Instructions
Preheat oven to 180 degrees celsius. Line and grease a cookie tray.
Combine all ingredients into a bowl for the 'cookie' recipe. Using a spoon, scoop out mixture onto the lined cookie tray. Press down using a fork or your fingers to form a cookie shape (I got around 20 cookies as i made my cookies nice and thin)
Place in the oven and bake until golden brown (takes between 10-12 mins).
While cookies are baking, place ingredients for the filling in a bowl and combine well.
Once cookies are ready, take out and allow to cool. Cookies must be cooled fully before trying to add filling as filling will then melt!
Pair up each cookie with a partner, and spread or pipe 1-2 tbsp filling onto one cookie. Top with desired toppings mentioned above, then place the second cookie on-top. Repeat until all cookies have fillings! (if you have any left over filling i like to enjoy it with some fresh fruit- a delicious high protein snack!)
Store in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer!
