Instructions

Make the peanut butter oatmeal cookies:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment.
Place all the ingredients in a large bowl and stir together until combined.
Scoop balls about 1 tablespoon, and roll/squeeze together to shape (dough may be a bit crumbly but holds together well when pressed).
Place the balls on the prepared sheet pan and press flat with the bottom of a drinking glass.
Use a Wilton #10 piping tip to poke a little hole in the center (optional).
Bake for 10 minutes or until slightly golden around the edges. Cool completely on baking sheets*, then sandwich with filling.

Make the peanut butter creme filling:

Place the peanut butter and cream cheese in a large mixing bowl and whip until fluffy.
Add the powdered sugar, ½ cup at a time.
Add the salt.
Mix in the cream or milk, as needed, to achieve the proper consistency.

Notes

*Cookies will become crunchy as they cool but are very tender when fresh from the oven.
