Ingredients
Method
Baking the Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes).
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring they’re well incorporated, followed by the vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the creamed mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Stir in the rolled oats until fully combined.
- Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop dough onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
- Let cool on sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
Making the Cream Filling
- In a medium bowl, beat together the powdered sugar, softened cream cheese, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
- Once the cookies are completely cool, spread the filling on the flat side of half the cookies and top with the remaining cookies.
Serving Suggestions
- Dust with powdered sugar right before serving if desired.
Notes
For extra flavor, toast the oats before adding them to the dough. Adjust spices to your liking.
