Ingredients

• 1 Cup peanut butter
• 1 Cup butter flavored shortening
• 1 Cup white sugar
• 1 Cup brown sugar, packed
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) vanilla extract
• 3 Large eggs
• 3 Cups all-purpose flour
• 2 Teaspoons (tsp) baking soda
• 0.25 Teaspoon (tsp) salt
• 0.5 Cup creamy peanut butter
• 3 Cups confectioners' sugar
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) vanilla extract
• 5 Tablespoons (tbsp) milk

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the shortening, 1 cup of creamy peanut butter, white sugar, and brown sugar. Add the vanilla extract and then the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
3. In a separate small bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the creamy mixture, mixing until well combined.
4. Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on an ungreased cookie sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart. Flatten each ball with a fork.
5. Bake the cookies for 7-8 minutes, keeping a close eye on them. Remove them from the oven as soon as they start to turn golden to ensure they remain chewy. Cool the cookies on wire racks.
6. To make the filling, combine 0.5 cup of creamy peanut butter, confectioners' sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and milk in a small bowl. Add enough milk to achieve a creamy, frosting-like texture.
7. Spread the filling on one cookie and top it with another to create a sandwich. Enjoy your delicious Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies!
