Ingredients:
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Shortening | 1 cup |
| Eggs | 2 |
| Butter | 2/3 cup |
| Powdered Sugar | 3 cups |
| Vanilla Extract | 1 3/4 tsp |
| Cream (if needed) | As needed |
Instructions:
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Meanwhile, prepare a lightly greased cookie sheet.
-
In a mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, shortening, and eggs until well blended. This forms the base dough for your cookies, rich in chocolatey goodness.
-
Once the dough is mixed, roll it into balls roughly the size of walnuts. This step ensures uniformity in size and shape for your cookies, resulting in a visually appealing presentation.
-
Place the dough balls onto the prepared cookie sheet, leaving some space between each one to allow for spreading during baking.
-
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 7-8 minutes. It’s crucial not to overbake them to maintain their soft and chewy texture.
-
As the cookies bake, prepare the creamy filling. In another mixing bowl, combine the butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat the mixture until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency. If needed, add a little cream to achieve the desired texture.
-
Once the cookies are baked to perfection, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack. This step ensures that they firm up and are easier to handle when assembling the sandwiches.
-
Once the cookies are cooled, it’s time to assemble your sandwich cookies. Take one cookie and spread a generous amount of the creamy filling on the flat side.
-
Gently press another cookie on top to create a sandwich, with the filling oozing out slightly at the edges. Repeat this process until all cookies are paired up into delectable sandwiches.
-
Serve these Easy Chocolate Sandwich Cookies at your next gathering or indulge in them as a delightful treat any time of the day. Store any leftovers in an airtight container to keep them fresh for longer.
Enjoy the rich chocolatey flavor and creamy goodness of these Easy Chocolate Sandwich Cookies! They’re sure to become a favorite among friends and family alike.
