Oreos

These look great! I originally found them on recipezaar.com
Igredients
Dough
3/4 cup rice flour
3/4 cup
tapioca flour
3/4 cup
cornstarch
1 teaspoon
xanthan gum
2 teaspoons
egg substitute
2/3 cup cocoa
1 teaspoon
baking powder
1 teaspoon
baking soda
1/2 teaspoon
salt
3/4 cup
butter
1 cup
white sugar
1
egg
1 teaspoon
vanilla
1-2 teaspoon
milk
Filling
2 cups
confectioners' sugar
3 tablespoons
shortening
1/4 teaspoon
vanilla
2 tablespoons
hot water
Directions
1Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour mix, xanthan gum, egg replacer, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3In the bowl of the mixer, cream the margarine and sugar until light. Add the egg and vanilla and beat well. (Note: I don't have a heavy duty mixer, so I used a hand held one and I did have alittle trouble with the dough sticking to the beaters. So don't be discouraged if you have to keep pushing the dough off the beaters with a spatula, you aren't doing anything wrong. And don't worry I promise these cookies are well worth the trouble!).
4Add the dry ingredients in 3 additions. If the dough becomes too stiff, add the milk as needed.
5Shape the dough into two 10"x1-1/2" rolls. Wrap in foil and chill.Chill for about 15-20 minutes.
6Cut into 1/8" slices, if you have a cookie stamp, you can at this point press in onto the sliced cookies before baking. Bake these cookies on an UNGREASED cookie sheet for 10 minutes.
7Let cool for only a few minutes before removing from the cookie sheet. Cool thoroughly on a rack.
8For the filling, combine confectioners' sugar, shortening, vanilla and hot water ( use enough to create a good spreading texture.).
