Ingredients: ***Cookies*** 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 cup quick oats (not instant) 1 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed 1/2 cup salted butter, softened 1 large egg 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract ***Filling*** 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter 1/4 cup salted butter, softened 2 tablespoons half and half 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 1 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
Directions: Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
In medium bowl combine flour, soda, cinnamon and oats. Mix well with a wire whisk. Set aside.
Cream sugar and butter in a large bowl using an electric mixer set at medium speed. Add the flour-oat mixture, and blend at low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
Separate dough into two balls, flatten them into disks, and wrap each tightly in plastic wrap or a plastic bag. Chill 1 hour.
On floured board using a floured rolling pin, roll out one disk to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut cookies with a 2-inch round fluted cookie cutter dipped in flour.
Repeat procedure with the second disk, reworking scraps until all the dough is used. Bake cookies on ungreased baking sheets 1/2 inch apart for 13-15 minutes or until bottoms turn light brown.
Transfer immediately to a cool, flat surface with a spatula. When cookies are cool, spread 1 tablespoon of peanut butter filling on the bottom side of a cookies. Top with another cookie-bottom side toward the filling-to make a sandwich. Repeat with the remaining cookies and filling.
