Well, let me tell ya, makin’ these confetti cookie sandwiches is easier than bakin’ a pie, and they sure do taste better! Now, don’t be scared off by the fancy name, alright? Ain’t nothin’ fancy about ’em, just some good ol’ cookies with a little bit of color and sweetness to make ya smile. You’re gonna need a few simple things, mostly stuff you probably got in your kitchen already. So let’s get right to it, we’re gonna need:
- All purpose flour
- Baking powder
- Cream of tartar
- Baking soda
- Fine sea salt
- Unsalted butter
- Granulated sugar
- Vanilla extract
- Large egg
- Sprinkles (Oh, don’t forget ’em, they’re the star of the show!)
Now, once you’ve got all that ready, it’s time to get bakin’. First thing you gotta do is mix your dry ingredients. So, get your flour, bakin’ powder, bakin’ soda, and salt, and put ‘em in a bowl. Give ‘em a good stir so they all get mixed up nice and even. Don’t rush it, you want everything to come together smooth, like when you’re stirrin’ soup on a cold day.
Next, you’re gonna need another bowl, big enough to fit the butter and sugar. Softened butter is what you need here, not cold butter like you’d put on toast, no sir. Soften it up a bit by lettin’ it sit out on the counter for a while. Once it’s soft enough, throw it in the bowl along with your sugar, and beat it together until it’s all creamy and smooth. It’s like makin’ a good batch of mashed potatoes, just keep goin’ till it’s all mixed up.
Then, crack that egg in there, and add the vanilla extract. I don’t know about you, but that smell of vanilla makes my whole kitchen smell like heaven. Stir it all up, real good. Now, slowly start addin’ your dry ingredients from the other bowl, little by little, mixin’ as you go. It might seem a bit stiff at first, but don’t you worry, that’s how it’s supposed to be. Keep mixin’ till it all comes together like dough.
Now here comes the fun part – sprinkles! Take a good handful of those colorful little sprinkles, and fold ‘em right into your dough. Don’t be shy, throw in plenty. The more, the better, if you ask me! Once that’s done, it’s time to scoop out the dough onto your baking sheet. You can use a spoon or a cookie scoop, whatever you’ve got handy. Just make sure they’re all spaced out a little, ‘cause they’re gonna spread out while bakin’.
Pop those cookies in the oven, preheated to 350°F (or 175°C for ya folks who like the metric system), and bake ‘em for about 10 to 12 minutes. You want ‘em golden around the edges but still soft in the middle. Don’t overcook ‘em, or they’ll be too crunchy, and you want these to be chewy and soft.
While they’re bakin’, you can start workin’ on the filling. Just grab some more butter and powdered sugar, and beat ‘em together till it’s all smooth. You can add a bit of vanilla if you like, just to give it a little extra flavor. Once your cookies are all baked and cooled down, it’s time to make the sandwiches. Take one cookie, spread some of that sweet buttercream on top, and then press another cookie down on top of it. Like a little cookie sandwich, and it’s a treat fit for a queen! Or a grandma, like me.
There ya go! Now you got yourself a batch of confetti cookie sandwiches that’ll make anyone’s day. They’re colorful, sweet, and real tasty. You can share ’em with the neighbors or keep ‘em all to yourself, I ain’t judgin’! Either way, you’re gonna love these little bites of joy. Trust me, once you try ‘em, you’ll be makin’ ’em again and again. Ain’t no shame in that, neither. Happy bakin’, y’all!
