Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • Filling:
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 4 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Line three baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Set aside.
  3. In stand mixer, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy (3 minutes). Beat in egg and vanilla.
  4. Alternate adding dry ingredients with buttermilk, mixing just until combined.
  5. Drop dough by tablespoons onto prepared sheets, spacing 2″ apart. Bake 10-12 minutes until edges just start turning golden. Cool completely.
  6. Filling: Beat cream cheese and butter until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt. Whip until fluffy.
  7. Pair similar-sized cookies. Pipe or spread filling on flat side of one cookie, then sandwich with another. Repeat.
  8. Refrigerate 30 minutes to set before serving. Store refrigerated in airtight container.

Notes

Tips: For uniform size, use a cookie scoop. Let cookies cool completely before filling to prevent melting.
Substitutions: Swap cream cheese filling with marshmallow fluff or vanilla buttercream.
Storage: Keep refrigerated up to 5 days. Freeze unfilled cookies for up to 2 months.
