It all started with a bit of chaos because there was flour on the floor and a rogue egg rolling under the table while two kids laughed like wild hyenas which is why the best baking days in our kitchen usually begin that way.

We weren’t planning anything fancy since we just wanted something sweet and simple that’s why we looked for a treat with a little crunch as well as a little creaminess and a whole lot of mmm. That’s when these sandwich sugar cookies came into play because soft buttery cookies hugging a smooth vanilla filling sound pretty dreamy and they absolutely are.

The best part is that you don’t need fancy tools nor strange ingredients since you probably already have everything you need. My youngest even said it’s like Oreos except that they’re homemade and happier so I’ll take that as a win.

That filling may be just vanilla yet it’s so easy and so good that it feels like the middle of a cupcake decided to level up.So go ahead and grab a mixing bowl along with a buddy or two so that you can bake something that looks adorable and tastes just like childhood joy.
