Chocolate Lace Sandwich Cookies

"These delicate, crisp cookies bake and freeze well for up to 2 months. Two tips: the cookies tend to stick and spread, so be sure to use a nonstick baking sheet liner or parchment and don't bake more than 12 cookies at a time."

directions

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees with rack in middle of the oven.
  • In a medium bowl, mix oats, sugar and melted butter together with a wooden spoon. Stir in egg until well blended, then add vanilla and orange juice. Add flour and salt and stir to mix. Batter will be somewhat thick.
  • On a lined baking sheet, drop batter by half-teaspoonfuls at least 2 inches apart and up to 12 cookies per sheet pan. Bake until golden brown, 8-10 minutes. Keep an eye on these, they will go from golden brown to burnt very quickly.
  • Cool cookies on baking sheet just until they hold their shape, about 2 minutes. Dont let completely cool or they will be difficult to remove. With a thin spatula, transfer them to a cool rack and let cool completely.
  • Melt chocolate in a microwave safe bowl for 30 seconds at a time stirring until melted. Spread a thin layer of chocolate on a cookie and top with another cookie. Let chocolate harden about 2 hours before storing.

  1. This is a bit labor intensive but the cookies are delicious. A hit wherever I take them. I used parchment paper which made it easy. No need to grease the pan and no clean up.

I am a fitness instructor with a passion for cooking. I love to take recipes and see if I can convert them to something a little lighter but still tastes great.
