• Add the oats, flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt, and process until combined and the oats have broken down a bit, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally.
• Transfer the dough to a large piece of plastic wrap and use the sides of the plastic to shape it into a flat, 8-inch square that is about 1/2-inch thick. Chill until firm, at least 2 hours.
• Prepare the filling: Heat the cream in a small saucepan or in a bowl in the microwave until hot. (Be careful: Cream loves to boil over.) Add the chocolate, vanilla and salt to the hot cream and let stand 2 minutes, then stir until smooth and uniform. (If not fully smooth, carefully heat a bit longer on the stovetop, stirring until smooth, or heat in the microwave in 5-second spurts, stirring after each blast, until smooth.) Transfer the filling to a large piece of plastic wrap and use the sides of the plastic to shape it into a 4- to 6-inch square. Chill until firm, at least 2 hours.

Flatten one piece of cookie dough slightly. Set a piece of chocolate filling into the center. Flatten another piece of cookie dough and set it on top of the chocolate filling. Use your hands to shape the cookie dough around the filling and then roll it into a neat ball. Repeat with the rest of the dough and filling.
