Ingredients
  

For the Cookies
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, browned Browning adds a rich, nutty flavor.
  • 1 cup brown sugar Can substitute with coconut sugar for a deeper flavor.
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup sourdough discard Can substitute with buttermilk or yogurt.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Cream Filling
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the browned butter with the brown and granulated sugars until well-blended.
  3. Add the eggs, sourdough discard, and vanilla extract, mixing until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until evenly combined.
  5. Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently to combine.
Baking
  1. Using a spoon, drop tablespoon-sized mounds of dough onto your prepared baking sheets.
  2. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges turn a lovely golden brown. Allow the cookies to cool completely.
Filling
  1. For the cream filling, beat together the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until fluffy and smooth.
  2. Generously spread the cream filling on the flat side of one cookie and top it with another to form a sandwich.
