Do you ever just find yourself daydreaming about cookies? I do, quiet often, more often than I care to admit. Luckily I have the luxury of using my job as an excuse for my fixation for these sweet treats, in all honesty it’s just because I goddamn love a good cookie! These oat and blueberry cookie pies are the perfect afternoon treat, just try and stop at one.
In my mind these giants were supposed to be adorable little cookies sandwiched with butter cream and jam, nothing more than a mouthful. As you can see, I didn’t quite manage the dainty little morsels I set out to make. My inner monologue seemed to take over while I was rolling the dough, ‘that’s not big enough’, was repeating over and over in my head till I eventually ended up with these monstrous cookie pies.
These babies are super adaptable. Just replace the dried blueberries with whatever you’ve got on hand, I’m thinking chocolate chips with a peanut butter and Nutella centre next time.
