Preparation Steps

• Cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy.
• Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
• Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8-inch thickness. Cut out cookie shapes using a cookie cutter.
• Place cookies on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
• Let cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips with coconut oil (if using) in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
• Once cookies are completely cooled, spread a thin layer of melted chocolate on the flat side of one cookie and top with another cookie to form a sandwich.
• Let the chocolate set completely before serving or storing.
