Method
Prepare the Cookie Base
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
- Drop tablespoon-sized amounts of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Make the Buttercream
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar and mix until smooth and fluffy.
- Mix in the maple syrup and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Assemble the Sandwich Cookies
- Once the cookies are completely cool, spread a generous amount of buttercream on the flat side of one cookie.
- Top with another cookie, flat side down, to create a sandwich.
- Repeat until all cookies are assembled.
