Optionally, reshape any misshapen cookies using a greased spatula shortly after they come out of the oven.
