Instructions
Make the Cookies:
- Preheat oven to 350º F (180º C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a bowl, combine flour, quick oats, cornstarch, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
- In another bowl, mix the melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and molasses. Stir in milk and vanilla until well combined.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients, mixing until everything is fully incorporated.
- Drop dough using a large cookie scoop (1.5 to 2 tablespoons) onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 3 inches apart.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes until edges are barely golden but centers remain soft. Cool on baking sheets for 5-7 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
Make the Filling:
- In an electric mixer, cream together butter, confectioners’ sugar, and vanilla on medium-high speed until smooth.
- Mix in marshmallow fluff, beating until fluffy and smooth, about 3 minutes.
Assembly:
- Once cookies have cooled, scoop about 2 tablespoons of marshmallow cream filling onto the bottom of one cookie. Top with another cookie to form a sandwich.
