ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Sandwich cookie

A sandwich cookie is a yummy treat where there are two cookies with a filling in between them, kind of like a hug for the filling! Imagine you have two crunchy cookies like graham crackers or Oreos, and you put something special and sweet like frosting, peanut butter, or jelly in between them. Then you press them together to make a delicious sandwich cookie!

It's just like building a little house with cookies instead of bricks! You put the two cookie walls together and make a little space for the yummy filling to live inside. Then you can decorate your sandwich cookie by adding sprinkles or dipping it in chocolate, or you can just enjoy it as it is!

Sometimes people like to eat their sandwich cookies by twisting them apart, licking off the filling, and then eating each cookie separately. It's like a little game you can play with your food!

One of the best things about sandwich cookies is that there are so many different flavors and fillings you can use! You can make them with chocolate cookies and vanilla filling, or with peanut butter cookies and chocolate filling, or with graham crackers and marshmallow filling like in a s'more! The possibilities are endless!
