Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In large bowl with electric mixer, make chocolate wafers by mixing together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Beat in 1/2 cup butter and egg until dough comes together. Drop 48 rounded teaspoons of dough onto baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Slightly flatten dough with fingers.
Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until cookies look set. Let cool.
In medium bowl, make cream filling by combining 1/4 cup butter and shortening. Gradually beat in confectioners’ sugar and vanilla until filling is fluffy. Place a teaspoon of filling onto center of one chocolate wafer and lightly press another chocolate wafer on top until cream comes to edge. Repeat with remaining wafers.
Serve immediately or store in airtight container.
