when my cookies came out of the hot oven they were fluffy. and once they cooled on the sheet they were flat not think and crusty any suggestions?
Chahinez
Make sure you don’t flatten them too much before baking. Slightly flattening the top will ensure they retain that height when baked and cooled.
Maddie
Very good cookie. Very delicious. Would definitely recommend making.
Chahinez
Thank you so much!!!
Darcy
These were so good! I thought they were going to be too sweet but the frosting really balanced them out. Everyone loved them for St. Patrick’s Day. I made smaller/mini cookies and baked them for 9 minutes.
Chahinez
Thank you for trying the recipe out!😁
Teresa
I’ve loved every one of your recipes I’ve made so far. (this might be my new favorite) I found myself eating the dough; it is so delicious!
I ordered multi-colored dehydrated marshmallows from Amazon just for this recipe.
I had leftover cream cheese frosting, so I just added the marshmallow fluff and a bit more powdered sugar – YUM!
Whenever I bake cookies (at least once a week) your website and recipes are my go-to.
Thank you for making baking more fun and flavorful! ❤

This is THE CUTEST RECIPE!
I have been wanting to make these for a while now and finally put myself to it! I used all the ingredients with no substitutions and it was lovely. Chewy, buttery cookies studded with pops of indulgent white chocolate and sweet marshmallow cereal. The marshmallow cream cheese frosting was not overly sweet, so it complemented the cereal perfectly.

Delicious! It was a hit all around. Shared with my neighbors and they LOVED them too!
Chahinez
I’m so glad to hear that!
Melissa
Can you freeze them with the marshmallows on top? Also can you warm the cookies back up from frozen with the marshmallows on top?
Chahinez
Hi Melissa!
Yes, you can freeze these with the frosting on top since it’s not just marshmallow fluff. It’s a cream cheese frosting base with a little marshmallow fluff in there.
Unfortunately, you will not be able to heat the cookies back up if they are already frosted. If you want to do that, store the frosted cookies in an air-tight container in the freezer and the frosting in a different container in the freezer. Once you’re ready to serve, whip up the frosting again to get it light and fluffy, heat up your cookies, I like to do so in the microwave, and then frost and enjoy.
I hope this helped!

Hello! I see in the ingredient list you have cream cheese. But, in the notes above, you say to use cream cheese frosting. Can you please clarify? These are my favorite Crumbl cookies and I can’t wait to try your recipe! Thank you! -Cindy 🙂
Chahinez
Hi Cindy!
So this frosting recipe is made with both cream cheese and marshmallow fluff. So you will have to cream the butter, cream cheese, and marshmallow fluff to make the cream cheese frosting for this recipe.
I hope this helped and I can’t wait for you to try this recipe. 🙂
