Buttery Sugar Wafer Sandwich Cookies
"My mom and grandma used to make similar cookies before Christmas, but I think they're too good to only eat once a year. They're a great springtime cookie, perfect for Easter, Mother's Day, or baby or bridal showers. The sugary wafter cookies are buttery, delicate, and literally melt-in-your-mouth. The buttercream is sweet, thick, dense and is the perfect compliment to the airy and light little cookies. This is a small batch recipe that's easily doubled. I adore these cookies!..."
