Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined. Drop spoonfuls of batter onto a lined baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the tops spring back when lightly touched. Remove from the oven and let cool completely. In a small bowl, mix together the marshmallow fluff, powdered sugar, and vegetable shortening to make the filling. Spread the filling on the flat side of one cookie and sandwich with another cookie. Repeat with the remaining cookies. Let the whoopie pies rest for 10 minutes before serving.
