Time 1h40m

Yield 8 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 3/4 cups (160 grams) old fashioned oats
1 cup (135 grams) all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup (113 grams) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 1/4 cups (250 grams) light brown sugar
1 large egg
1 tablespoon molasses
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups (300 grams) rainbow chocolate chips or mini candy-coated chocolates
6 ounces (150 grams) cream cheese, at room temperature
1/4 cup (56 grams) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup (60 grams) unrefined coconut oil, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups (180 grams) powdered sugar
Couple pinches kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • For the oatmeal pies: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F and line 2 sheet pans with silicone mats or parchment paper.
  • Combine the oats, flour, salt and baking soda in a medium bowl and set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle, cream together the butter and brown sugar until creamy and light, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the egg, molasses and vanilla extract and whip together until fully combined, about 30 seconds. Add the dry ingredients and mix until just incorporated. Mix in the chocolate chips. Portion the dough into 16 balls that are about 3 heaping tablespoons each and space an inch apart on the sheet pans. Bake until the edges are golden but the centers are still soft and slightly underset, begin checking at 12 minutes. Allow to cool on the pans, about 15 minutes, then cool completely on a rack.
  • For the filling: Cream together the cream cheese, butter and coconut oil in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until smooth and light, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add the powdered sugar, salt and vanilla extract and whip until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Place a heaping tablespoon-size blob of filling on the underside of a cookie, then sandwich with another. Eat immediately or refrigerate for 20 to 30 minutes for the filling to firm up. Keep in an airtight container in the fridge.
