WHOOPIE PIES - THE REAL DEAL - LANCASTER CO. RECIPE

Steps:

• Cream shortening, sugar and eggs.
• Add vanilla.
• Add milk alternately with dry ingredients and mix well. Add additional flour if needed to achieve proper consistency. (Note that the batter will also thicken as it stands, so you may wish to let it stand 15-30 minutes before baking. I usually turn my oven on at this point & let batter "rest" until the ovens are hot.).
• Drop onto greased (or sprayed) cookie sheets.
• Bake@ 350 for 8 minutes.
• Cool completely, then place one cookie upside down and coat with filling.
• Top with another cookie.
