Red Velvet Sandwich Cookies Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 (18.25 ounce) box red velvet cake mix
• 2 eggs, lightly beaten
• ½ cup vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon bourbon

*Icing:

• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
• ¼ cup butter, softened
• 2 teaspoons evaporated milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• ½ cup shredded coconut
• 4 cups powdered sugar
  

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large bowl, mix the cake powder, eggs, oil, and bourbon together until well combined. Roll the dough into balls about the size of a walnut. Place them 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet.
3. Bake in the preheated oven until the tops start to crack, about 8 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
4. In a large bowl, mix the cream cheese, butter, condensed milk, vanilla, and coconut together. Gradually add the powdered sugar, one cup at a time, mixing well after each addition. If the consistency is too thick, add milk.
5. Spread a generous amount of the cream mixture on the bottom of one cookie, then sandwich it with another cookie, pressing down to spread the filling evenly.
6. You can get creative by rolling the edges of the sandwich cookies in shredded coconut, fruit jam bits, chopped walnuts, chocolate chips, etc. to add decoration and new flavors to the cookies.
