Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl, and mix until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding them in until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the shredded coconut until evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
Using a medium cookie scoop or tablespoon, scoop out portions of dough and flatten slightly in your hands. Add a small dollop (about 1/2 teaspoon) of marshmallow fluff to the center of each portion.
Carefully wrap the dough around the marshmallow fluff, sealing it inside, and roll into a smooth ball.
Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them at least 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Be careful not to overbake, as the cookies should remain soft and chewy.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
