Ingredients:

1 Pack Carb Counters™ Everyday Gourmet Cookies
1/3 cup Carb Counters™ Gluten Free Whip It Up™ Instant Dessert Maker (Packed)
3 Tablespoons Water

Instructions:

In small bowl, place the Whip It Up™ and 3 Tablespoons water, adding food coloring or see below for natural berry juice substituted for coloring as desired.

Stir until water is mixed in. Turn half of the cookies over so the flat bottom side is up.

Spoon a teaspoonful of the filling into the center of each of the turned up cookies.

Top with the remaining half, bottom side down, and press gently to spread out filling.

Cook’s Tip: If you would like to make a chocolate filling, like for the peanut butter Cookies, add 1-1/2 teaspoons cocoa to the vanilla flavor or use the chocolate flavor Whip It Up™.

Freeze for 15 minutes or chill until filling is firm. Store covered in fridge or freezer. Makes delicious “tea” time cookies too.

Makes 6 to 8 sandwich cookies. Recipe may be doubled of course.

Note: when choosing cookie flavors, the small bags of cookies have 12 cookies in them (will make 6 sandwich cookies) and the large bulk bags have 36 cookies (would make 18 sandwich cookies if recipe was doubled. It's fun to mix and match so buying the smaller bags allows you experiment and save at the 3’fer price too.

2-1/2 net carbs per sandwich cookie. Enjoy!

Variations:

Add unsweetened coconut to filling, or chop the coconut and roll in cookies before chilling.
Add chopped nuts to filling or roll the cookies in nuts before chilling.
To color the filling naturally: Replace the water with crushed strawberries or strawberry juice. Want blue or green natural coloring? Use blueberry juice for the blue and a bit of squeezed spinach for the green.
