Cinnamon Red Hot Buttercream Stuffed Oatmeal Sandwich Cookies Recipes

CINNAMON RED HOT BUTTERCREAM STUFFED OATMEAL SANDWICH COOKIES

Steps:

• Make the cookies
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
• In the large bowl of a stand mixer affixed with the paddle attachment or in a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy, about two to three minutes.
• Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
• Add the vanilla extract and mix well.
• Place a sifter over the bowl and sift in the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Add the oats. Mix just until blended.
• Place rounded tablespoonfuls of dough onto a nonstick, ungreased cookie sheet (or line the cookie sheet with a silpat).
• Bake for about 8 minutes, until the cookies are set and the edges begin to brown.
• Remove from oven and let cool on the cookie sheet for about five minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Make the cinnamon red hot buttercream frosting
• In a very small saucepan, add 1/4 cup cinnamon red hot candies and 1/4 cup water. Stir frequently over low heat until candies are dissolved, about 10 minutes, and remove from heat. Cool to room temperature.
• Using a food processor, crush the remaining 1/4 cup cinnamon red hot candies until pulverized. Set aside.
• In a stand mixer affixed with the paddle attachment, beat the butter at medium speed until pale and fluffy, about one minute.
• Reduce the mixer speed to low and slowly add the powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time until each addition is well-incorporated. Increase speed to medium and beat for about a minute, scraping down the sides if necessary, until light and fluffy.
• Reduce the heat to low and slowly drizzle in the cinnamon red hot syrup. Add the pulverized candies and the pinch of salt and mix, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, until well-combined.
• Assemble the cookies
• Note: I like to use a pastry bag or a Ziploc bag with a frosting tip to make quick work of filling sandwich cookies, but you can use a knife, too.
• Turn half of the cookies upside down and add about 2 - 3 tablespoons of frosting to each upside-down cookie by simply squeezing a generous circle of icing from your pastry bag or Ziploc bag, or spread with a knife. Top with the second cookie.
• Cookies will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 - 3 days.

CHOCOLATE-STUFFED OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Prepare the cookie dough: In the bowl of a food processor, combine the butter and both sugars and process until combined. Add the egg and vanilla and pulse to combine, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed.
• Add the oats, flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt, and process until combined and the oats have broken down a bit, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally.
• Transfer the dough to a large piece of plastic wrap and use the sides of the plastic to shape it into a flat, 8-inch square that is about 1/2-inch thick. Chill until firm, at least 2 hours.
• Prepare the filling: Heat the cream in a small saucepan or in a bowl in the microwave until hot. (Be careful: Cream loves to boil over.) Add the chocolate, vanilla and salt to the hot cream and let stand 2 minutes, then stir until smooth and uniform. (If not fully smooth, carefully heat a bit longer on the stovetop, stirring until smooth, or heat in the microwave in 5-second spurts, stirring after each blast, until smooth.) Transfer the filling to a large piece of plastic wrap and use the sides of the plastic to shape it into a 4- to 6-inch square. Chill until firm, at least 2 hours.
• Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Cut the cookie dough into 24 equal pieces. Cut the chocolate filling into 12 equal pieces. (It's OK if the chocolate breaks a bit; just make sure you have 12 equal piles.) Flatten one piece of cookie dough slightly. Set a piece of chocolate filling into the center. Flatten another piece of cookie dough and set it on top of the chocolate filling. Use your hands to shape the cookie dough around the filling and then roll it into a neat ball. Repeat with the rest of the dough and filling.
• Set 6 dough balls onto one of the prepared sheets. Bake until set and relatively flat, with just-golden edges, 14 to 16 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer to a rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining cookies on the other baking sheet. Serve cookies warm or at room temperature.
