✨ Inside the Kitchen: Crafting the Stuffed Starwberry Marshmallow Cookie

Some cookies are delicious. Others are nostalgic. But every now and then, a cookie comes along that feels like a tiny moment of wonder — and that’s exactly what the Stuffed Strawberry Marshmallow Cookie is all about. Soft, golden dough on the outside, a gooey marshmallow center on the inside… it’s the kind of treat that makes you pause mid‑bite and smile.

Today, I’m taking you behind the scenes to show you how this dreamy cookie comes to life.

❄️ Step One: Freeze the Fluff

The secret to getting that perfect molten center is simple but essential: freeze the strawberry marshmallow fluff ahead of time. Scooping small portions onto a lined tray and letting them firm up in the freezer ensures they hold their shape long enough to be tucked inside the dough. This step makes all the difference once the cookies hit the oven.

🥣 Step Two: Build the Dough

Next comes the foundation — a classic, comforting cookie dough. I start by mixing the dry ingredients in one bowl and the wet ingredients in another, then bringing them together until the dough is smooth and cohesive. Once the dough is ready, I roll it into even balls and let them rest in the refrigerator for 24–48 hours.

This chill time deepens the flavor, improves the texture, and helps the cookies bake up thick and tender.

🍪 Step Three: Stuff the Magic Inside

When the dough has fully rested, it’s time for the fun part. Each dough ball gets gently opened — almost like forming a tiny cup. Into that little pocket goes a piece of the frozen strawberry marshmallow fluff, nestled right in the center. Then the dough is carefully sealed back up, making sure the fluff is completely enclosed.

This step feels a bit like wrapping a secret inside each cookie.

🔥 Step Four: Bake to Golden Perfection

Once stuffed and sealed, the cookies are placed on a baking sheet and baked until the edges turn golden and the centers stay soft. As they warm in the oven, the frozen fluff melts into a gooey, irresistible core that transforms every bite.

The result is a cookie that’s crisp on the outside, soft in the middle, and filled with a warm strawberry marshmallow surprise.

✨ A Treat Worth Sharing

Stuffed Strawberry Marshmallow Cookies aren’t just a recipe — they’re an experience. From the frozen fluff to the slow‑rested dough to that first magical bite, each step adds a little more joy to the final result.

If you’re looking for a cookie that brings comfort, nostalgia, and a touch of whimsy, this one might just become your new favorite.
