Toasted Marshmallow Mashup Cookies.

Toasted Marshmallow Mashup Cookies. Think soft and chewy chocolate chip cookies, but with a mashup twist—oats for heartiness, salty pretzel bits for crunch, melty dark chocolate, and gooey toasted marshmallows swirled throughout. They’re sweet, salty, buttery, extra gooey, a little toasty, with just the right amount of addicting. Perfect for game day gatherings or those back-to-school bake sales. These are the cookies that will disappear first!

With both school bake sales and football season on the horizon, I figured cookies were a must. Last year I shared my toasted caramel marshmallow rice krispie treats—do you guys remember those? So many of you still make them on repeat, and they’re always a hit.

Now, I’ll be honest—marshmallows are not usually my go-to ingredient. I don’t love them…unless they’re toasted. Toasted marshmallows? Completely different story. Gooey, golden, just the right amount of caramelized. And in my mind, a little goes a long way. These cookies are exactly how I love them—soft, chocolatey, gooey, with that irresistible marshmallow toastiness.

I’m so excited to finally share these with you—they just might become your new fall favorite cookie!

Here are the Cookie Details

Step 1: Gather your ingredients

You’ll need the basics: butter, dark brown sugar, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and sea salt. Simple, simple—nothing fancy, but all good things.

Now for the stir-ins, which are the most important part! Grab old-fashioned oats, salted pretzel twists, pecans, semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips, and of course, marshmallows—the real magic in these cookies.

Step 2: Mix the dough

Start with soft butter and beat it together with the dark brown sugar and vanilla. Add in 2 whole eggs plus 1 extra yolk.

Next, mix in the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir in the oats, crushed pretzels, chopped pecans, and chocolate chips until just combined. These are best eaten warm, right out of the oven, so keep that in mind as you mix!

Step 3: Toast the marshmallows

To do this quickly, I use the broiler. Arrange the marshmallows on a baking sheet and broil until golden and toasty.

My one very important note here—do not walk away from the oven. Every broiler cooks differently, but they all toast FAST. Marshmallows can go from white to black in seconds, so watch closely.

Once toasted, gently fold the marshmallows into the cookie dough. They don’t need to be fully mixed in—just a few swirls of gooey marshmallow are perfect.

Step 4: Bake

Scoop the dough into ¼ cup-sized balls (these are big cookies!). Arrange no more than 6 per baking sheet to give them plenty of space.

Because they’re large, they’ll need a bit more oven time. Bake at 350 for 8 minutes, then rotate the pans and bake for another 4–5 minutes, until just set. Remove from the oven and let the cookies rest on the baking sheet to finish cooking.

They’ll be gooey, golden, and looking so delicious. Enjoy one warm—or package them up for your next bake sale or game day. Guaranteed crowd-pleasers!

Some notes

• 
  

  These cookies will spread—so be careful not to overcrowd the baking sheet! The result is slightly crisp edges with perfectly gooey centers (just like the photos).

  
  
• 
  

  For a slightly thicker cookie, skip the extra egg yolk and stick with only 2 eggs. They won’t spread as much but will still be soft and delicious.

  
  
• 
  

  Sticky marshmallows giving you trouble? Dampen your hands with water and wipe them dry—this trick makes handling the dough so much easier.
