Chocolate Sandwich Cookies

Well, a good tart needs a good crust. Some of the easiest ones generally use graham crackers or cookie crusts. You can go the easy route, I won’t judge (much), or you can make your own cookies to make the crust. And that’s just what I did with this recipe.

This recipe makes more than enough to enjoy some sandwich cookies for a midday snack (or breakfast) and make your tart crust.

The filling is a simple buttercream filling. Which I like because it was quick and easy to make with minimal effort. Save a few cookies. I kept 8 off to the side that I did not fill. These cookies are going to get pulverized to make my cookie crust for my tart on Friday.

This recipe is part two of a three-part series, including homemade Chocolate Hazelnut Spread and a Chocolate Hazelnut Tart.
