These are one of my absolute favorite snack cakes. I never even imagined making these at home, but then I found this recipe! This is such a great alternative to buying them from the store! It was very easy to follow, and the end result was absolutely delicious! They are so soft, and actually, better than store bought. I will be making these again!

Oh, my goodness these oatmeal sandwiches bring back so many memories from when I was a kid. I've never been much into the chocolate or most of the junk kids ate back then and today but I sure did love those oatmeal cookies with the filling...Little Debbies I think they were called. Today premade snacks have so much bad stuff in them I avoid them, so having a recipe where I can control what's in it makes it so much worth the work and I love that there's marshmallow fluff in the filling. Yum!

These were really delicious and even better IMHO than the store-bought classics! I remember eating those when I was younger and this was even softer and tasted very similar.
