Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour

3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature

1 1/2 cups granulated sugar

2 large eggs, room temperature

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 cup marshmallow fluff

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy (about 3-4 minutes).
  3. Beat in eggs one at a time, then add vanilla extract and mix until combined.
  4. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined—do not overmix.
  5. Cover and refrigerate dough for at least 1 hour to firm up.
  6. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
  7. Use a cookie scoop to portion the dough and roll into balls. Place 2 inches apart on the baking sheets.
  8. Make a small indent in the center of each dough ball and spoon in about 1 teaspoon of marshmallow fluff. Use a toothpick to lightly swirl it into the dough.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are set but centers remain soft. Optionally, add more fluff halfway through baking for extra gooeyness.
  10. Cool cookies on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Chill dough to prevent excess spreading and for easier handling.
  • Use real marshmallows for fluffier swirls or jumbo marshmallows for a dramatic center.
  • Rotate baking sheets halfway through baking for even results.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze dough for up to 3 months.
