Time 1h5m

Yield 12 cookies (1 1/2 cups filling)

Number Of Ingredients 18

3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 cups quick-cooking oats
1/2 cup toasted sweetened coconut flakes
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (see Cook's Note)
Two 7-ounce jars marshmallow creme
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons butter extract
2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (see Cook's Note)

Steps:

  • Make the cookies: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Beat the butter and sugars together in a bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, beating just until the yellow disappears. Beat in the vanilla.
  • Pulse the oats and coconut flakes in a food processor until finely minced. Transfer to a medium bowl. Stir in the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger and salt. Add to the butter mixture, beating until combined.
  • Drop the dough into twenty-four 1 1/2-inch balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 3 inches apart. Bake until the edges just begin to brown, 13 to 15 minutes. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, make the marshmallow filling: Beat the marshmallow creme and butter in a bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until fluffy. Beat in the extracts, powdered sugar and salt until combined. Transfer the filling to a piping bag fitted with a round tip or large zip-top bag and cut off the corner.
  • To assemble the oatmeal cream pies, pipe the marshmallow filling onto the flat sides of 12 cookies. Top with the remaining cookies, flat-sides down.

  • Bake the pie in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the pie cooks evenly.
  • Don't overbake the pie. Overbaking will make the filling dry and crumbly.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the filling to set.
