These are SO good:) And rich, as far as cookies go, but I still find it easy to put away more than my fair share of these! I found this in my grandmother's collection, so that tells me that these have been pleasing hungry snackers for some time! My son absolutely LOVES these:)

Time 50m

Yield 30 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar or 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
1 cup butter, softened
1 large egg yolk
2 cups flour
2 tablespoons butter
1 1/4 cups powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 -5 teaspoons milk

Steps:

  • COOKIES: In a large bowl, cream together the butter and brown sugar until fluffy.
  • Add the egg yolk; blend well.
  • Add the flour; mix well.
  • If necessary, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill about 15 minutes for easier handling.
  • Preheat oven to 325°F.
  • Shape dough into 1" balls; place 2" apart on ungreased or parchment-lined cookie sheets.
  • With a fork dipped in flour, flatten each cookie in one direction to a 1 1/2" round.
  • Bake for 10-14 minutes or until light golden brown.
  • Cool for 1 minute on the sheets; transfer cookies to wire racks and cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, make the FROSTING: In a medium saucepan, heat the butter over medium heat until light golden brown, stirring constantly.
  • Remove pan from heat; stir in the remaining frosting ingredients, adding enough milk for desired spreading consistency; blend until smooth.
  • Spread a scant 1 tsp frosting between 2 cooled cookies, flat sides inward.
  • Store in the refrigerator.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use high-quality chocolate. A good semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate will work well.
  • Make sure the butter is softened to room temperature before creaming it with the sugar. This will help to create a smooth and creamy batter.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before filling them. This will help to prevent the filling from melting.
  • For a richer flavor, use homemade caramel sauce. You can find a recipe for caramel sauce online or in a cookbook.
  • If you don't have time to make your own caramel sauce, you can use store-bought caramel sauce. Just be sure to choose a high-quality brand.
  • Sprinkle the cookies with sea salt before serving for a sweet and salty flavor combination.

Conclusion:
