Delicious chocolate cookies swirled with marshmallow creme, perfect for a gooey dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup (113g) unsalted butter, melted
- ¾ cup (150g) light brown sugar, packed
- ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
- ½ cup (50g) unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup (130g) semi-sweet chocolate chips or chunks
- ½ cup marshmallow creme (like Fluff or Jet-Puffed)
Instructions
- Melt the Butter: Start by melting your butter until just liquid. Let it cool for a couple of minutes—this helps the sugars blend smoothly and gives you a shiny, soft dough.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until well combined and slightly glossy. Add in the egg and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir gently until just combined. The dough should be thick and rich—like brownie batter you want to dive into.
- Fold in Chocolate Chips: Mix in your semi-sweet chocolate chips or chunks for extra melty goodness in every bite.
- Swirl in Marshmallow: Dollop small spoonfuls of marshmallow creme over the dough. Gently fold or swirl it in with a spatula, being careful not to overmix. You want beautiful ribbons, not fully blended.
- Scoop and Chill: Scoop the dough into balls using a cookie scoop or tablespoon and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Chill the dough balls for at least 30 minutes. This helps prevent too much spreading and enhances the texture.
- Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the cookies for 8–10 minutes until the edges are set but the centers are still soft. They’ll continue to bake slightly on the pan after you remove them from the oven.
- Cool and Enjoy: Let cookies cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Enjoy warm for the ultimate gooey experience—or store for later indulgence.
Notes
- Chilling the dough helps prevent spreading during baking.
