  2. Grease or silpat a large cookie sheet.
  3. Combine dry ingredients.
  4. Combine coffee and sour milk
  5. In another bowl beat sugar and shortening until fluffy
  6. add eggs and vanilla.
  7. Beat well.
  8. Add flour mixture and sour milk mixture alternately, beginning and ending with flour.
  9. Drop by generous tablespoonfuls onto baking sheet,
  10. flatten slightly with wet fingers.
  11. Bake 10-12 minutes or until cookies spring back when touched lightly.
  12. Remove and cool completely.
  13. Filling
  14. In microwave safe bowl mix :1 c milk and 1/4 c flour until no lumps remain.
  15. Microwave, stirring every minute until thick like paste.
