I've seen & eaten a lot of sandwich cookies lately.
Mint Chocolate Chip Whoopie Pies
They inspired me to make my own
after I got my favorite PB cookie recipe from a co-worker.
1/2 c shortening
1/2 c peanut butter
1/2 c sugar
1/2 c brown sugar
2 eggs
1/2 t vanilla
1 1/2 c flour
1 t baking soda
1/8 t salt
FILLING:
1/2 c peanut butter
1 1/2 c confectioners' sugar
1/2 t vanilla
3-4 T milk
Cream together sugars, shortening & butter.
Add in eggs, vanilla and flour mixture.
Use a cookie scoop to scoop out same sized dough balls.
Use a fork to make the tradional PB pattern on the top of the cookies.
Bake at 375 for 7-8 minutes.
Let cool on the cookie sheet.
Let cookies cool completely and then assemble.

Kevin said these were his favorite cookies of all time.
I think I'd add more flour (ie high elevation in UT)
and make them a little smaller next time.
They were great the day of and the next day.

Those look A-Maz-Ing! I wonder how they would be with a fudgy filling? Thoughts?
ReplyDeleteThey were yummy and Kevin keeps asking me to make them again. I think you couldn't go wrong with a fudgy filling. Maybe you should try it out and see if they resemble your fave E L Fudge cookies??
