Ingredients

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F. Make cookie dough, using oil, water and egg, and bake as directed on package. Cool completely.
  • 2
    Spoon about 1 teaspoon of marshmallow creme on the bottom of half of the cookies. Top each with a second cookie, bottom side down; gently press together.
  • 3
    In small saucepan, heat peanut butter chips and shortening over low heat, stirring frequently, until melted and smooth. Spoon about 2 teaspoons peanut butter mixture over each cookie, spreading with back of spoon over top and side. Place on waxed paper. Let stand 30 minutes or until set.

  • Use the leftover marshmallow creme to make easy s’mores—just spread on a graham cracker, top with a piece of chocolate candy bar (softened slightly in the microwave) and a second graham cracker.
  • If you love peanut butter cups, you'll love these cookies. My children received a candy for Valentine's Day that gave me the idea to make these chocolate sandwich cookies with peanut butter on the outside.
