For the Cookies

For the Cream Filling

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F.

Prepare the Cookie Dough

  • Add the softened butter, brown sugar and white granulated sugar to a large mixing bowl.
  • Use an electric hand mixer to cream the ingredients together on high speed for about 2 minutes or until the sugar is dissolved.
  • Add in the eggs and beat again until they’re fully combined.
  • Reduce the speed of your hand mixer.
  • Gently whisk in the old fashioned oats, quick oats, flour, baking soda, and baking powder.

Bake the Cookies

  • Use a standard size cookie scoop or large spoon to drop balls of cookie dough onto a greased or parchment paper lined baking sheet.
  • Flatten the top of each ball slightly to help the cookies spread out.
  • Bake for 11 minutes, then let them cool for 20 minutes on a wire rack.

Prepare the Cream Filling

  • While your cookies are baking, beat the butter and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.

Fill the Cookies

  • Use a piping bag or spatula to sandwich a generous amount of cream filling between two cooled cookies.
  • Repeat the process with your remaining cookies and cream filling.

Notes

Cool for 20 minutes before filling: Warm cookies soften the filling too much.
Watch butter temperature: Overly warm butter can cause spreading.
Flatten evenly: This helps the cookies bake uniformly.
Neaten edges if needed: A round cutter can tidy them while warm.
