Peanut Butter Marshmallow No-Bake Cookies

Peanut butter no-bake cookies, flavored with a marshmallow extract and mini marshmallows.  An easy, no-bake cookie that you can make in less than 15-minutes, start to finish.  You in?!

No-bake cookies are the epitome of Summer time to me.  There was nothing better than coming in from a long day swimming or playing in the neighborhood and sinking my teeth into a no-bake cookie.

Amoretti sent me some of their IND Compounds (extract strength extracts) to try and they have the most AMAZING flavors.  So when I saw the Toasted Marshmallow IND Compound, my mind instantly went to making a peanut butter no-bake cookie, flavored with marshmallow.  Because peanut butter and marshmallows….why not?!

If you do not have this marshmallow compound and still want that marshmallow flavor in the cookies, just add 1/2 cup mini marshmallows as soon as you take the mixture off the stove.  You will get some good melty, marshmallow flavor in there.  Then stir in the oats.

When making these no-bake cookies, you will use anywhere from 2-3 cups of oats.  I used 2-3/4 cups of oats.  Add enough oats that the cookies will come together, but that the mixture still has a moist/wet consistency and is not thick and dry.  Once the cookies are set on the piece of foil, they will firm up and set.

Print Recipe
Serves: 12 Cooking Time: 5-10 minutes

Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • 2 cups white granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (or use chunky!)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons Amoretti Toasted Marshmallow Compound (or 1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract)
  • 2-3 cups quick cooking oats
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows

Instructions

1

Place a long strip of foil or parchment paper on the counter to drop your cookies on.

2

In a medium sized pot, add the butter, almond milk and sugar to the pot. Put the pot on the stovetop over medium heat. Stir mixture occasionally as you measure out the peanut butter and get the oats ready. Once the mixture on the stove starts to bubble on top and boil, start the timer and boil for exactly 1-minute. Do not boil any longer. During that minute, stir the mixture constantly as it comes to a full, rolling boil. Once the minute is up, remove the pot from the stove.

3

Immediately stir in the peanut butter, salt and marshmallow compound (or vanilla extract) to the mixture, and stir until combined. Stir in oats, one cup at a time, making sure each cup is completely mixed into the cookie mixture, before adding the next cup of oats. Only use enough oats that the cookie consistency is still wet, but thick enough that they will set. I used 2-3/4 cups of oats. Fold in the mini marshmallows.

4

Use a standard sized cookie scoop to drop cookies onto the foil. While cookies are still warm, you can use the back of a spoon to smooth and shape your cookies into perfect cookie shapes. Allow cookies to cool and set before transferring to an airtight container.

Notes

Store in an airtight container at room temperature. See notes in the blog post for cooking tips and for alternatives to the marshmallow compound.
