It doesn’t get any better than that! 

If you love hazelnuts as much as I do, try adding some chopped nuts around the edges.

These holiday-perfect cookies are absolutely delicious.

Imagine taking an Oatmeal Creme Pie and Thin Mints and mashing them together. That’s sort of how I picture this recipe.

These cookies have the chewy soft outside and sweet, creamy filling of the Oatmeal Creme Pie.

But they have the chocolatey, minty perfection of Thin Mints. Yum!

4. Homemade Oatmeal Cream Pies

You know how books are always better than the movie? Well, the same can be said for homemade baked goods versus store-bought.

No shade to Little Debbie, but these homemade oatmeal cream pies are definitely better. 

They’re soft and chewy, but the outside is just a little crispy.

Meanwhile, the filling is a sweet, creamy vanilla buttercream that melts in your mouth. 

They’re buttery and perfectly delicious.

Ice cream sandwiches are the perfect summer treat.

They’re also excellent in the fall, winter, or spring… clearly, I just love them.

These tempting cookies are sugar, spice, and everything nice.

Featuring a marshmallow creme filling and ginger-spiced molasses cookie shells, they’re superb.

I adore Terry’s Chocolate Oranges and wish they were available all year.

There’s something special about the combination of citrus and dark, smooth chocolate, and these little cookies prove it.

Together, they’re enchanting and delicious!

If you think a cookie the size of your fist is too much cookie, keep scrolling.

If that sounds AMAZING, you need to try these snickerdoodle sandwiches. 

Chock-full of cinnamon sugar goodness, the only difference with this recipe is the size (and the filling, of course).

The cookie shells are made with simple shortbread. Then, they’re filled with a filling of your choice.

They’re gluten-free, too!

The whole thing melts in your mouth, and they’re even better with a sweet caramel latte on the side.

26. Viennese Whirls

These are, hands-down, my favorite cookie sandwiches.

Buttery, crumbly shortbread cookies filled with bright, sweet, fruity jam (and sometimes vanilla buttercream, too!), they’re absolutely perfect!

They taste like a strawberry shortcake; only the cookie is…well…a cookie!

If you’re not a fan of strawberries, that’s okay! Feel free to use any jam, jelly, or marmalade you like.

Or go in the other direction and add chocolate or nut butter to the middle.

Either way, these are addictive!

27. Lace Sandwich Cookies

If you’re a toffee enthusiast, like I consider myself to be, then you know it’s pretty darn tasty.

And you also know that it can break your teeth… which is a bummer.

Luckily, I have the solution. 

These lace sandwich cookies taste like toffee and chocolate.  Each thin and lacey cookie is buttery, nutty, and caramelized.

They’re so delicious. 

But slathered with melted chocolate, they’re chewy, crispy, and wonderful. 

28. Devil’s Food Whoopie Pie

These devil’s food whoopie pies are sinfully delicious.

Thanks to the cake mix and store-bought frosting, they’re also crazy-easy to whip up! 

All you need is a box of Devil’s Food cake mix, eggs, and canola oil. The cookies are soft, chocolatey, and taste just like OG whoopie pie cookies. 

Then, you sandwich pre-made cream cheese frosting in the middle and roll them around in fun sprinkles of your choice.

They’re delightful, and everyone will love them. 

29. Fudge-Filled Double Cruncher Cookies

If you love desserts filled with texture, flavor, and happiness, you need to try these. 

The cookies are soft, crunchy, and chewy all in one.

Cornflakes, oats, and coconut contribute to their fantastic texture, while butter and white and brown sugars add tons of flavor.

Jam-packed with soft, silky, and tangy chocolate fudge frosting, they’re super-duper indulgent, and each bite is heavenly. 

30. Lemon Blueberry Whoopie Pie

Lemon and blueberry are a super flavor combination that you’ll find in cakes, muffins, sweet bread, pancakes, and these delicious whoopie pies.

Each cake-like cookie is lemony and bursting with fresh blueberries. They’re dense and moist, just like a muffin top!

But, wait, there’s more!

Two of those tasty cookies are squished around a tart, lemony cream cheese frosting.

They’re bright, juicy, fruity, and the embodiment of summer.
