Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookie Sandwiches
I love baby showers! These fun colorful cookies are to celebrate a virtual baby shower for my good blogging friend Maria from Two Peas and Their Pod. She is the sweetest little thing ever and I am excited to share my cookies for Maria with you all today!
Amanda and I have been all over the place together this month, so on her last day here in CA we decided to prepare our cookies together! We tag teamed here for these photos. It was so nice having her in my kitchen to bake with.
Hope you enjoy our cookies for Maria!
Here is some of our line up for the cookie dough. It was mighty tasty 🙂
How to Make The Best Oatmeal Cookie Sandwiches
You have no idea how handy it was to have two people to do this shot. It’s usually me trying to hold the bowl with one hand and snap the picture in the other hand. Love the action shots. So back to the picture….time to cream your butter and sugars.
Nothing like sugar and butter in a big bowl.
Add your eggies.
….and your vanilla.
Once your wet ingredients are mixed, slowly add your dry ingredients.
….and your chocolate chips.
Oh this dough was deadly. You gotta sample a little taste at this point.
Time to bake! 11-14 minutes at 350 degrees F.
While the cookies are baking, time to make the buttercream frosting. Butter, powdered sugar, milk and vanilla.
Frost the bottom of half of the cookies like so.
Dip the edges into your favorite colorful sprinkles.
All the way around.
Top with another cookie and voila’! Done.
Cute and colorful for any party.
