OK MISS, YOU"RE KIND OF A GENIUS! A few weeks ago I was looking for exactly this recipe since I love that particular oatmeal taste. I appreciate all your work and attention to detail. Can't wait to make these today! So happy to be a subscriber!!

Your channel is such a goldmine of great recipes and tips. Loved the way you described the dos and don'ts of the butter in the beginning and the marshmallow fluff creation, among other things. The real mystery is, how do you stay so thin making all this amazing food? I know that every recipe of yours I make will result in me eating most of the batch. It'll be worth it though lol

I perfected the melted butter I don't melt it all the way. bits sort of like chocolate where you leave some unmelted and then stir. The residual heat will melt the rest without heating it up too much. didn't have to wait for the bitter to cool down. Thank you for tips and know how and your well researched testing. They were great!

My parents always or sometimes brought a box of little Debbie's pies, for me and my 3 sisters. I just watched a video on making this. and he used a mixer. I've been watching his cooking videos gor a while. but I want to keep this easy gor me. I have both a ice-cream sandwich pan, that makes small ice cream sandwich cookies, that can make this. Instead of a ice cream scoop.

[@sweetdeb100]

Hi Dear, Just wanted you to know that I made your your version of little Debbie snack cakes. They turned out amazing. I must be honest with you, the next time I make them ill put half of the amount of sugar, they are really sweet. Thank you so very much for all your hard work and awesome recipes. God bless 🙏 Merry Christmas 🙏

These look so much better than Little Debbie’s, way more decadent and possibly addictive. With all the sweet treats you bake and make, I bet you family are always excited to get home to see what’s new in the kitchen. Lucky Family. I would be as big as the refrigerator itself. As usual, thanks for sharing Sam!

[@paigeburton8995]

Looks great. Anybody know if this will work without cream of tarter ?? Thankssssss❤

[@SugarSpunRun]

It will work without the cream of tartar. It is just used here as kind of "training wheels". It helps keep the filling from breaking down. :)

[@melhill2104]

I made these and they were delicious! Thank you for sharing!!

[@SugarSpunRun]

[@carlaswickard1428]

These were phenomenal! I will say I did not use the filling listed. I made a small batch of buttercream and added marshmallow extract

[@SugarSpunRun]

I'm so glad you enjoyed them! :)

[@lisababcock4502]

You nailed this recipe Sam. Pretty easy and doable. The marshmallow fluff is spot on and the cookie is soft chewy and so so delicious! My husband is going to love these. I have some marshmallow fluff leftover,, do You know if it keeps for very long?

[@SugarSpunRun]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! It will last about 4 days in an air tight container at room temperature. :)

[@Mr.Nate132]

I've recently made homemade oatmeal cream pies. I followed the same recipe as you did for the cookies themselves. I just did the cream a little differently. Instead of making marshmallow fluff, I just mixed store-bought marshmallow fluff with powdered sugar and vanilla extract. My siblings liked them, but surprisingly, my parents didn't, probably, because they hardly use molasses in any recipes. I can't even think of any recipes that require molasses, other than the oatmeal cream pies and gingerbread cookies. Can you?

[@saraguidera7287]

These are absolutely amazing! Thanks for the recipe!

[@SugarSpunRun]

I’m so glad you enjoyed them! 😊😊

[@pamelaquander8485]

I have everything listed, but I bought a container of marshmallow fulff cream. I have a flat ice cream sandwiche pan that I bought from Avon products. my niece has a 8 yr. Old son in the 2nd grade, and I am a retired day care worker teacher, his aunt.I do monthly activities with him every week and this is his favorite snack. my niece buys Little Debbie's for his lunch. and my sisters and I have been enjoying them when our mom bought them home.

[@PfeiferHollz]

Hi! Can I substitute the cream of tartar? That’s one thing I forgot at the store!

[@SugarSpunRun]

Cream of tartar is a stabilizer here. It could potentially work but your filling may end up being pretty soft

[@thackeray4]

Hello, I made these and they are yummy. I didn’t make the filling right. The next day the filling turned to sugar granules in your mouth. I did bag them and refrigerate after they were made. Could that have caused it. They were creamy and yummy the day I made them. Soooo good.

[@SugarSpunRun]

O no! Humidity can normally cause the sugar crystals, but in this case the refrigerator probably caused it.

[@Rem694u2]

AND LITTLE DEBBIE TOOK THAT PERSONALLY!

[@SugarSpunRun]

🤣🤣🤣

[@derail6969]

As always I love to watch all your videos, I have a question,how to store them? I'd much rather make my husbands snacks then to buy those horrible snacks in the "box" . Will they stay moist but first if packaged in a heat sealed bag up to a week as I would put one a day in a lunch box?

[@yaxofossiad]

I've made these before and the recipe basically had me make a softer buttercream and add a jar of fluff. It was way too sweet and overwhelmed v the cookie, I will be trying this!

[@SugarSpunRun]

Hope you enjoy my version! ❤️

[@susandavis3544]

Sam, is it possible to use whole oats (5 min. oatmeal) instead of instant? I never use the instant. I'd hate to buy a box of instant just for one recipe. Would it help to toast (thus partially cooking the oats) the oats to speed up the baking process? These look absolutely yummy!

[@SugarSpunRun]

I prefer the texture with the instant oats, but you can use old fashioned/whole oats. No need to toast them 😊

[@susandavis3544]

@@SugarSpunRun I appreciate your quick response. I had an idea; if I put the old fashioned in my food processor for a second or two, would that be like the instant oats?

You could get away without having the cream of tartar in this one. It does add to the flavor but it won't ruin the recipe. :)

[@loreleiford700]

Would the dough turn out ok without corn starch? I can’t have corn at all, but these look absolutely wonderful.

[@SugarSpunRun]

It will still turn out. You may just need a touch more flour. The cornstarch helps keep the cookies really soft. :)

[@zaneblane8160]

I love oatmeal cookies and have a great recipe..but I don't like the big oatmeal flakes..anyway to make them less big?

[@SugarSpunRun]

You could run them through a food processor. :)

[@christinehubbard2035]

Can you skip the heating of the egg whites for the filling or is that because the sugar won’t dissolve otherwise? (I realize it’s also for safety but…salmonella pssh 🤣🤦🏽‍♀️)

[@christinehubbard2035]

Also I have been absolutely bingeing your videos lately! Loving it!

[@SugarSpunRun]

I don't think it will do well if the egg whites aren't heated. The heat does dissolve the sugar. I'm glad you've been enjoying the videos. :)

Wow, I use to eat Little Debbie's oatmeal cream pies, when I was younger, but I See Samantha's are a lot healthier. Can I use a hand mixer or food processor to make the marshmallow cream? Great job Sam and thanks! I will be making these Oatmeal Cream Pies.

[@SugarSpunRun]

If you don’t have a stand mixer, you can mix the filling with a hand mixer, but it will be quite an arm workout and will likely take 10 or more minutes. I'm not sure how a food processor would do; if you try it, please let me know how it goes for you! 😊

How can i prevent my Marshmallow from melting after minutes?

​​@@SugarSpunRunno i dont think it did,so i guess that was the reason. I will make another batch

[@mohammedpasha1715]

Looks so good. I think the filling is too much work though. If I make just cookies, do you recommend this recipe or your other oatmeal cookie recipe?

If you just want a cookie I would recommend my oatmeal cookies. These are really soft and meant to be made into a sandwich.
