Instructions
MAKE THE COOKIES:
Preheat the oven to 350°F and have ready a baking sheet lined with either parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Add oats, flour, cornstarch, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon to a food processor and pulse until oats are fine crumbs. Set aside.
Add butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar to a large bowl and use a handheld mixer to mix on medium-high speed for about 3 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing after each addition. Next, add the molasses and vanilla. Mix once more.
Add dry ingredients and mix on low until combined.
Drop generous tablespoon-sized batter on the prepared baking sheet 2” apart, and bake for 10-12 minutes. Remove the cookies from the oven, and after about 10 minutes, transfer them over to a cooling rack to cool completely.
MAKE THE FILLING:
Add the butter, marshmallow fluff, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and sea salt to a medium-sized mixing bowl and begin mixing on low speed. When the ingredients appear mostly combined, increase the speed to medium-high and mix until smooth.
ASSEMBLE THE COOKIES:
Turn half of the cookies bottom-side up and add a generous tablespoon of filling to the center. Top with the remaining cookies and press down gently until the filling reaches the edges of the cookies.
