Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix all the dry ingredients (oats, flour, sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.) Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl (or mixer), mix peanut butter, softened butter, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
  4. Pour dry ingredients into peanut butter mixture, stirring until just mixed. (Don’t forget to scrape the bottom of the bowl.)
  5. Place rounded teaspoonfuls of cookie dough on an ungreased, foil-lined baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch between each one. (I used a jelly roll pan and was able to fit 5 short rows of 4 cookies – 20 total). Using your fingers, gently pat dough down so they form small semi-flattened circles.
  6. Bake for 8 minutes. Let cool completely on cookie sheet before removing.
  7. While the cookies are baking, whisk together the powdered sugar and peanut butter until light and airy, about 5 minutes.
  8. On your work surface, place half of the cookies upside down. Whisk the filling to lighten it. Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of filling into the center of each upside down cookie. Place second cookie on top of filling and press together until filling just comes to the edges! Makes approximately 2 dozen SANDWICH cookies (48 total cookies).
