Flufforeo: Fluff Centennial

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Last year I discovered that Marshmallow Fluff is from Somerville, a city right outside of Boston, and that every year Somerville has a Fluff Festival. I also found out that this festival has a baking contest, so of course I have to enter. If you didn’t see my entry from last year, I made these.

This year I was not sure about entering because I had a conflict with the timing of the festival, but I found out this year was the centennial celebration of Fluff and I didn’t want to miss out on this milestone! I was also really struggling with recipe ideas. I tried two different recipes multiple times, never quite getting either one right. I was quickly becoming frustrated, and running out of time.

Suddenly I came up with a great idea – recreate an Oreo. I loved this idea. I got super excited about it and got right to work. After a couple test runs I had the perfect recipe.

I am so incredibly happy with how this recipe turned out. The Oreos are amazing, and I really had my hopes up for a chance at winning this baking contest. I went out of my way to adjust multiple schedules to make sure I could enter this contest, and I was so happy with this decision because I felt so confident that these cookies would win.

I won’t drag it out – I did not win the contest, but these Oreos are addictingly good. I’m not as disappointed as I thought I would be, and I think it’s because of how amazing these cookies are. These might be my new go-to birthday gifts for everyone I know. (Also, have we talked about how many birthdays are in September?! It’s crazy, right??)

I’ve already brainstormed ideas for next year’s contest and I can’t wait to give it another go!

Cookies

Preheat the oven to 375 F and line a baking sheet with non-stick foil.
In a food processor, blend flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and sugars.
Add a few cubes of butter at the time to the food processor and pulse. Continue until all the butter is added.
Add the egg and mix until the mixture forms a dough.
