OATMEAL BROWN BUTTER CREAM PIES
Oatmeal Brown Butter Cream Pies
Oatmeal Cookie:
1 cup butter (softened)
1 cup light brown sugar
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp cinnamon
3 cups rolled oats
Frosting:
1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese
½ cup butter(browned)
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 lb powdered sugar
Directions:
1)Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Or convection 325( I always prefer convection).
2)In a mixer cream together your butter and sugars until smooth.
3)Mix in your eggs until smooth.
4)Add in all your dry ingredients.
5)Slowly add in your rolled oats, don’t over mix.
6)Line your cookie sheet with parchment paper, and scoop your dough with a small/ medium cookie scooper. Bake for 15-20 mins, or until edges are golden brown. Reduce time if making a smaller cookie.
7)While cookies bake start making your frosting by placing butter in a medium saucepan and melt over medium heat, stirring often, until it foams, smells nutty, and browns. This will take about 5 to 7 minutes. Once butter is ready let it completely cool. If you want to speed up the process you can scrape the browned butter into a medium bowl and place the bowl in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or until the butter is completely cooled and is mostly resolidified.
8) In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the brown butter and cream cheese together until smooth. Add the vanilla and mix again.
9) Slowly mix in the confectioner's sugar, about ¾ cup at a time, until all the sugar has been added. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula and mix again until smooth.
10) To assemble the cream pies, pipe or spread the filling on the flat side of half of the cookies and put the remaining cookies on top.
11)Enjoy every yummy bite!
