How Oatmeal Creme Pies Are Made

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit. Prep a cookie sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl combine the wet ingredients: melted butter, milk, molasses, vanilla extract and both sugars. Whisk until thoroughly combined. Add the dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt and old-fashioned oats on top of the wet mixture. Mix together until combined.

Take the prepared baking sheet and with a large cookie scoop add the cookie batter onto the baking sheet. Place in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes.

While that is baking, in a medium bowl combine the dairy free cream cheese and butter. Use a whisk or hand mixer to blend in the powdered sugar until a thick frosting has formed. Add the vanilla and 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk, use your judgment based on how thick the frosting is. Scoop the frosting into a plastic bag or piping bag and snip about ½ inch from the end of the bag.

Once out of the oven, let the cookies cool on a wire rack for 20 minutes. Take the frosting bag and pipe a circular layer of frosting on half of the cookies on the baking sheet. Take the other half of the cookies and place on top to create the creme pies.
