Chocolate Oatmeal Cream Pie Footballs Shugary Sweets Recipes

OATMEAL CREAM PIE

Steps:

• In large bowl, beat Crisco, brown sugar, granulated sugar, molasses, vanilla, and eggs.
• Add in the flour, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon. Mix in the oats.
• PRO TIP: Use a food processor to process the oats into smaller pieces. I usually give it a few pulses (you don't want fine crumbs).
• Drop by ONE tablespoon onto a parchment lined cookie sheet.
• Bake 8-10 minutes in a 350 degree oven, until just starting to brown around the edges. DON'T OVERCOOK!
• After cookies have cooled, combine hot water with salt and mix until salt is dissolved.
• In large bowl, beat marshmallow fluff with Crisco, powdered sugar and vanilla. Beat on high until fluffy. Add in salt water and mix until well combined.
• Spread filling on one cookie and press second cookie on top. Enjoy!

OATMEAL CREAM PIES WITH CHOCOLATE

Steps:

• Combine butter, brown sugar, and white sugar in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth creamy, 3 to 5 minutes. Beat in egg, 1 tablespoon milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
• Mix oats, flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a separate bowl. Beat into the creamed butter mixture on low speed. Fold in chocolate chips using a rubber spatula.
• Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate dough until firm enough to scoop, at least 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Scoop small balls of dough onto the lined baking sheets using a small cookie scoop.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 10 minutes. Let cookies sit on the baking sheets for 2 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Combine cream cheese and vegetable shortening in a bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Add marshmallow cream, 2 teaspoons milk, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract; mix well. Beat in confectioners' sugar, 1/4 cup at a time, until filling reaches a thick consistency.
• Scoop some of the filling onto the flat side of 1 cookie using the cookie scoop. Press another cookie on top to sandwich the filling. Repeat with remaining cookies and filling.
