Ingredients
for the cookies-
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup sugar
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon liquid red food coloring
for the filling-
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup vegetable shortening
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
- 1 tablespoon hot water
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- To make the cookies, whisk flour, cocoa baking soda, baking powder and salt into a bowl to combine.
- Beat the sugar and butter in a mixing bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and food coloring. Add in the dry ingredients and stir until the dough comes together.
- Form the dough into balls {about 1 tablespoon each} and place the dough balls at least 3 inches apart on baking sheets. Flatten the balls slightly with the bottom of a drinking glass. Bake 7-8 minutes or until edges start to set. Cool 5 minutes on baking sheets before removing to cooling rack.
- To make filling, beat powdered sugar with shortening, butter, water and vanilla in a mixing bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
- Place filling in a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2 inch round tip. Pipe filling onto one cookie and top with another cookie, pressing together slightly to spread the filling. Serve, or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
