   MMMMM--------------------------FILLING-------------------------------   
         3 tb A-P flour   
           ds Salt   
         1 c  Milk   
       3/4 c  Shortening   
     1 1/2 c  Confectioners' sugar   
         2 ts Vanilla extract   
       
     Set oven @ 350ºF/175ºC.   
        
     In a bowl, combine cocoa and water. Cool for 5 minutes.   
     In a large bowl, cream shortening and sugar until light   
     and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Beat in the eggs, vanilla and   
     cocoa mixture. Combine dry ingredients; gradually add to   
     creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk, beating   
     well after each addition.   
        
     To form each cookie, drop 2 teaspoon dough 2 in. apart   
     onto greased baking sheets. Bake until firm to the   
     touch, 10-12 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool.   
        
     For filling, in a small saucepan, combine flour and   
     salt. Gradually whisk in milk until smooth; cook and   
     stir over medium-high heat until thickened, 5-7 minutes.   
     Remove from heat. Cover and refrigerate until completely   
     cool.   
        
     In a bowl, cream the shortening, confectioners' sugar   
     and vanilla until light and fluffy, 3-4 minutes. Add   
     milk mixture; beat until fluffy, about 7 minutes. Spread   
     filling on half the cookies; top with remaining cookies.   
     Store in the refrigerator.
