Chocolate Dough
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Marshmallow Swirl
- Prepare the Chocolate Dough: In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually blend the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
- Incorporate the Marshmallow Fluff: Drop spoonfuls of the chocolate dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Using a small spoon, dollop marshmallow fluff onto each cookie mound. With a toothpick or knife, gently swirl the marshmallow into the dough to create a marbled effect, being careful not to mix completely.
- Bake the Cookies: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the cookies for 10–12 minutes or until the edges are set but the centers remain soft. The marshmallow will become slightly golden and gooey.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy warm or at room temperature for best texture.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use high-quality cocoa powder.
- Do not overmix the marshmallow swirl to preserve the distinct marbled look.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- Reheat gently before serving to soften marshmallow if desired.
