Hi Karen! You will actually want to just reduce the salt to ¼ teaspoon. Enjoy 🙂

Can I use salted butter and then not use the 3/4 tsp salt? Thanks as I want to start them soon

These are rock star! Made them this morning with the advice as you described in measuring. They turned out looking just like yours and are super delicious!

Creamy center and semi soft with a nice little crunch. These go in my recipe file and will be giving out as holiday treats this Christmas. I’ll just sit back and glory in all the praise I get from them. 🌝

You have done outstanding excellent work producing and getting down the recipes to a science. Making it easy for us. Thank you for this !None of your recipes have ever disappointed.I can always count on them to turn out!

Watched your video too which was of great help!

Merry Christmas and thanks
Kathy

Hi David! I have not personally tried adding a flavor the marshmallow, but it would probably be really good with a snickerdoodle cookie. 🙂

Made these a few times and turned out well. Curious if anybody has attempted some sort of flavoring to the marshmallow fluff.

Alternatively, wondering if a different kind of cookie with marshmallow fluff would work well… say snickerdoodle cream pie?

In reply to Nicole.

Hi Nicole! I’m so sorry this happened! Sometimes this happens if it’s a little bit more humid. I have a marshmallow frosting recipe that works well and holds up better in that type of climate. 🙂

Absolutely loved these but by the next day the marshmallow filling had crystalized. What did I do wrong?

These were so delicious. I barely got any because they were just being grabbed up. My filling didn’t set too much, though, but that’s entirely on my part. I used carton egg whites (we don’t have too many eggs to sacrifice for the whites and I can’t find a recipe that uses 6 egg yolks) and I DIY’d a pretty bad double boiler and had to cut the cook time one or two degrees short after getting popped a few times by boiling water. Guys, do not follow my lead on that. I was just sooo desperate because I know some of the best recipes are on this site and I was planning to make this for weeks. I got impatient! Use a proper double boiler. But when I tell you I didn’t regret it!

I made these for the first time last weekend. At first taste they seemed to have too much molasses. But after refrigerating overnight, that next day… WOW they were perfect. Everyone loved them. The marshmallow like filling was amazing.

Oh no! Yes, it sounds like the needed a minute or two longer. So happy still they tasted great though!

Another amazing recipe! My cookies were super soft to the point that they were hard to assemble (and I made them a day in advance, my butter was cool, & have an oven thermometer) but I’m guessing that I should have baked them a touch longer. But these are SO GOOD and another hit with everyone!

In reply to Catherine.

Hi Catherine! I’m so sorry this happened! My best guesses here are water or oil related. If there was any moisture in the eggs or if any grease happened to get in the bowl it can stop them from whipping properly. Also I know sometimes when people use egg whites from a carton they run into this issue, just something to be aware of. I hope this helps. 🙂

This recipe didn’t work out for me. When I tried to make the cream it wouldn’t whip no matter how long I tried (I think I whipped it for over twenty minutes) and it was very runny. All of your other recipes have worked out wonderfully though, so I’m not sure what I did wrong since I followed the instructions exactly. Maybe you could provide some feedback?
Thank you!

Hi Holly! That should work just fine. If you have to stack them to store them I would put wax paper between the layers so they don’t stick together. 🙂

I’m planning on making these for a bake sale fundraiser. Can the cookie portion be baked and frozen ahead of time? I’m making many items and would like to do all I am ahead of time. Thanks

Hi Sam
Made these for a retirement party. It was a pot luck and there were way too many desserts. The only plate that was empty was mine (yours). Had many “I remember Little Debbies from childhood but these were much better. ”

A thousand “Thank you’s”

I’m so glad you enjoyed them so much, Katie! Humidity can cause the gritty kind of texture you are talking about so it may not have been your fault. You can always use a marshmallow frosting in these as well. 🙂

The cookie recipe is really good I Love it. My marshmallow cream went sugary but I’ve never made it before so I’m pretty sure that one is on me and not the recipe. I will definitely be practicing making the marshmallow cream and having it turn out the Way it’s supposed to. This is a great recipe.

Another big hit with your recipe! I made these cookies for a family dinner and everyone loved them, well including myself! So much so, that I made a 2nd batch the very next day for me to have at home! These were one of my favorite cookies growing up. Thank you truly for your dedication in making these recipes the best out there and more importantly sharing these with us. I am a huge fan!

I would love to see a Kaiser Roll recipe from you, since you have experience making bread too.
Thank you again.
