- Using a medium scoop, place cookies 2 in apart on cookie sheets.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, just until the edges are starting to golden.
- Let cookies cool for 5 minutes on pan, then remove to wire rack or counter to cool completely.
Cream Filling
- Beat together butter, powdered sugar and vanilla until no longer crumbly.
- Add a little water at a time to achieve desired consistency.
- Beat filling until creamy and slightly thick, 2-3 minutes.
Assemble Sandwiches
- Turn half of the cooled cookies over.

- Pipe the filling on the turned over cookies leaving a ¼" edge.
- Top with remaining cookies and gently make a sandwich.
Notes
Wrap pies in plastic wrap and store in an air tight container or zip top bag in the fridge or freeze. They will stay fresh longer in the fridge, but you can store on the counter for 3-4 days as well.
