Cookies, cookies, cookies….. you can never eat or have enough cookies on hand. I’ve always wanted to make a cookie sandwich and I decided it was finally time to try it out.
I am working with International Delight to try out their new Cold Stone Flavors. After checking out all the different flavors I decided on the Founder’s Favorite. You can never go wrong with a company claiming that something is their favorite. It’s kind of like going to a restaurant and asking them what they recommend on the menu and then turning away from those choices. It’s not wrong if you do but I always end up picking something they list. In this case, it wasn’t going to be any different.
Next on my list was coming up with a cookie recipe that would showcase the creamer. I’ve never used creamer in my cookie recipes so it was definitely a nail biting experience as I waited for the first batch to bake. They baked perfectly with a crunchy exterior and a soft and gooey interior. Just the way my family likes them (OK just Shaun and me).
Now that the cookies came out just right it was on to the icing. I used chocolate chips and peanut butter morsels in the cookies so it made sense that I needed to make a light peanut butter icing for the center.
GUESS WHAT??? There is International Delight Cold Stone creamer in the icing.

For the Cookies
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Cream the butter and sugars together until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Add salt, espresso powder, vanilla, baking soda and ID creamer. Slowly add the flour one cup at a time. Using a spoon stir in the chocolate chip and peanut butter morsels.
Make cookie balls about the size of a Tablespoon. Place them on a silicone mat on a baking sheet and cook for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let them cool for 2 minutes before placing on a wire rack.
For the Icing
Place all of the ingredients into a large bowl. Using a hand mixer beat until consistency is smooth about 3-4 minutes.
Place the icing in a piping bag and place on every other cookie. Top with another cookie.
