Method
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas Mark 4. Line a large baking sheet with baking paper.
- Make up the egg replacer in a small bowl according to the packet instructions and beat it with a fork for a minute until bubbly.
- Sift the flour and baking powder into the bowl of an electric mixer.
Add the oats, sugar, margarine, egg replacer and peanut butter. Beat together on a slow speed for 2 minutes, or until the mixture comes together in clumps. Alternatively, place the ingredients in a large mixing bowl and beat with a fork. - Turn the dough onto a floured board and pat it into a cylinder shape.
Use a sharp knife to divide it into 12 equal pieces, then cut each piece in half again to form 24 pieces. Roll each piece of dough into a ball and place on the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each ball so that they are no more than 1 cm/½ inch thick. - Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until just golden. Lift the baking paper to transfer the cookies to a wire rack and allow to firm up for 15 minutes before removing from the paper. Allow to cool completely before adding the filling.
- To make the filling, beat the peanut butter, icing sugar, cocoa and margarine together until they are thoroughly combined and the mixture is smooth. The easiest way to do this is to put all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl and use a hand-held electric mixer, but you can also do it with a fork.
- When the cookies are cool, spread half of them generously with the chocolate peanut butter filling and sandwich together with the remaining cookies.
