Oatmeal cream pies

Recipe in progress: I don’t remember exactly how these turned out, but I know they were pretty close. I’m pretty sure I still wanted them to be flatter and chewier. If I were to make them again, I would probably halve the recipe and see how it goes, and maybe add some more molasses.

Filling

This is as far as I got on the filling:

  • 1/4 cup marshmallow crème
  • ? powdered sugar
  • 1 Tbsp. coconut oil too soft, omit
  • 1/4 tsp. vanilla
  • Pinch of salt

Beat until smooth.
