Red Velvet Moon Pies

For the cookies:
Preheat oven to 375 F. In a medium sized bowl, combine all of the cookie ingredients to make slightly stiff dough. Scoop 1 ½ tablespoon-sized scoops of the mixture onto a greased cookie sheet, leaving about 2 inches between. Press down so that each is roughly ¼” thick. Try to make the batter scoops as even as possible since you will have to pair these up evenly! This should make 24 cookies.

Bake at 375 F for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.

For the filling:
In a medium-sized saucepan over medium-low heat melt the butter. Add marshmallows and frosting. Stir constantly with a small whisk until melted and combined. Remove from heat. Let it cool until not runny. Spread the frosting onto the flat side of half (12) of the cookies. Set them aside. Let the filling firm up enough that topping the cookies with another one won’t cause the filling to ooze over the side. Top each cookie with the remaining cookies. Let them cool completely.

For the coating:
Melt the candy coating according to package instructions.

Dip each cookie sandwich into the melted chocolate to coat on both sides and edges. Let them cool and dry on a sheet of wax paper.
