A long time ago I made these peanut butter cookies studded with chocolate chips and marshmallows.
I took some photos.
Those photos stayed on my camera.
Those photos that stayed on my camera got deleted by my toddler. (You can read about that story here.)
I’d already signed up to share said cookies with my blogging friends in celebration of National Peanut Butter Day.
The real bummer silver lining here, is that I had to make these cookies again.
I remember wishing the cookies had more marshmallow and less chocolate, so I did just that.
These cookies are delicious.
I made them massive. No particular reason. Just because I could.
If you like peanut butter cookies, whip up a batch of these bad boys as soon as you have some marshmallows on hand. (Evidently not all grocery stores have marshmallows, but that’s a story for another day?)
Marshmallow Peanut Butter Cookies
Ingredients:
- 1/2 stick butter, softened
- 1 C creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 C brown sugar
- 1/2 C sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 C flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 2/3 C mini marshmallows
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, and sugar until fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time and vanilla until fully incorporated.
- Add in the flour and baking soda. Mix until combined and a cookie dough forms. Fold in the marshmallows with a wooden spoon or spatula.
- Roll cookie dough into balls and place onto the prepared cookie sheet. Bake 15 minutes, until cookies are browning and marshmallows melted. Let cool on the baking sheet 5 minutes before removing to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Thanks, Wendy. Definitely my motto.
Welcome to the normal everyday life of a food blogger!!! I am beginning to think that more things don’t work out than things that do! These cookies “sound” delicious!!!
yum! i ended up with an abundance of marshmallows recently. now i know what to use them for!
Yes!
I have accidentally deleted so many photos! And I can’t even blame it on a toddler! I love the idea of marshmallows with peanut butter.
These remind me of fluffernutter sandwiches!
oh my goodness! These look so gooey & delicious!
I highly recommend Google photos, but then you wouldn’t have had the “opportunity” to tweak the recipe!
A classic combo worth making again just because 😉
Peanut butter and marshmallow is one of my all time favorite flavor combinations.
The deleted photos has happened to me way too many times, but I love how you made the best of it! Marshmallows made everything better, especially these cookies!
An absolutely! awesome cookie! I can’t imagine how difficult it is when the wee ones do their magic, Your pics and recipe us delish
I love that you made them massive! I have a ton of leftover marshmallows from Claire’s bday. This may need to happen.
