Coffee and Maple Cream Sandwich Cookies
Vegan sandwich cookies with soft coffee-flavored biscuits and creamy maple filling. Basically, dessert's answer to emotional stability (and way cheaper).
Ingredients
Cookies:
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp sea salt
- ½ cup vegan butter softened
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp instant coffee
- 1 tbsp hot water
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp oat milk
Maple Cream Filling:
- ½ cup vegan butter
- ¾ cup powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- ½ tsp vanilla
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Light a maple candle for emotional ambiance.
- Mix flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Whisper words of affirmation.
- In another bowl, beat vegan butter and sugar until creamy. Add maple syrup, coffee (mixed with water), vanilla, and oat milk.
- Slowly combine dry mix into wet until dough forms. Try not to eat it all raw.
- Roll into 24 little dough blobs. Flatten on lined tray with sass and confidence.
- Bake for 12 minutes. Let cool completely before filling. Impatience ruins good cookies.
