Christmas Cookie Sandwiches W/ Spiced Cream Cheese Frosting Recipe (with Video)

For decorating
1. On a tray, line up your 32 Goya Chocolate Maria Cookies into 16 pairs.
2. Use piping bags and icing/candy melts to draw on decorations on the top half of each cookie pair. Only 16 cookies will be decorated.
3. While the decorations harden, make the cream cheese frosting.
For the maple cream cheese frosting
1. In a large mixing bowl, beat 8 oz of softened cream cheese until fluffy and no lumps remain.
2. Whip in 3 tbsp heavy cream until light and fluffy.
3. Add in ½ tsp salt, ½ tsp cinnamon, ¼ tsp nutmeg, and 3 tbsp maple syrup. Mix until fully combined—do not beat it for long. Avoid over mixing or the frosting may become runny.
4. Add 5 tbsp of powdered sugar, mixing until just combined, then taste.
5. If you'd like a sweeter frosting, add 1 tbsp of powdered sugar at a time until you reach your desired sweetness level.
6. Transfer to large piping bag.
Sandwich cookies
1. Pipe maple cream cheese frosting on the bottom cookie of each cookie pair. Top with the decorated cookie.
2. Enjoy!
