Creme Wafer Cookies

In case you missed this post when I shared it over at DJs Sugar Shack, here it is again because you won't want to miss this recipe!

I was lucky to be part of a bridal party back in July and stumbled upon these AMAZING cookies on a cookie tray at the wedding. I desperately sought out the baker of the cookies and begged for the recipe (fortunately it was my neighbor so I didn't have to beg too much)! They are so light & flaky & delicious & downright addictive!

Creme Wafer Cookies

Ingredients:

• 1 Cup + 1/4 Cup Butter, Softened
• 1/3 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream
• 2 Cups All-Purpose Flour
• 1/3 Cup White Granulated Sugar
• 3/4 Cup Sifted Powdered Sugar
• 1 Tsp Vanilla

Directions:

• Mix 1 cup of softened butter with flour. Once well-combined, stir in heavy whipping cream. Chill at least 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Spread granulated sugar out on a piece of wax or parchment paper.
• On a floured surface, roll dough to about 1/8" thickness. Using a shot glass, or pill bottle, cut dough into 1.5" rounds. Keep any dough not in use back in the fridge so it stays cold.
• Place each round onto granulated sugar and turn to coat both sides.
• Place rounds on an ungreased cookie sheet, prick several times with a fork and bake for 7-9 minutes. Cookies should look slightly puffy when ready.
• While cookies are cooling, prepare filling: Mix 1/4 cup softened butter, 3/4 cup sifted powdered sugar, 1 tsp vanilla and food coloring.
• Assemble cookies by spreading filling between 2 wafer rounds.

These cookies would be perfect for a tea party! Or a baby shower! Or a birthday! Or a Tuesday!

Enjoy!
