Devil Dogs Recipes

DEVIL DOGS

Steps:

• Cream together butter and 1 cup sugar, add egg. Sift together 2 cups flour, cocoa, soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt and baking powder. Add vanilla and milk.
• Drop by tablespoon full onto ungreased cookie sheet and bake 7-8 minutes at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Cool completely and make sandwiches using following filling.
• To Make Filling: Combine 2 1/2 tablespoons flour and 1/2 cup milk and cook until it turns to thick paste. Cool completely.
• Cream together the 1/2 cup sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 cup shortening, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. Add cooled paste and beat until fluffy. (This will take awhile and if your paste is not completely cooled it will look curdled. ) I usually double this recipe for the filling.

WHOOPIE PIES (OR DEVIL DOGS)

Steps:

• WHOOPIE PIES:.
• Mix the Crisco, sugar, and egg till fluffy.
• Slowly add the milk and vanilla; mix well.
• Add the flour, cocoa, soda, and salt.
• Beat well.
• Drop by spoonfuls on ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake at 350°F for 7-10 minutes.
• FILLING:.
• Using a jar for a shaker combine the milk, flour, and salt; shake well.
• Put this into a saucepan and cook slowly over medium heat till very thick and smooth, and then cool.
• In a electric mixer put the Crisco, sugar, and vanilla and beat about 5 minutes.
• Add the cooled paste and beat it for about 5 more minutes till very light and fluffy.
• I turn the mixer to high and beat it quite a while; it is worth it.
• Fill the pies and put into a baggie.
