Ingredients

Vegetable-oil cooking spray
3/4 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/3 cup unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar, sifted
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Sandwich Cookie Filling

Steps:

Line baking sheets with parchment paper; lightly coat with cooking spray. Whisk together flour, cocoa, and salt. With an electric mixer on medium-high speed, cream butter and confectioners' sugar until pale and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. With mixer on low speed, gradually add flour mixture, beating to combine. Divide dough in half; form into disks, and wrap in plastic. Chill until firm, at least 2 hours, or up to 2 days. (Dough can be frozen up to 2 months; thaw in the refrigerator before using.)
Working with one disk at a time, roll out dough to a 1/8-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Using a 1 1/2-inch square biscuit or cookie cutter, cut out shapes, transferring to prepared sheets (1 inch apart) as you work. Chill in freezer until firm, about 15 minutes. Brush off excess flour. Gather together scraps; roll, chill, and cut out more shapes.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Bake cookies, rotating sheets halfway through, until edges are firm, 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer cookies, on parchment, to a wire rack to cool completely.
Spread a small amount of filling on the bottom of half the cookies. Top with remaining cookies; gently press to adhere.

These cookies were a disaster. They spread out too much in the oven and they were burnt on the bottom.

I was a bit disappointed with these cookies. I found them to be too sweet and the texture was a bit dry.

I've tried many chocolate sandwich cookie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The cookies are soft and chewy, and the filling is creamy and delicious.
