Wagon Wheel Cookies
Picture this: a delightful cookie, sumptuous cream filling, and a nostalgic nod to your childhood. That’s the charm of Wagon Wheel Cookies! They’re easy to make and adventurous to enjoy.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup marshmallow fluff
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). You’re going to need that warm oven for these gooey, delicious cookies!
- In a bowl, mix together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set this mixture aside. It’s like assembling your cookie army!
- In a different bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until it’s light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Think of it as a cloud of sweetness.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, and mix until everything is combined smoothly. You’ll want this to be a silky concoction!
- Spoon in the dry ingredients into the wet mixture gradually, mixing until well combined. It’s cookie magic happening right before your eyes!
- On a parchment-lined baking sheet, drop spoonfuls of the dough, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Give them plenty of room to spread their cookie wings!
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges start to firm up. Your kitchen shouldn’t smell like a bakery; it should smell like paradise!
- Once baked, allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack. This is the toughest part, but your patience will be rewarded!
- Once cooled, spread a generous dollop of marshmallow fluff onto one cookie and top it with another. Repeat until all cookies are filled, and your dreams are realized!
- For the finishing touch, melt the chocolate chips and drizzle them over the assembled cookies. Because, let’s face it, chocolate makes everything better!
