Equipment
- Mixing Bowls
- Electric Mixer
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Baking Sheets
- Parchment Paper
- Cookie Scoop
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 1 box instant chocolate pudding mix 13.4 oz
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 2-1/4 cups flour
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure even baking.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the peanut butter, eggs, and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture and mix on low speed until fully combined, scraping down the sides as needed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix, flour, baking soda, and baking powder.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips and mini marshmallows using a spatula, being careful not to overmix to keep the marshmallows intact.
- Using a cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them a few inches apart.
- Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden but centers remain soft.
- Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For extra peanut butter flavor, drizzle melted peanut butter over cooled cookies.
- Softened butter is key for easy creaming and chewy texture.
- Chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking for thicker cookies.
- Feel free to add nuts or candies for extra texture and flavor.
- Store cookies in an airtight container with a slice of bread to keep them soft.
