I was looking to use up some hot cocoa so in addition to making brownies, I made these cookies.  I didn’t have time to chill the dough, so they spread a lot.  Because of that,  I made them into sandwiches.

Scoop your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount.  Also, I recommend chilling this dough for a few hours.

• Ingredients list
• 1/2 cup crisco
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1/2 cup hot cocoa
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 1/4 cups flour
• 1 tbs cornstarch
• 10 oreos, crushed
• 1 cup milk chocolate chips

• (You can add marshmallow bits too if you want)

Directions – in a bowl, cream crisco, sugar and brown sugar.  Add egg ans vanilla.   Stir in dry ingredients.  Fold in chips and oreos.  Scoop out 1/4 cups of dough.  Chill a few hours.  Line a sheet with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.   Stagger cookies on sheet.  Bake 10 to 12 minutes.  Cool completely.   Cut each in half.

• Filling ingredients
• 1/4 cup butter, softened
• 1 cup marshmallow fluff
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• Milk or heavy cream
• 1 tsp vanilla

Directions – in a bowl, blend together butter and fluff.  Slowly mix in powdered sugar.  Add enough milk or cream to get the consistency you want.  Add vanilla.  Spread between 2 cookies like this
