Tiffany Sandwich Cookies

Hi Guys! I usually make or enjoy what my mom has made of this recipe every year since I can remember. This recipe is my mom’s best friend’s mom’s recipe from @nestletollhouse from 1961. They made it their own over the years with tweaks here and there and it is perfection. It takes a little bit of prep and effort to make, but they are well worth it. This is also my third time photographing it- I can’t get enough! My mom was just in town making these so I knew I had to include them in the #foodartfestiveproject with @stillsundayco @thesouthasiankitchen @foodartproject @fodory.com_ Thanks to Colby from @baxteracademy for her styling and photo assistance as well as hand modeling!
