Equipment

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and cornstarch. Gradually add this to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Stir in the oats and chocolate chips.
  4. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes. Allow cookies to cool completely.
  5. For the buttercream filling, beat the unsalted butter until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar and mix well. Add vanilla extract and enough heavy cream to reach desired consistency.
  6. Once cookies are cool, spread buttercream on one cookie and drizzle with salted caramel. Top with another cookie to form a sandwich.
