Notes
- Use a piping bag or ice cream scoop to evenly add the cream filling to the cookies. Tip: make an easy piping bag by snipping off the end of a ziploc bag and then putting the cream filling through it.
- Watch the cookies closely while they bake so they don’t get overcooked.
- Use quick oats for the best taste and texture with this recipe. Old fashioned or steel cut oats will change the texture of the oatmeal cookie and affect baking time. Use a food processor to process the oatmeal into smaller pieces. I usually give it a few pulses (you don’t want fine crumbs).
- Allow the oatmeal cookies to cool completely before adding the cream filling. If they aren’t completely cooled, the cream pie filling will melt and you’ll have a sticky mess!
- Use margarine or butter-flavored Crisco for the best texture.
- Store cookies in airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
- Freeze in airtight container for up to 3 months. Thaw on counter in airtight container.
