Ingredients:

For the Cream Cheese Frosting:

  • 75g Soft Butter (Vegan butter sticks recommended)
  • 75g Cream Cheese at room temperature (Vegan cream cheese used here)
  • 1/4 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 70g Powdered Sugar

For the Oatmeal Cookies:

  • 110g Butter

  • 30ml Milk (Unsweetened almond milk or any milk of choice at room temperature)
  • 100g All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp Corn Starch
  • 185g Rolled Oats
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/2 tsp Salt

Instructions:

Cream Cheese Frosting:

  1. In a mixing bowl, whip the butter and powdered sugar using an electric whisk or a paddle attachment until fluffy and creamy.
  2. Add in the soft cream cheese and vanilla extract. Continue mixing for an additional minute until well combined. Set aside.

Oatmeal Cookies:

  1. In a mixing bowl, beat the butter using an electric whisk until soft and smooth.
  2. Add in both sugars, mixing for 2-3 minutes until well combined. Ensure you scrape down the sides to avoid any lumps.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine all the dry ingredients.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter and sugar mixture.
  5. Incorporate the milk into the cookie dough mixture, mixing on low speed until you achieve a consistent dough. (Note: If the dough feels dry, add a touch more milk. The dough should be slightly sticky to touch for a chewy cookie texture.)
  6. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  7. Using a 2 tablespoon scooper, scoop out the dough, rolling it into balls. Place them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper.
  8. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 12-13 minutes.
  9. If desired, use a round cookie cutter to reshape the cookies into a perfect round shape while they're still hot.
  10. Let the cookies cool completely.

Assembly:

  1. On one oatmeal cookie, swirl a generous amount of cream cheese frosting.
  2. Drizzle with your favorite caramel sauce.
  3. Top with another oatmeal cookie, pressing down gently.
  4. Repeat with the remaining cookies and enjoy!
