Instructions
- Preheat the toaster oven to 350°F. Spray a toaster oven sheet pan with nonstick cooking spray or line it with a small piece of parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together ½ cup unsalted butter, ½ cup brown sugar, and 3 tablespoons granulated sugar with a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
- Add 1 large egg and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and mix just until combined, scraping down the bowl as needed.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1½ cups old-fashioned rolled oats, ½ cup all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon kosher salt.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. The dough will be thick and should hold together.
- Use a tablespoon to portion dough into balls and place them on the prepared sheet pan (depending on pan size, about six cookies per batch). Leave space between cookies to spread.
- Gently press each dough ball down to flatten slightly before baking.
- Bake at 350°F for up to 15 minutes, checking at the 10-minute mark; bake until the tops are lightly browned. Toaster oven times and heat can vary, so watch closely.
- Transfer baked cookies to a wire rack and let them cool completely. Repeat baking in batches until all dough is used.
- Make the filling: in a bowl, beat 1½ cups powdered sugar, 3½ ounces marshmallow creme, and ⅓ cup vegetable shortening with an electric mixer until smooth.
- Add 1 tablespoon half and half and blend until the filling is smooth and spreadable. Add additional half and half, a small amount at a time, if needed to reach the desired consistency.
- Assemble cookies: spread or pipe the filling onto the flat side of one cooled cookie, top with a second cookie, and press gently to create a sandwich.
Notes
Toaster oven times and heat can vary; watch closely during baking.
