Ingredients
Cake:
½ c. butter
1 c. sugar
1 egg
½ c. cocoa powder
2 c. all-purpose flour
1½ tsp. baking soda
½ tsp. baking powder
1 c. milk (or buttermilk)

Filling:
½ c. vegetable shortening

2 c. confectioner's sugar
2 c. Marshmallow Fluff (this really makes it authentic!)
1 tsp. vanilla
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425 and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cream butter and sugar until fluffy (this takes a few minutes).
Add egg and blend well, then add vanilla.
Sift dry ingredients and add to creamed mixture, alternating spoonfuls with the milk/buttermilk.
Scoop about 2 Tb. batter onto each baking sheet to form 6 mounds.
Bake 5-7 minutes or until the tops are puffed and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove from oven and cool.
Meanwhile, make the Filling by placing ingredients into a mixing bowl. Bend by hand or with a hand mixer on medium until smooth. Spread filling between cooled cookies and enjoy!
