Some cookies are good.
These?
They’re soft like a cloud… and just a little messy in the best way.
These marshmallow chocolate chip cloud cookies bake up light and pillowy on the outside, with melted chocolate and gooey marshmallow pockets tucked into every bite.
They look simple…
but the moment you pull one apart—
that soft center stretches, melts, and kind of steals the show.
Warm, soft, and just sweet enough…
these don’t last long on the tray.
Why These Cloud Cookies Feel So Different
It’s all about texture.
You get:
- A soft, fluffy cookie base
- Melted chocolate in every bite
- Gooey marshmallow pockets that stretch when warm
They’re not crisp, They’re not dense, They’re soft, airy, and just slightly chewy in the center.
That’s what makes them addictive.
What You’ll Need to Make Them
Simple pantry ingredients—nothing complicated:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
That’s it. Classic cookie base—just upgraded.
How to Make Marshmallow Chocolate Chip Cloud Cookies
Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet.
In a bowl, cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy—it should look smooth and slightly airy.
Add the egg and vanilla, mixing until silky.
In another bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt.
Slowly mix dry ingredients into the wet—just until combined.
Fold in chocolate chips and marshmallows. The dough will be soft and a little sticky.
Scoop rounded tablespoons onto your baking sheet, leaving space between each.
Bake for 10–12 minutes until edges are lightly golden but centers stay soft.
Let them rest on the pan for a few minutes.
That’s when they set… and stay gooey inside.
The Best Part (That Pull-Apart Moment)
This is where it gets fun.
You take one while it’s still warm…
Break it open—
The chocolate melts.
The marshmallow stretches.
The cookie stays soft and light.
It’s gooey, airy, and just a little sticky.
Exactly how it should be.
A Little Note From My Kitchen
These are one of those cookies that look even better a few minutes after baking.
Not fully cooled…
just slightly set.
That’s when the marshmallow is still soft and stretchy.
Sometimes I add extra marshmallows on top right before baking.
Sometimes I don’t measure perfectly.
And honestly?
They always turn out good.
