Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray cookie sheets with nonstick cooking spray or greasing lightly.

  • 3. Add the egg and beat until mixed in. Stir in the oatmeal and flour until mixed in evenly.
  • 4. Using my fingers, I pinch about 1 tablespoon of dough and place in a somewhat rounded mound on cookie sheet, 1 1/2 inches apart. ( or can drop by spoonful) With the bottom of a glass, dip in sugar and flatten down each cookie to about 1/4 inch thick. Dipping in sugar after each cookie.
  • 5. Place cookies in oven and bake for 10 - 12 minutes or until lightly browned.
  • 6. Remove from sheet to a cooling rack.
  • 7. Make filling: Mix the 3 ingredients in a bowl, until well blended.
  • 8. Spread the frosting on the bottom of half of the cookies and then top with the other half to create the sandwich cookies.
  • 9. Enjoy!
