Method

  • For Chocolate Cookies:

  • Preheat oven to 190 degrees C and place oven rack in the center of the oven. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

  • In a large bowl sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and baking soda. Set to the side.

  • In a seperate bowl beat the stork and sugar till light and fluffy. Add the egg beating well. Beat in the vanilla.

  • In a small measuring cup mix the buttermilk and coffee(or water).

  • Slowly mix in half the flour mixture. Then add the buttermilk mixture. Finish adding the flour mixture.

  • Drop batter using a spoon (which ever size you are looking to make). I use a tablespoon. Onto the baking sheet about 2 inches apart. With moistened finger smooth the tops of the cookies.

  • Bake for 9-10 minutes for tablespoon size (about 5 minutes for teaspoon size) or until the tops of the cookies when lightly pressed spring back. Remove from oven and transfer to a wire rack for cooling.

  • Frosting Filling:

  • Beat the Trex and butter until soft and creamy. Gradually beat in the icing sugar. Beat on high speed for about 5 minutes. Beat in the vanilla and slowly drizzle in the golden syrup. Continue to beat until the filling looks like soft mayoniase.

  • Assemble:

  • Take one cookie and spread a heaping spoonful of filling on the flat side of the cookie. Top with another cookie.

  • Makes about 15 sandwhich cookies for tablespoon size about 30 for teaspoon size.

    One of my oldest memories is of my grandfather taking me to the local boston bakery to get the Cookie Monster Whoopie Pie and when I got old enough my grandma taught me to make it
