OATMEAL WHOOPIE PIES

Based on a recipe from The King Arthur Flour Cookie Companion cookbook. Since I live in Maine, where these are extrememly popular, I just had to try this recipe! I end up with a lot of marshmallow filling and I use it to make homemade marshmallows, often using a small cookie cutter to make them into shapes such as moose! They're a real hit in the hot chocolate when at camp and make great presents, particularly when presented alongside the whoopie pies themselves! The intro says, "These cookies are similar to the snack cake oatmeal pies -- two oatmeal cookies sandwiched around creme filling -- that you find at the grocery store. But instead of creme filling, we developed a rich, thick homemade marshmallow filling, which can be left plain, or flavored however you like (do we hear cinnamon?)."

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup vegetable shortening
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
3 tablespoons milk (regular or low fat, not nonfat)
2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
2 cups rolled oats
1 1/2 cups cold water
4 (1/4 ounce) packages unflavored gelatin
3 cups granulated sugar
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar (if making marshmallows)

Steps:

  • COOKIES:.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Lightly grease (or line with parchment paper) two baking sheets.
