FUNFETTI COOKIE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Place the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. The butter will melt and start to foam then orangey-brown bits will form on the bottom of the pan. This process should take about 5 minutes.
• Transfer the brown butter to a small bowl and chill until the butter has firmed up, but is still soft.
• In a large bowl using a hand mixer or a stand mixer beat the brown butter and the sugar until well combined.
• Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the vanilla and combine again.
• In a medium bowl combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until well combined and free of lumps.
• Mix the dry ingredients into the butter mixture until just combined. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat your oven to 350° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop about 1 1⁄2-2 tablespoons of cookie dough and roll into a ball. Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet at least 2 inches apart. Press the dough balls down slightly to flatten.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through baking.Remove the cookie from the oven and allow them to cool completely on the cookie sheet.
• Using a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment or a hand mixer, beat the butter until it is very soft and creamy.
• Add the salt, vanilla, half of the powdered sugar, and milk and beat until fully combined and smooth. Add the rest of the powdered sugar and beat for 5-6 minutes or until the buttercream is fluffy. If the buttercream is too thick you can add 1 tablespoon or so of milk as needed.
• Match each cookie up with a similar sized cookie.
• On the inside of one cookie spread a generous amount of buttercream. Place the other cookie on top and press down firmly to squish the buttercream all of the way to the edges of the cookies.
• Roll the edges of the cookies in the sprinkles until the buttercream is well coated.
