Peanut Butter Marshmallow Chocolate Chunk Cookies

These Peanut Butter Marshmallow Chocolate Chunk Cookies are my new favorite cookie flavor, and they just might be yours too! Such a fun spin on classic cookies that are perfect for the holiday season, or just when you’re craving a delicious treat.

Ah, cookies. It’s that time of year where baking is at an all time high, and cookies are what everyone is loving. Whether it’s super unique cookie that stands out, or it’s the best take on a classic cookie recipe. Cookies are on everyone’s mind.

I have to admit, I haven’t really played with new cookie recipes in a while. I have dozens of unique recipes I’ve created for cookies, and I pretty much just rotate our family favorites.

However, when my friend Natasha said she was doing her yearly cookie bake-off with many of her online friends, I decided to see what I could come up with. In years past I’ve participated and made these Cherry Pecan Thumbprint Cookies and also these Chewy Chocolate with Coffee Glaze, and both were amazing!

(Be sure to stick around at the end of this recipe for all the rest of the cookie recipe ideas!)

peanut butter marshmallow chocolate chunk cookies #HousefulofCookiesThis year I decided to combine two of my family’s favorite classic cookie flavors, chocolate chip cookies and peanut butter cookies, and add a little twist with some marshmallows. Instead of chocolate chips, I thought chocolate chunks would be great, using semi-sweet chocolate and milk chocolate. This recipe is based a bit more closely on my peanut butter cookie recipe, with the additions of the chocolate and marshmallows.

peanut butter marshmallow chocolate chunk cookies #HousefulofCookiesI used a cookie dough baller with these, then rolled by hand to ensure they were all just about the same size. When placing them on the cookie sheet, try to put the side with the most marshmallows on the top so it doesn’t melt all over your sheet. They’ll be delicious no matter what, though!

Carefully push any melted marshmallow or chocolate back into the cookie, following the cookie shape. Allow to cool on the cookie sheet for about 5-10 minutes before moving to a rack to cool completely.peanut butter marshmallow chocolate chunk cookies #HousefulofCookiesThese cookies are so delicious! The inside is soft with slightly crispy edges. The chocolate and marshmallow is melty goodness with just the right amount of peanut butter. These are honestly my new favorite cookie!

Author: Mama Harris' Kitchen
Recipe type: Dessert, Cookies, Holiday Treats
Cuisine: American
Serves: 20 cookies
Ingredients
  • 1¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ⅓ cup white granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ cup chunky peanut butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chunks (4 oz bar)
  • 1 cup milk chocolate chunks (4 oz bar)
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • coarse kosher salt (optional)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Begin by adding the flour, baking soda, salt and nutmeg to a medium bowl and mix together until combined, then set aside. Roughly chop the chocolate into chunks and measure it out to two cups.
  3. In a separate mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugars until smooth. Add the egg, then the peanut butter and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Slowly incorporate the flour mixture and mix until just combined.
  5. Carefully fold in the chocolate chunks and marshmallows.
  6. Roll into balls, and place on a cookie sheet lined with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
  7. Lightly press down on the tops of the cookies to slightly flatten them, then sprinkle with coarse kosher salt.
  8. Bake in preheated oven for 8-10 minutes.
  9. The cookies will still be very soft when taking them out of the oven, some of the marshmallow and chocolate might even slightly run. Using a spatula, gently push the edges that have run and form them back into the cookie shape.
  10. Leave cookies on the cookie sheet for at least 5 more minutes before moving to racks to cool completely.
  11. Carefully remove as the marshmallows will be sticky, I used a silicone mat with a silicone spatula which helped greatly to reduce any stickiness.
  12. Once cookies have cooled, enjoy!
  13. Store in an airtight container.

What is Houseful Of Cookies?

Houseful of Cookies is an annual, virtual cookie hop, hosted by Natasha Nicholes of Houseful of Nicholes. She really likes playing on the “Houseful” theme when there is more than one of something, and since there’s more than one cookie…here we are. Each year, she gathers a bunch of us from the internet to bake up our epic cookie creations and share them with all of you! It’s a fun time, and we all have dealt with butter, flour, and various flavorings to bring you our goodies each year. This year, we present to you, our cookie hop.

[Sponsored]: Summertime is coming and will be here before we know it! You all know that I love easy meals during the warmer months, and I also love a good meal in a bowl. It’s also Vidalia Onion season 🧅 so I paired this seasonal favorite with pan-seared shrimp and veggies as a light rice bowl using your choice of grains.☺️This meal is an absolute delight!

Get the recipe and all the Vidalia Onion details by clicking the link in my profile or desktop users can click here for the recipe >> https://mamaharriskitchen.com/2021/06/pan-seared-shrimp-veggie-rice-bowl-vidalia-onions/ .

Also make sure to grab some Vidalia Onions from your local grocer before they are out of season in late August/early September.☀️

This time of year I love warm, comforting recipes that are super easy and delish. This ridiculously easy Chicken Tortilla Soup is a one pot meal, ready in under 30 minutes and uses already prepared rotisserie chicken for maximum flavor (and ease)! With a tasty blend of flavors and textures, it’s like a bowl full of comfort.

(AD) There has been a lot of cooking going on this year, so I’ve tried to make life a bit easier by getting creative with my leftovers. These pulled pork totchos are a great example of leftovers with a few key ingredients to create something new to keep our meals exciting. Adding a few key ingredients like @lamorenausa adobo peppers and jalapeños and carrots definitely livens up something simple. La Morena peppers are hand selected, using only the highest quality peppers to bring you authentic home style flavors of Mexico. I purchased my La Morena items from my local Safeway, but you can find them at your favorite grocery store in the international food section. #PayItForwardwithLM #VivaLaMorena #WeCanWithLaMorena 
 
INGREDIENTS:
- 32 oz tater tots
- 2 cups shredded cheese (Mexican blend + Pepper Jack)
- 2 cups prepared bbq pulled pork (check my pulled pork sliders recipe!)
- 1/2 can La Morena Adobo Peppers & Sauce
- 2 tablespoons sour cream 
- 2 tablespoons ranch dressing
- 1 cup pico de Gallo
- 1/2 cup guacamole
- 3 chopped green onions 
- 3-4 La Morena jalapeños and carrots, sliced

INSTRUCTIONS:
Prepare tater tots as instructed, in air fryer or oven. Heat oven to 450°. 
Cover the bottom of a large cast iron skillet with the cooked tater tots. 
Top with 1 1/2 cup of cheese. 
Combine the chopped adobo peppers and sauce with the prepared bbq pulled pork. Spread the pulled pork mixture on top of the tater tots, then top with the remaining cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes.
Top with sour cream, ranch, pico de Gallo, guacamole, green onions, and sliced jalapeños and carrots.

Enjoy!! 😋

This year I’ve created Cranberry Pistachio Citrus Cookies to share as my contribution. 🍪 I know that a lot of things have turned “virtual” throughout this year, but a little virtual bake-off is a fun way to connect with some of your favorite people!

Hello Instagram fam! 💖 There’s some new faces around here and it’s been a while since I showed mine!

I’m Dawn, creator of Mama Harris’ Kitchen, and I’m so glad you’re here with me! In this space I share my family-friendly recipes for all occasions, whether it be a 30-minute meal for those busy weeknight dinners or a full spread for entertaining a crowd - and everything in between.

Mama Harris’ Kitchen began back in 2012, in fact it’s 8 years this month! 🥳  What started as a way to document my newfound cooking hobby while managing my “new” life as a stay-at-home wife and mom to a 1 and 3 year along with teens and preteens, and it quickly grew into what it is now - a recipe resource for busy families like mine that enjoy flavorful and comforting home-cooking using pantry staples along with fresh and local ingredients as often as possible. 

🍿Five fun facts about me:
1. I LOVE elephants! 🐘 I collect a lot of elephant items, whether it’s trinkets or  artwork, notepads etc. I love what elephants symbolize and I truly love anything elephant related.
2. I’m a total plant lady! 🌱 I have about 35 houseplants, give or take, and there’s still more on the list of wants. Plants have become such a peaceful outlet for me, and I feel that they really center me within my space. I love the element plants bring to your space and the feel of your home with them in it, and new leaves are so exciting!
3. I have seven tattoos and I have plans for about eight more. 💉 Those that know me aren’t surprised, but those that follow me here tend to find it a bit surprising. 🙃
4. I’ve been a mother for a long time, over half my life! I’ve also been a lot of different “types” of mom - teen mom, single mom, working mom, stepmom, stay at home mom, PROUD mom, military mom, mother in law - the list goes on. No matter what, motherhood looks different for everyone and there’s unique challenges and experiences each mother faces. Please be gentle with yourself! ❤️At the end of the day we’re all just trying our best!
5. I’m a bit of an introvert, and often struggle with the “social” aspect of social media. I tend to go silent sometimes, but I’m working on it.

☀️Thank you for joining me here!
