Marshmallow Stuffed Chocolate Chunk Cookies

August 8, 2021 · In: Recipes, Sweet

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Big fan of marshmallows over here! And then with chocolate, I mean…wow! The combo always reminds me of childhood memories roasting marshmallows by the fire to make s’mores. So, naturally, I made stuffed cookies, ha!

This recipe is almost the same as my Buttery Chocolate Chip Cookies with a few little twists. If you prefer no marshmallows, check out that recipe. But, if you’re a marshmallow junky like me, you’re going to want to try these!

These cookies are gluten-free! I used a combination of almond flour, coconut flour and tapioca flour. I like using a little bit of tapioca flour to help make the cookies a little softer and more chewy.

Here’s what you’ll need:

  • almond flour

  • coconut flour

  • tapioca flour

  • baking soda

  • sea salt

  • coconut sugar

  • egg

  • pure vanilla extract

  • grass-fed butter

  • chocolate chunks

  • marshmallows

  • flakey salt (optional for sprinkling on top but SO worth it)

 

Marshmallow Stuffed Chocolate Chunk Cookies

Print Recipe Pin Recipe
Prep Time:15 mins
Cook Time:11 mins
Total Time:26 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 cup fine almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons coconut flour
  • 1 tablespoon tapioca flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon coconut sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup room temperature grass-fed butter
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chunks - I used Enjoy Life Semi-Sweet Chocolate Mega Chunks
  • 6 large marshmallows - I used Dandies Vegan Marshmallows
  • Flakey salt to sprinkle on top optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.⁠
  • In a large bowl, add the almond flour, coconut flour, tapioca flour, coconut sugar, baking soda and sea salt. Mix to combine.⁠
  • In a small bowl. Add egg and whisk. Add vanilla and mix to combine.⁠
  • Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and start to mix with spatula. Add in small pieces of butter at a time and continue to mix until everything is combined.⁠
  • Fold in chocolate chunks.⁠
  • Form dough into balls (think a little bit bigger than a golf ball size) and press 1 marshmallow into the ball then re-shape into a ball again making sure the marshmallows are almost all covered. It's ok if you see them poking out a bit!
  • Place on baking sheet and gently press down a little bit (don't flatten). You want them to be big. 
  • ⁠Bake for 10-11 minutes. You want them to be golden brown at the bottom and slightly golden brown on top. They will be soft and look a little undercooked but they will be perfect!
  • Sprinkle flakey salt on top (if using).
  • Cool for 5-10 minutes before eating.

Let’s talk sleep (it’s sleep month!) 😴 My Let’s talk sleep (it’s sleep month!) 😴 

My sleep has been off since the time change. 🙃 I also caught a cold which seems to happen around this time of year for me. 🤧 Anyone else struggling with sleep?

Sleep can be a tricky one because there can be a lot of reasons why you can’t fall asleep, you wake up often, etc. I’m usually a food first kind of gal but when it comes to sleep, I’ll turn to some supplements for a little support. My issue lately is an overactive mind. I think of everything I need to do the next day. 😂

I love that my pals @naturescanada have a huge supplements department and there is a section for sleep! From homeopathics to herbs and everything in-between. There’s something for everyone! I will say though, one thing might work for one person but not so much for someone else so sometimes it’s trial an error. And always talk to your healthcare provider before taking anything. 

Here are some of my picks:

Magnesium bisglycinate - one of my favourite all around supplements! Magnesium plays a key role in hundreds of chemical reactions in the body. It truly is a star mineral! I like it for relaxing muscles and just helping to feel more calm.

Pascoflair - a herbal sleep aid that can help with restlessness, stress, falling asleep faster, etc.

Sleep by Orange Naturals - homeopathics for restlessness and sleeplessness

Coffee Cruda by Boiron - another homeopathic for sleeplessness

L-Theanine with magnesium - one of my faves! I love this combo because l-theanine (found in green tea) is like a natural stress reliever. Paired with magnesium it’s like the ultimate relaxation combo

Ortho Sleep - this supplement help increase total sleep time, reduce the time it takes to fall asleep, and help to re-set the body’s sleep-wake cycle

Mental Calmness - this is l-theanine on its own - I used to take this one when I was in nutrition school before tests to help me relax and get focused. 

Nighty Night tea - a blend of herbs like chamomile, passionflower & spearmint

If you’re not sure where to start, the team of nutritionists @naturescanada are super knowledgeable and can help you in the right direction!

CARROT CAKE BREAKFAST COOKIES 🥕 Did a little CARROT CAKE BREAKFAST COOKIES 🥕 

Did a little edit on these from last year! I added some dried cranberries and swapped the almond flour for 1:1 gluten-free flour. 👌🏻

Here’s the how to:

(Makes 12-13 cookies)

Dry ingredients:

1 cup 1:1 gluten-free baking flour (I used @bobsredmill)
1 1/4 cup gluten-free rolled oats
1/3 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
1/3 cup raw pumpkin seeds
1/3 cup crushed walnut pieces
1/3 cup dried cranberries 
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp fine sea salt

Wet ingredients:

1/4 cup melted coconut oil
2 eggs, whisked
1/2 cup maple syrup
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup shredded carrot

Preheat the oven to 350° F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 

Melt coconut oil and set aside to cool.

In a large bowl, add the dry ingredients and mix to combine. 

In a small bowl, add the wet ingredients, except for the carrots, and mix to combine.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until everything is combined.

Fold in the carrots.

Using a cookie scooper (or ice cream scooper) or a 1/4 cup measuring spoon, drop cookies onto baking the sheet and flatten them to about 1 inch thickness. Make sure to space them out.

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until slightly golden.

Let cool for 10 minutes.

Enjoy! 🧡

My fav way to meal prep 👇🏻 If you’ve been My fav way to meal prep 👇🏻

If you’ve been around here since the beginning, I loved talking about meal prep! 

1. Utilize flyer deals! This is a great way to save a few bucks each week. @naturescanada has the ground beef I use on special + whole chickens to roast (plus other great protein options), which can be used for several meals! With protein like this, you can make different meal out of them to switch it up. Wraps, tacos, salads, etc. I also picked up some clementines, cheese, rice crackers, coconut milk and sometimes they have some flash deals for berries (and other fruits + veggies) that are great finds!

2. Batch cook/prep foods separately. This means batch cooking/prepping things like protein, rice, lettuce and other vegetables and fruits separately so that you can toss them together to make a meal. Maybe one day you want a taco salad and the other you want a taco wrap! This also keeps things fun and different so you don’t get bored of repetition. 

3. Similar to number 2, I like to have fruits and veggies washed, chopped and ready to grab for a snack. Usually with some cheese and crackers. ☺️

4. Grab and go. I like to make chia pudding or overnight oats sometimes. I can make a batch and get 2 to 3 portions out of it. For protein, you can add collagen or protein powder. Adding fruit on top + some granola (there’s some in the flyer too) is good too! 

5. Have some fun! Sometimes I’ll have some snack packs on hand! 🤭 I don’t have them all the time but I won’t lie, they make me happy. 😋

What are your favourite things to meal prep!? Let me know! 

PS. I have a link in my bio where you can check out the @naturescanada flyer. ☺️💚
