Key Ingredients

When selecting ingredients, our experts at Our Kitchen emphasize choosing high-quality, recognizable brands like Land O’Lakes butter for the best flavor and texture in your baked goods. For a genuine, honey-sweetened marshmallow experience, use pure Kraft marshmallow creme. Always choose milk chocolate chips with a higher cocoa content for intensely rich flavor, such as Hershey’s Dark.

We also suggest draining any excess moisture from the creme de-style marshmallows between steps to ensure optimal absorption and even spreading within your cookie dough.
