How to Make Loaded Vegan Marshmallow Cookies
- Preheat the oven. Set your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix dry ingredients. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
- Combine wet ingredients. In a separate bowl, whisk avocado oil, coconut sugar, maple syrup, non-dairy milk, and vanilla until smooth.
- Make the dough. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
- Add mix-ins. Fold in dark chocolate chips and vegan marshmallows evenly throughout the dough.
- Scoop the cookies. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake. Bake for 10–12 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden and the centers remain soft.
- Cool. Let cookies cool for 10–15 minutes before transferring to a rack.
Tips for Perfect Gooey Cookies
- Don’t overbake—the centers should look slightly underdone
- Press extra marshmallows on top before baking for a gooey finish
- Use high-quality chocolate for better flavor balance
- Let cookies cool slightly to set the texture
- Store in an airtight container to maintain softness
Why Chocolate and Marshmallows Work So Well Together
This classic combination is all about contrast. The dark chocolate adds richness and depth, while the marshmallows melt into soft, sweet pockets that create that signature gooey texture. Together, they turn a simple cookie into something that feels more indulgent and nostalgic.
This pairing is also what makes these cookies similar to s’mores-inspired desserts, but without needing graham crackers or a campfire.
Perfect for Holidays, Gifting & Everyday Treats
These cookies are versatile enough for any occasion. They work just as well for holiday baking trays as they do for casual weekend desserts or after-dinner treats. Their gooey texture and rich flavor make them especially popular for sharing.
To build a full dessert spread, pair them with Chocolate Covered Strawberries, The Ultimate Vegan Snack Board, or Classic Vegan Chocolate Ice Cream Bars.
Why Pascha Chocolate Works in These Cookies
Because these cookies rely on just a few key flavors, the chocolate plays a major role. Using Pascha dark chocolate chips gives the cookies a smoother melt and deeper flavor that balances the sweetness of the marshmallows.
