If there’s a serious lack of peanut butter in your life, you should double up. There’s always a time and a place for peanut butter cookie sandwiches stuffed with more peanut butter. Today’s cookie sandwiches are ridiculously peanut buttery—just like my peanut butter cookies, they’ll have you reaching for a cold glass of milk!
These Peanut Butter Cookie Sandwiches Are:
Just like Nutter Butters but totally homemade Crisp on the edges Super chewy with soft centers Sweet and a little salty Filled with a thick peanut butter filling
How to Make Peanut Butter Cookie Sandwiches
We’ll take two peanut butter oatmeal cookies and sandwich them together with a deliciously thick peanut butter filling. I recommend using a non-natural peanut butter, like Jif or Skippy. (Natural or homemade varieties are a little too oily.)
No Chill Cookie Recipe
This is a no-chill cookie recipe. No waiting around for cookie dough to chill! This dough is pretty sturdy and won’t over-spread in the oven, so that’s why it’s okay to skip the chilling step. In fact, these cookies need a little nudge in the spreading direction. What I like to do is take a measuring cup or the bottom of a glass and gently press the dough balls down before baking. (Watch how I do this in the video above. So simple.) I have plenty more no chill cookie recipes like giant chocolate chip cookies, pumpkin oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, and lace cookies. Shortbread wedges are another option that don’t even require any dough shaping either—they bake up right in a cake pan! P.S. Do you like Oreo cookies? Try my homemade Oreos next, for another homemade version of a familiar packaged cookie.
Peanut Butter Filling
The peanut butter cookies are incredible, but the filling is the center of attention. Made with 3 simple ingredients—peanut butter, confectioners’ sugar to thicken, and honey to smooth it out. I added the honey at the last minute and I’m so glad I did! This peanut butter filling is super peanut buttery and doesn’t taste overly sweet like frosting. Rather, it’s like a very thick and smooth peanut butter. You can spread or pipe the filling between two cookies. I used my Wilton #12 round tip. Honestly, it tastes good no matter how it’s slathered on.
