Preparation
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 ¾ cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice along with 3 cups of old-fashioned oats. Mix until well combined.
- In your stand mixer, fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together 1 cup of room-temperature unsalted butter, 1 cup of packed brown sugar, and ½ cup of white granulated sugar on high speed for about 2 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Next, add in 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract, ½ tablespoon of molasses, and 2 large eggs. Mix on medium speed until fully combined.
- Gradually incorporate your dry mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
- Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes while preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lining two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Use a cookie scoop to portion out the dough, forming approximately 36 cookies, and place on baking sheets.
- Bake the cookies for 8–9 minutes, or until just set and lightly golden around the edges. Allow to cool for 4 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack.
- In a clean mixing bowl, beat together 1 cup of room-temperature unsalted butter and 7 ounces of marshmallow fluff on high speed until light and fluffy.
- To the butter and fluff mixture, add 1 cup of sifted powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and ¼ teaspoon of salt. Mix on low speed until combined, then increase to high speed for another 4 minutes until airy and spreadable.
- Assemble the Oatmeal Cream Pies by spreading a generous amount of the marshmallow filling onto one cookie and sandwiching with another cookie.
- Chill the finished pies in the freezer for at least 10 minutes to let the filling set.
- Store any leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
