Ingredients

Amish Whoopie Pie Recipe

Cookies:

1 cup shortening

2 cups sugar

1 cup hot water with 2 tsp baking soda

4 1/2 cups flour

4 eggs

3/4 cup cocoa

1 cup sour milk

2 tsp vanilla

1 or 2 shakes of salt

Filling:

1 cup milk

1 cup shortening

4 Tbls flour

1 tsp vanilla

1 cup sugar

Directions

1.. Mix cookie ingredients together. Batter is slightly thick so it can be dropped from a teaspoon. Drop onto cookie sheets into small rounds, trying to keep them roughly the same size. Bake at 375 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 8-10 minutes on an ungreased cookie sheet.

2.. For the filling: cook together the milk and flour until thick. Place in a small bowl and add sugar, shortening and vanilla. Beat until spread-able.

3.. Choose two cookies about the same size, spread some filling on one and place the other one on top, bottoms together

Michigan has a large population of Amish in the lower west side.. I don't think I have ever met a harder working people. Their foods and hand made items are wonderful.. If you are lucky to be able to afford one of their quilts.. you have a priceless item to hand down for years..

Those look good too girl, glad you posted the filling too. Those Amish folks sure do know how to cook. I agree about the quilts, I fell in love with one when I was in Penn. on vacation. Just couldn't afford that one, it was way up there in price but talk about gorgeous, it was a work of art.

Hope you make and let me know what you think about it, not everyone likes to use Shortning in their frosting.
