• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp baking soda

For the creme filling

Instructions 

For the cookies

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream the butter and sugar until light, 3-5 minutes.
• Add eggs and mix until well incorporated, scraping the bowl to ensure even mixing.
• Add flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and oatmeal. Mix until no dry streaks remain. Scrape the bottom of the bowl for a final mix.
• On a parchment-lined baking sheet, make 1-ounce sized balls. Bake until the edges are set and the center springs back, 11-14 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and allow to cool 5 minutes before removing from pan. Cool on a cooling rack.

For the creme filling

• Beat all ingredients together until light, fluffy, and evenly incorporated. If too soft, add more powdered sugar, ¼ cup at a time; to soften, add additional milk.
• When the cookies are cooled, spread 1 teaspoon of filling on the bottom of one cookie. Top with another cookie. Continue until all cookies are used.
