Soft Peanut Butter Cookies Recipe

Directions:

1. Cream together shortening, peanut butter and sugars.
2. Add vanilla.
3. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each one.
4. Mix together flour, baking soda and salt.
5. Add dry ingredients to creamed mixture.
6. Shape into 1 inch balls and place on ungreased baking sheets.

10. Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, beat filling ingredients until smooth.
11. Spread on one half of cool cookies and top each with another cookie.
