You may have better luck doing an internet recipe search for Whoopie pies rather than cookies. Why they're called pies, I don't know! For the cookie part of the recipe, I think any very soft cookie recipe would work. The filling is the tricky part. Here's the best recipe I've found.

1/2 cup solid vegetable shortening
1/2 cup softened butter
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
2 cups Marshmallow Fluff
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract.

Beat the first four ingredients together, then stir in the vanilla until well blended.

You can almost feel this stuff hardening in your arteries, but it makes a delicious filling for all sorts of cookies such as chocolate chip and oatmeal, and is also very tasty spread on things like banana bread or croissants. I store it in the fridge and set it out to warm up to spreadable temperature before I use it.
