Ingredients
PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
- 1/2 cup butter softened to room temperature, unsalted
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar packed
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup peanut butter creamy
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1 cup old fashioned oats
BUTTERCREAM FILLING
- 1 1/2 cups butter 3 sticks) softened to room temperature, unsalted
- 2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 Tbsp heavy whipping cream
EXTRAS
- 1/2 cup peanuts optional, crushed
Instructions
MAKE THE COOKIES
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar and peanut butter until light and fluffy. Add in the egg and vanilla, mixing until combined.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt. Add half of the flour mixture into the wet mixture and beat until combined.
- Add the remaining flour and mix again. Stir in the oats.
- Form balls 1 1/2 to 2 Tbsp in size, or use a cookie scoop for more uniformly sized cookies. Place on a cookie sheet 2 inches apart. Bake for 8-10 minutes, just until the tops are set.
- Allow the cookies to cool for a few minutes before removing them to a cooling rack. Cool completely before filling the cookies.
MAKE THE FILLING
- Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat the butter for a few minutes until light and fluffy. Slowly add in the powdered sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, and continue mixing in between each addition. The mixture will appear very crumbly at this point.
- Add in the vanilla and heavy cream and continue mixing until the texture changes to be smooth and creamy.
ASSEMBLE THE COOKIE SANDWICHES
- Fill a piping bag with buttercream and use a 1M tip for a ruffled look or you can cut the tip of the bag off for a more solid look.
- Alternatively, spread the buttercream onto the flat side of a cookie and sandwich another one, flat side down, on top.
- If using the crushed peanuts, place them on a plate. Once a cookie sandwich has been assembled, roll the edges in the crushed nuts. Repeat with all remaining cookie sandwiches.
