Homemade Little Debbie Oatmeal Creme Pie Cookies

Recipe by Claire Saffitz x Dessert Person

A copycat version of the classic Little Debbie Oatmeal Creme Pie, featuring ultra‑soft, slightly chewy oatmeal‑molasses cookies sandwiched with a fluffy marshmallow‑style filling. The recipe mimics the original’s subtle molasses‑raisin flavor while adding a hint of warm spice and a golden hue from turmeric. Makes 12 sandwich cookies (24 individual cookies).

Critical Success Points

  • Process dry ingredients until oats are fine
  • Achieve proper dough consistency by adding flour gradually
  • Do not over‑bake cookies; watch for cracks and color
  • Heat sugar syrup to exactly 222°F before adding gelatin
  • Incorporate hot syrup into whipped egg whites slowly to create stable marshmallow fluff

Safety Warnings

  • Hot sugar syrup reaches >220°F – handle with care to avoid burns.
  • Molasses and oil are sticky – wash utensils promptly to prevent buildup.
  • Use oven mitts when handling hot baking sheets.
