These buttery, cocoa-infused cookies are piped into beautiful rosettes and baked to tender perfection. Finished with a rich marshmallow buttercream sandwich, they make a stunning and delicious treat for any occasion.

  • Total Time: 18 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings (16 cookies, making 8 sandwich cookies)

Ingredients

Cookie Dough

  • 2/3 cup shortening
  • 1 3/4 cups white sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk (plus up to 1/4 cup more if needed)
  • 1 teaspoon red gel food coloring
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Filling

  • Approximately 1 tablespoon marshmallow buttercream per sandwich

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking your cookies.
  2. Cream shortening and sugar: In a stand mixer, beat together the shortening and sugar until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add eggs: Add eggs one at a time to the creamed mixture on medium-low speed, ensuring each is fully incorporated before the next.
  4. Combine wet ingredients: With the mixer on low, add vanilla extract, buttermilk, and red gel food coloring until fully mixed.
  5. Whisk dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt.
  6. Mix dry into wet: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients on low mixer speed, blending until a dough forms.
  7. Adjust dough consistency: If the dough feels too dry, add up to an additional 1/4 cup buttermilk to achieve a pipeable consistency.
  8. Pipe rosettes: Transfer small amounts of dough into a piping bag fitted with a 1M or 2D piping tip. Pipe individual rosettes onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  9. Bake cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 6 to 8 minutes. The cookies will still look slightly wet when done, which is normal. Allow them to cool to room temperature on the baking sheet.
  10. Assemble cookies: To create sandwiches, spread about 1 tablespoon of marshmallow buttercream on the bottom of one cookie, then top with another cookie and press gently to seal.

Notes

  • Do not add more than 1/4 cup extra buttermilk to avoid overly wet dough.
  • The cookies will look slightly wet when done baking; this is expected and ensures a soft texture.
  • Use a piping bag with a 1M or 2D tip for the best rose shapes.
  • Allow cookies to cool completely before assembling the sandwiches to prevent the buttercream from melting.
  • Marshmallow buttercream can be homemade or store-bought according to preference.
