Blackberry Buttercream Double Chocolate Sandwich Cookie Recipe. Sweet blackberry buttercream sandwiched between two double chocolate cookies.
You all know how I love cookies (and cakes, truffles, ice cream… ) and these Blackberry Buttercream Double Chocolate Cookie Sandwich Cookies are my new favorite. This cookie is a total splurge that is worth every indulgent bite and calorie if you count those.
Here’s the breakdown of these amazing Blackberry Buttercream Double Chocolate Sandwich Cookies:
- Deliciously, springy and bright blackberries
- A big dollop of buttercream (go big or go home)
- Cookies that are made with melted dark chocolate
- Dark chocolate chips rolled into the batter, hence the “double” in the title.
Put it all of the above together and you’ve got one indulgent cookie!! Not to mention that deep chocolate brown and purplish pink hue is just the prettiest color combination.
For the photos and the season I chose to style with tulips. When I ran into the grocery store they looked so sad and picked over. They were drooping over the side of the bucket. Marked on clearance they were begging to come home with me.  I have to say they really became my favorite part of the photos because all by themselves they made me smile and think of spring. In addition they added a really nice softness to the crisp, deep brown cookies. So if you make these you must also go get some tulips for the full experience 😉 .
Enjoy!
