How to Make Oreo Whoopie Pies Cookies Copycat Clone
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- **Cookies:**
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) Crisco shortening, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, and 2 large eggs until light and fluffy.
- Add ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, ½ cup water, and 2 cups all-purpose flour.
- In a separate bowl, combine 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 cup sour milk (or buttermilk).
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Drop by rounded teaspoons onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving space between each cookie.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- Let cookies cool completely on baking sheets before frosting.
- **Filling:**
- In a large bowl, cream together ½ cup (1 stick) Crisco shortening, ½ cup powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1 cup milk and 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour until smooth.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens significantly and comes to a gentle boil (about 5-7 minutes).
- Remove from heat and let cool completely to room temperature.
- Add the cooled milk mixture to the creamed shortening mixture.
- Beat with a mixer until smooth, fluffy, and no sugar grains remain.
- Spread a generous amount of filling onto the flat side of one cookie and top with another cookie to create a whoopie pie.
