Christmas may be past, but there’s still time for one more batch of cookies before the New Year’s resolutions begin, right?

Monster Cookies are one of my all-time favorite types of cookies. I mean, M&M’s AND chocolate chips? Yes please! This recipe takes them to the next level by turning Monster Cookies into a delicious sandwich.

Between two Monster Cookies is a simple, 3-ingredient frosting filling. It only takes a couple extra minutes to whip up the filling and spread it in between the cookies.

From now on, all cookies should be sandwich cookies. Agree? You’ve got to try these and you will be convinced, too.
