- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup shortening and 1 ½ cups packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Stir in 3 cups rolled oats.
- Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of dough, about 2 inches apart, onto the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
- While cookies cool, prepare the frosting: In a medium bowl, cream together ½ cup granulated sugar and 1 cup shortening until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 1 cup marshmallow creme.
- Gradually add 2-4 tablespoons of milk, mixing until you reach a smooth, spreadable consistency.
- Once cookies are completely cool, spread a generous amount of frosting on the flat side of half of the cookies.
- Top with the remaining cookies to create sandwich cookies.
