FOR THE COOKIES:
1/2 cups Shortening
1/4 cups Butter, Softened
1 cup Packed Brown Sugar
1 whole Egg
2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
1-1/2 cup Flour
1 cup White Baking Chips
FOR THE FILLING:
1/4 cups Butter
1/2 teaspoons Orange Zest
1/4 cups Milk
1/4 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
1 dash Salt
2 cups Powdered Sugar

1
Preheat your oven to 350u00b0F.
2
To make the cookies, in a large bowl cream the shortening, butter, and brown sugar until well combined. Add the egg and mix. Add the vanilla and baking soda and mix. Add the flour and mix until everything is incorporated. Fold in the chips.
3
Drop about 1 round tablespoon of dough onto an ungreased baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie. I do smaller cookies with this since you are eating 2 cookies. Bake for 8-10 minutes (I do 10 minutes) until golden brown. Let rest on the cookie sheet for one minute before removing to a counter to cool.
4
To make the filling, in a large bowl mix together the butter and orange zest until smooth. I definitely recommend a stand or hand mixer for this. Add the milk, vanilla, and salt and mix until combined. Add the powdered sugar 1 cup at a time, mixing until smooth.
5
To assemble the cookies: Once the cookies are cool, pair up the cookies so they match in size and shape. Place 1-2 tablespoons of filling on the bottom of one cookie. Place the second cookie cookie on the filling (bottom side touching the filling) and squish together until you can see the filling.
