Vanilla Sandwich Cookies

• Cookie
• 2 (18 1/4 ounce) boxes French vanilla cake mix or (18 1/4 ounce) boxes yellow cake mix
• 1 cup butter, melted
• 2 large eggs
• Filling
• 1/2 cup butter, softened to room temperature
• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened to room temperature
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 (1 lb) box powdered sugar

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cookie ingredients.
3. Roll dough into 1 1/2 inch balls (ping pong ball-size) and place on a greased or parchment-lined cookie sheet. Make sure you have an even number of cookies. Smash the balls down just a bit.
4. Bake for about 7-8 minutes. Take them out of the oven when the tops have cracked a little.
5. Let them sit on the hot cookie sheet for 2 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to finish cooling.
6. Make the filling: With a mixer, cream the butter and cream cheese. Add the vanilla. Gradually add the powdered sugar and mix until smooth.
7. Frost the underside of a cookie and place another cookie on top.
8. Wrap individually in plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator.
