Welcome to Baking it Rich!

Hello, and thank you for viewing my blog! Since I was a child I have always loved baking. So, I thought it would be a great idea to create a place online where I could share recipes, pictures, and tips on baking with other people who enjoy the same thing. Please feel free to look around, comment, share, post, follow (must sign in with gmail) and most importantly, try out some recipes!

Hope to hear from you,

Giant Cookie Sandwiches!


Giant Cookie Sandwiches! (Or small ones if you wish) 



These cookies are great for parties or family snacks! I like to make the giant cookies and cut pieces off for my family and friends, but some people would rather have smaller, portioned pieces. Whatever you decide to do, the size does not effect the taste! Enjoy! 

Ingredients

Cookies

  • 3/4 stick Crisco® Butter Flavor All-Vegetable Shortening Sticks or 3/4 cup Crisco® Butter flavor All-Vegetable Shortening

  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 3/4 cups Pillsbury BEST® All Purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 (6 oz.) package semi-sweet chocolate chips (1 cup)

Frosting/Filling

  • 1/4 c. softened butter

  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 2 tbsp milk

  1. Combine brown sugar and shortening. 
  2. Beat in milk, vanilla and egg. 
  3. In a separate bowl mix flour, salt, and baking soda. 
  4. Add together wet and dry ingredients.
  5. Use extra flour to roll them out into two huge cookies. (If you decide to make small cookies, then roll out smaller, flat cookies)

  8. While you wait, mix together the frosting! Cream together the powdered sugar and butter. Then, add vanilla, milk, and chocolate.
