Ingredients:

Instructions:
- In a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter, peanut butter, and both sugars until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes. Incorporate the egg and vanilla.
- Add salt, baking soda, and flour to the mixture, mixing on low speed to avoid overmixing. Fold in the chocolate chips and marshmallows.
