How to Make Amish Oatmeal Whoopie Pie Cookies

  1. **Make the Oatmeal Cookie Dough:** In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, and 2 large eggs until light and fluffy.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  4. Stir in 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon and 2 cups rolled oats.
  5. In a small bowl, dissolve 1 teaspoon baking soda in 1 tablespoon hot water. Add this mixture to the cookie dough and mix well.
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  7. Bake at 325°F (160°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. **Make the Creamy Vanilla Filling:** In a medium bowl, beat 2 large egg whites until soft peaks form.
  10. Gradually add 1 cup powdered sugar, beating until stiff peaks form. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 2 tablespoons milk, and continue beating for another 2-3 minutes.
  11. Add 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter, beating until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the remaining 2 cups powdered sugar, beating until light and fluffy.
  12. Once the cookies are completely cool, spread a generous amount of filling onto the flat side of one cookie and top with another cookie to create a whoopie pie.
  13. Wrap each whoopie pie individually in plastic wrap and store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
