Tips

  • Use brown sugar for a chewier and more molasses-like cookie, similar to the original oatmeal creme pies.
  • Slightly underbake the cookies to ensure they remain chewy.
  • Use quick one-minute oats as they are ground thinner, avoiding a scratching sensation in the throat.
  • When mixing the filling, beat at speed 6 for about 5 minutes to achieve a fluffy texture.
  • Fold in the marshmallow fluff gently to maintain its fluffiness.
