Hello everyone!

Today I am bringing to you the best peanut butter cookie sandwich recipe! I made these the other day and they were a hit in my house so I knew I had to share it with you all. These cookies are so easy to make and you only need simple ingredients that you may already have in your pantry. If you try these cookies out for yourself send me a picture on instagram @alittletouchofgold, I would love to see how they turn out. Happy baking!
