Inspired by the image, these homemade sandwich cookies feature soft oatmeal cookies with a rich, peanut buttery cream filling that melts perfectly between each bite.

Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to recreate these soft and chewy oatmeal cream pies with a Copycat Nutter Butters twist:

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup brown sugar
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 2 cups rolled oats

For the creamy filling:

• ½ cup peanut butter
• ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 2–3 tablespoons milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Cookie Dough

In a large bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla extract. In another bowl, combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually mix dry ingredients into the wet mixture, then fold in rolled oats.

2. Shape and Bake

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Scoop small portions of dough and place them on a lined baking tray. Slightly flatten each cookie to create that classic soft oatmeal cookie shape. Bake for 10–12 minutes until edges are golden and centers remain soft. Let them cool completely.

3. Make the Filling

In a mixing bowl, beat together peanut butter and butter until smooth. Add powdered sugar gradually, then mix in milk and vanilla until you get a creamy, spreadable consistency.

4. Assemble the Cream Pies

Spread a generous layer of filling on one cookie and sandwich it with another. Press gently to create that thick, creamy center just like in the image.

Tips for Perfect Texture

• Use room temperature ingredients for smoother mixing
• Do not overbake, cookies should stay soft and chewy
• Chill dough for 20 minutes if cookies spread too much
• Add extra oats for a more textured bite

Suggested Pairings

These oatmeal cream pies pair beautifully with:

• A cold glass of milk
• Hot coffee or latte
• Vanilla ice cream for a dessert twist

Storage Instructions

Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer freshness, refrigerate for up to a week. To enjoy that soft texture again, let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving.
