These chocolate sandwich cookies are one of my favorite treats to whip up when I need something special fast. With just forty five minutes from start to finish, they're perfect for busy weeknights or last minute gatherings. The cocoa powder in these cookies isn't just delicious, it's actually packed with antioxidants that make indulging feel a little bit better. The best part? You probably have most of these ingredients in your kitchen right now, so there's no need for a special trip to the store. They're wonderfully simple to make, yet they taste like something from a fancy bakery.
