Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookies
These cookies are like the girl scout oatmeal peanut butter sandwich cookies only better. How can that be, you ask? I don't know, but somehow, they just are. My daughter found this recipe on Allrecipes on their top 20 list for cookies and I tell it's on that list for darn good reason. These cookies are amazing. The filling is super creamy and peanut buttery delicious and the two outer cookies are yummy oatmeal cookies with a great chewy texture. If you prefer a crisper cookie just add a little extra time on the baking time. You've got to give these a try. Super YUM!!!

Ingredients
Directions
In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup butter or margarine, 1/2 cup peanut butter, white sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla. Add egg and beat well.
In another bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Add these dry ingredients to the creamed mixture. Stir. Add oatmeal and stir.
Drop by teaspoons onto greased baking sheet, and press each mound down with a fork to form 1/4 inch thick cookies. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 10 minutes, or until cookies are a light brown.
To Make Filling: Cream 3 tablespoons butter or margarine with the confectioners' sugar, 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter, and the cream. Spread filling onto half of the cooled cookies, then top with the other half to form sandwiches.
