Happy December, Friends! 😀 We’re having an unusually warm start to December, which I’m stoked about because I’m not a fan of our typically arctic temps here in the Twin Cities once winter decides to waltz in. However, the frosty air does have a few redeeming qualities in my joy book: fuzzy slippers, scented candles, and cookies.
Of course, cookies. ‘Tis officially cookie baking season and we’re starting off with a cheerful bang.
Seeing that cookies and frosting are both superstars during the holidays, we’ve taken it upon ourselves to combine the two into one irresistible treat.
Introducing Chewy Snickerdoodle Sandwich Cookies. 🎉
These snickerdoodle sandwich cookies taste like you spent time on them, but these cookies are actually surprisingly easy. That makes these snickerdoodles a prime candidate for all the cookie exchanges, dessert tables, and holiday potlucks coming right up.

I’m thinking their organic products would make a super cute gift basket for any friend who loves to bake. 💗
Our Littles are pretty much in love with this silky frosting, and it’s easy to see why. It’s ultra creamy, rich, smooth, and flavorful.
The mama in me appreciates that there’s finally a convenient frosting that’s not only delicious, but also organic, non-GMO, and fair trade certified.
It’s also easily spreadable, which makes for happy snickerdoodle sandwich cookies. But really…any cupcake, cake, or brownie would be dazzled with some Wholesome Organic Frosting.
These snickerdoodle sandwich cookies are chewy – not cakey – and ideal for hugging some frosting.
We added cinnamon into the cookie dough for extra flavor, in addition to the cinna-sugar coating snickerdoodles are famous for. I have my Middle Little to thank for that idea. He suggested it, we went for it, and we’re forever keeping it.
Two toothsome snickerdoodle cookies, filled with velvety vanilla frosting = holiday joy in every single bite.
We’re so ready for December.
