Fluffernutter Cookies

ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup brown sugar, packed
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup creamy peanut butter
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
• 1 cup marshmallow fluff
• 1 cup peanut butter chips (optional)

the making of it

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly grease them.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
3. Add the egg, vanilla extract, and peanut butter. Mix until well combined.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
6. Stir in the oats and peanut butter chips, if using.
7. Gently fold in the marshmallow fluff, being careful not to overmix so the fluff stays swirled throughout the dough.
8. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart.
9. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set.
10. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
