Homemade Nutter Butters

I found these yummy cookies here and made them for Seminary Kick-off. I renamed them homemade Nutter Butters and they were yummy! I doubled the recipe and it made about 3-4 dozen sandwich cookies. It's a fun one for the kids to help with because it doesn't matter if the filling gets spread perfectly or not! Don't be shy when spreading the filling... it makes plenty! Also, it helps to chill the dough a little.

INGREDIENTS
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup quick cooking oats
3 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
2 1/2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream

DIRECTIONS
In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup butter or margarine, 1/2 cup peanut butter, white sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla. Add egg and beat well.
In another bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Add these dry ingredients to the creamed mixture. Stir. Add oatmeal and stir.
Drop by rounded teaspoons onto greased baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes, or until cookies are a light brown.
To Make Filling: Cream 3 tablespoons butter or margarine with the confectioners' sugar, 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter, and the cream. Spread filling onto half of the cooled cookies, then top with the other half to form sandwiches.
