Nutter Butters

I made these cookies for Sunday afternoon and they were gone within an hour or so. The kids LOVED them and so did Matt!

Nutter Butters

Cookies:
1/2 c shortening(I used butterflavored crisco)
2/3 c sugar
1 egg
1/2 tsp salt
3 T peanut butter
1/2 C old fashioned oats
1 c flour

Filling:
1/2 C peanut butter
3/4 C powdered sugar (this needs to be 1/2 c because I had to add milk to get the filling to stick together enough to put in the cookies)

Preheat oven to 325
In large bowl cream shortening and sugar. Add eggs, salt, and peanut butter and beat well. Put the oats in a blender and blend until it is oat flour (I forgot this step and so we just had regualar oats in the cookies and they turned out great). Add oats and flour and blend well. Roll dough in 1 in balls and place on cookie sheet flattening with the back of a cup. Bake for 8 to 10 min or until edges start to brown.
While cookies bake mix filling. Once cookies are cooled put the filling in the cookies and enjoy! They are super yummy!
