COFFEE SANDWICH COOKIES RECIPE
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup butter soft
- 1 1/4 cups sugar
- 2 eggs room temperature
- 2 tbsp of ground coffee (I used Melitta Traditional Premium R&G)
- 1 1/4 tsp vanilla
- 2 cups flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
HOW TO MAKE COFFEE SANDWICH COOKIES
In a mixer, cream together butter and sugar. In a small bowl, combine eggs, vanilla, and coffee mix fully. In another bowl add all dry items together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Begin to slowly add the egg mixture to the butter mixture. Mix well and slowly add flour mixture until fully combined, do not over mix.
Place the dough in your refrigerator for at least one-two hours.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Roll out dough on floured solid surface to about 1/2 inch thick. Using a circle cookie cutter, punch out circles and place on a parchment lined baking sheet.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until edges are slightly golden. Allow cookies to cool completely before filling with the icing between 2 cookies.
ICING Ingredients FOR THE COFFEE SANDWICH COOKIES
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) salted butter
- 1 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2-3 cups powdered sugar, sifted
How To Make The Icing
Melt the butter in a small saucepan on low heat. Once the butter is melted, add brown sugar and heavy cream. Stir the mix constantly over medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Now add the salt. Make sure to allow it to bubble for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool (1 hour minimum). Beat in powdered sugar 1 cup at a time, until you reach desired consistency.
