Oatmeal Cream Cookies

One of my favorite cookie recipes from my sister in law, Pam.  Oatmeal cookies with a creamy marshmallow filling!

Oatmeal Cream Cookies

1 1/2 c. shortening

2 2/3 c. packed dark brown sugar

4 eggs

2 tsp. cinnamon

1/2 tsp. nutmeg

1 1/2 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. salt

Cream ingredients together and add:

4 cups old fashioned oats

2 1/4 cups flour

Drop by teaspoon fulls onto greased baking sheet and bake 12 minutes at 350 degrees.

Note: I've substituted light brown sugar and regular oats and they turn out fine.

Filling:

3/4 cup shortening

3 cups powdered sugar

1 container marshmallow cream (the big one)

1 - 3 T. milk

Cream together and place between layers of oatmeal cookies

YUM!
