Very yummy, soft cookies! I am not a big cookie person but decided to make these up for friends, and they turned out very nice! The first few i made too big and they were too soft really for filling, then i got the idea to try my 'cookie press' with the flower disk, and they turned out perfect for sandwich cookies, and due to the hole left in the middle by it, i only had to bake them for 6 min. I used 'andes' creme de mint' baking bits for the filling and it worked great! :) Thanks for the great recipe, I'm already thinking about ways it can be varried :)
