Steps:

• Roll dough into 1" balls. Place about 2" apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
• Note: if dough is too sticky to roll into balls easily, refrigerate for a short time.
• Bake cookies 8 to 11 minutes at 350. Cookies should still be soft but the tops will have a cracked appearance when done.
• Remove cookies from baking sheets to cool.
• Allow to cool completely.
• Choose 2 cookies that are the same size and shape. Place about 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of frosting on the bottom of one cookie. Put the two cookies together bottoms facing each other to form the sandwich.
• Note: I like to use the following combinations, but feel free to experiment. Chocolate cookie with fudge frosting, chocolate cookie with vanilla frosting, white cake with vanilla frosting (add about 1/2 teaspoon of almond extract to the frosting), carrot cake cookies with chream cheese frosting, funfetti cookies with rainbow chip frosting (kids love this one for the colors).

Transfer filling to bag; pipe onto bottom halves of cookies. Cover with remaining cookies., For glaze, microwave chocolate chips and shortening on high until melted, stirring every 30 seconds; add extract. Dip about two-thirds of each cookie into glaze, allowing excess to drip off; top with crushed candy canes. Place on waxed paper; refrigerate until set.
