Time 42m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 and 3/4 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
2/3 cup (65g) unsweetened cocoa powder
1 and 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick/115g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
1 cup (200g) granulated sugar (or brown sugar)
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup (240 ml) buttermilk, room temperature
1/2 cup (1 stick/115g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
2 cups Marshmallow Fluff
1 cup (115 g/4 oz.) powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
pinch of salt

Steps:

  • Make the cakes: Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C. Sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. Line 2 baking pans with parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add egg, and vanilla and mix until combined, then mix in buttermilk. Slowly add dry ingredients, and mix just until combined.
  • Scoop mounds of batter, 1 and 1/2 tablespoons in size (I use this ice cream scoop), onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2-3 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the tops spring back when touched. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Make the filling: Place all ingredients in a large bowl and beat with a mixer until creamy and fluffy. If the filling is too stiff, you can add a little heavy cream or milk.
  • Assemble the cookies: Spread filling on the flat side of half the cookies. Sandwich with remaining cookies, pressing down slightly so that the filling spreads to the edge of the cookies.
  • Store in the fridge, well covered, for up to a week. Serve at room temperature.
