Back when I was a kid, I had my first ever Fluffernutter: a sandwich consisting of peanut butter and Marshmallow Fluff. The thing was chewy and gummy as all get out, but it was rather good.
Now, when I find that I’m in a pinch to come up with a lunch idea, I make myself a Fluffernutter. The things are dangerously addictive, and right tasty. Plus, yes, they’re easy to make and you can’t buy them prepackaged! As an added bonus, Fluff is Kosher and is gluten-free. Yum!
For Fluff fans, the official Fluff site is worth visiting, if not for just the Fluffernutter jingle that plays automatically. There are a series of recipes featured on the site – including Never Fail Fudge and Whoopie Pies. Plus, the FAQ, with riveting questions such as, My Never Fail Fudge failed. Why?. You can also order a snazzy Fluff beach towel – unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, it contains no actual Fluff. -pm

I used to be a pastry chef at a resort which changed their menus every month. I loved fluffernutter sandwiches when I was a kid and wanted to create one for the restaurant. I make a peanut butter dough with powdered sugar and crispy cereal flakes. then make a sundae. chocolate sauce then peanuts, roasted banana ice cream. peanut butter dough, chopped bananas, peanuts and choco sauce again more roasted banana gelato then top it off with fluff or an italian meringue and torch until toasty brown. YUM. That dessert did not leave the menu for a year. Hope you all try it!!
