From afar these sandwich cookies might look like Oreos, but they are in fact chocolate and stout cookies with buttercream filling in between them. Redditor hensandchicas adapted the cookie sandwich from a Crosby's recipe for soft and chewy chocolate molasses cookies.
Instead, the cookies have 1 tablespoon of molasses and a third of a cup of stout. The beer sandwich cookies also incorporate coarse sugar instead of the granulated variety. The creator "winged it" when it came to the filling, which also contains stout. The Redditor suggests eating the treats with the remaining beer, which seems like a much more appropriate choice than milk.
This drool worthy dessert is one beer lovers and people with a sweet tooth will both enjoy.
