    Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies

    Do you remember these Tagalong Bars that I made because I never did see a Girl Scout to pick up a package of cookies? Well, Girl Scout cookie season came and went and I still didn't get my package of peanut butter sandwich cookies. So naturally, I made my own.

    Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies

    Only these were better! Soft, chewy and extremely peanut buttery. What's more, they only have 4 ingredients and take about 5 minutes to prepare! All of you gluten free people will LOVE this recipe because it is flourless!

    I came across this recipe via pinterest and it originates from PBS.org. I knew it would be perfect to sandwich some silky peanut butter frosting.

    I even saved a few cookies to make ice cream sandwiches with this delicious ice cream. Have you heard of Straus Creamery Organic Ice Cream. I picked it up at Whole Foods Market last week and it was ah-mazing! Brown Sugar Banana...need I say more?

    Sorry about the horrible picture. My camera card decided that it was full while photographing these sandwiches, which resulted in melted sandwiches. I knew if I  put them back in the freezer, the next time I would go to get them they would be gone (the beast, my husband was hovering over me while taking the pictures).

      Very cool recipe. Love that you added the "cream" filling yes just like a Girl Scout tagalong.

      On the pbs.org website one commenter thought there was too much sugar, what do you think?

      Exactly like the 'Real Simple' one I have for about 5 years now. Only difference is brown sugar in place of white. Will make these later.
