Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (230g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup (200g) brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups (190g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3 cups (240g) rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups (250g) powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes). Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Gradually add this to the wet mixture, mixing until just incorporated.
  4. Stir in the rolled oats until evenly distributed. The dough will be thick.
  5. Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing each cookie about 2 inches apart. Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
  6. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. Prepare the filling by beating the butter until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and salt, mixing until smooth and fluffy.
  8. Spread a generous dollop of filling on the flat side of one cookie, then sandwich it with another cookie. Repeat until all cookies are paired and filled.

Notes

Chill the dough for 15 minutes before baking if cookies spread too much. Add a touch more cream to the filling if it’s too thick. Store pies in an airtight container for freshness.
