These chocolate devil dogs filled with cream are the perfect dessert.
Ingredients
Filling
- ½ cup milk
- 2 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
- ½ cup white sugar
- ½ cup shortening
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Cake Batter
- 1 cup white sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 egg
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Make the cake batter: Beat sugar and butter in a mixing bowl with an electric mixer until creamy. Mix in egg.
Step 2
Sift flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together into a bowl. Gradually mix dry ingredients into wet ingredients. Mix in milk and vanilla.
Step 3
Drop heaping tablespoons of batter onto ungreased cookie sheets to make an even number of cookies; there should be about 24.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until cookies spring back when touched or a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
Step 5
While the cookies are cooling, make the filling: Whisk milk and flour together in a saucepan over low heat until a thick paste forms. Remove from the heat and cool completely.
Step 6
Beat sugar, shortening, vanilla, and salt in a bowl until creamy. Add cooled paste mixture and beat until fluffy; this could take some time and if paste is not completely cooled, it will look curdled.
Step 7
Spread filling onto half of the cooled cookies; sandwich with remaining cookies.
Tips
I usually double the filling ingredients when I make this recipe.
